I’m starting to work my way through the hundreds of images we have from the Sonoma Workshop, and I thought I’d share the Cliff Notes from what I can tell so far. 
#1 If you can’t find any models, be your own model!
#2 If you don’t want to miss out make sure you turn on your Listening Ears!
#3 If you simply don’t care to listen any more because your the “host” either take self portraits of yourself or just start teaching yourself!
#4 When you feel like you’ve been sitting to long, go outside and JUMP!
#5 If the restaurant ran out of fresh strawberries for those brownies, improvise!
#6 Just because the image is blurry, doesn’t mean his face isn’t worth shooting!
#7 Make sure you “FOOF” your flash with total passion like Denis Reggie taught! (We love you Denis–and we were listening on the foofing! :))
#8 Try “FOOFING” outside too! See the many sides of FOOFING light. Brian’s face is a great example of the passion you must put into your FOOFING. Garrett is much more graceful about his foofing. (unsure of what foofing is, join us at a workshop and we’ll let you in on the secret :))
#9 And last but not least, when you all of a sudden realize this is a WOMEN’S workshop, show some muscle for intimidation rights!
If you like the Cliff Notes…full low down on the workshop coming soon!!
NIIIIIIIIIIIIIICE - refering to the last photo of course!
I totally agree with Denise… yum!
Me Ra, you need to add more workshop dates to the website. I still think we should get you and Brian to come out East! (Fall winery tour in Traverse City, Michigan - crossing my fingers!!)
LOL
OMG
;-0
All I can say is, “Funny, but true.”
I forget which I’m referring to; the blog post or comments?
OMG!!! I’m laughing so hard! You are killing me!!!
The kids just ran in to see what’s so funny… They think I’m a total loon!
Too funny!!!!
That pretty much tells the whole story in just a few images perfectly!
Ditto on coming east for a workshop!! You need some solid midwest representation for your workshops..Michigan,Chicago(northern Illinois). I am keeping my fingers crossed! Can’t wait to see pics from Sonoma.
funny stuff. That last shot of Brian looks like he was practicing fluffing; )
hahaha!!! way fun!!!!
So funny! Totally captures the fun of the weekend! I LOVE Garrett!
Damn that model is hot!!!
oh yeah you too Mr muscles!
HAHAHA! Those FOOFING shots are the best! Especially Garrett’s graceful style. All these sshots totally take me back to the weekend. Apparently I didn’t know I was going to a gun show, but I guess I was, right Brian?!?
Thanks to all for one unforgettable gathering. Thanks Amanda…..I’m turning red
FOOFING….too funny, love those pictures. Wow Brian…do you have a work-out trainer? 
And a special thanks to Me Ra…

Oh…the stud with the muscles! HUBBA HUBBA!
Looks like a great time was had by all. I sooo need to make it to a workshop!
These cliff notes are great!!! I can’t wait for the San Diego workshop!!!
Dana, I’m completely with you on that one! This just makes me look forward to the San Diego workshop even more… three weeks to go!!! I’m a-gettin’ excited!
Hilarious! I’m so excited for everyone in attendance! Amanda, can’t wait to hear first hand from you!
STILL laughing, and trying to eek out every last ounce of goodness shared in Sonoma.
Garrett…love your shy side. HA! And Brian, the fact that you were so quiet through the weekend is still disconcerting to me…
Thank you Me Ra for the amazing experience…Wish we were still there!
gooness, your workshop looks like so much fun, hopefully i will be able to make it out there someday for one! cheers!
LOL. Can’t wait to see more.
Looks like a “foofing” fun time! Glad to hear and see that it was a blast…
