Who: Meg + Charles (and thousands of other photographers from all over the world)
What: 2007 WPPI Photography Convention
When: March 23 - 30, 2007
Where: Las Vegas, NV

Charles and I had the awesome opportunity back in March to attend a huge photography convention for professional photographers hosted each year by WPPI (Wedding & Portrait Photographers International) in Las Vegas, NV. We spent the better part of a week shuffling from one seminar to the next, and when we weren’t in class you could find us on the tradeshow floor or trying to fit in a nap back in our room… well, that’s a bit deceptive, I suppose. It wasn’t ALL work - we did manage to fit in some sightseeing and even a few shows while we there - most noteably, Penn & Teller, Cirque de Soleil’s Mystere, Monty Python’s Spamalot, and even a hypnotist!

On our last day in Vegas, we forced ourselves to take some photos to share with everyone here (yup, I said ‘forced’ - because by our last night we were so exhausted we almost didn’t even take the camera with us!) :

We went the Rio to see Penn & Teller our first night in Vegas

In the lobby of our hotel - this was done the same way as the centerpieces from one of our August 2006 weddings that a few of our brides have asked about, so we took a few shots of this to share a more detailed look:

Spamalot starring John O’Hurley (of Seinfeld and Dancing with the Stars fame) was AWESOME!
