Well, now that we’ve had some time to reflect on our recent Vegas experience, we’ve come to some conclusions on how we feel about Sin City.
It was craaaaaazy! In good ways and bad. The main reason we didn’t like it was because you just can’t turn it off when you want to. We don’t have anything against casinos or partying, we just want to be able to stop when we feel like it. There, you really have to work to find a place to escape the noise, lights, and smoke. It didn’t help that we were both under the weather, and hopefully next time we are there, we will be feeling better. Yes, we will be there again. With WPPI being held there every year, we will most certainly be there again. Our friends, the legendary John and Dalisa Cooper of AltF, live in Vegas, and we would, of course, go there to see them if invited.
The good part of the trip was most definitely seeing/meeting our friends from all over the world. You guys made it completely worthwhile (and you know who you are). We miss all of you already, and can’t wait to see you again!
Would we go back just to go there…..no. There are too many other places on this earth that we love and new places that we want to see where we would rather spend our time and money (and breathe clean air).
Next year, we will take our Airborne and Zicam everyday so hopefully we will stay healthy. Maybe we’ll tote an oxygen machine with us too. Either way, we have learned a little bit about Vegas, and hopefully what we’ve learned will make next year’s trip a little more enjoyable.
Enjoy a few photos below from the trip. A video from Still Motion will be released in a couple of days, and we are still working on our 4000 image slideshow, that we will hopefully have on here in a few days. The last set of images is the view from our hotel room….that was one thing that totally rocked.

Hi people, It’s Jason. Allison has been having fun with the blog diary so I thought i would jump in and say a few things.
First I want to say thank you to everyone I met out there in Vegas. I shot the whole week in mini bursts on the camera, I pulled a few stills off the slide show just to give you a little tease…
First off from left to right…the amazing Jason Cohen, next is yours truly and last but not least is one of my closest friends Mark Eric.
John and Dalisa showing off on what they do best. John was shooting a live concept shoot for our Shoot Shop Leavin Las Vegas
The final product of the concept shoot (permission to post by John) keep in mind that this was shot in direct sunlight at 11:30 in the morning.
Two of the nicest people ever to come out of the UK, Sofie and Paul from Amorphia Photography
The heartbeat of the four of us…Tana Huffman. Tana was the glue and the nails and the ductape that held all 4 (Tana, Sofie, Mark, Myself) of us together with dealing with the plans of a workshop.
Last but not least the best thing of the trip…the view from the hotel room.
