So last week (Tuesday-Wednesday) I had the pleasure of hosting the first EVER Professional Photographers of Nebraska Balance Retreat! We traveled south to an acreage in Virginia, NE (I bet you didn’t even know there was a town called Virginia, did you?!) for 24 hours of relaxation, bonding, and shenanigans. We had a great attendance—11 of us (plus 4 or 5 of our newest members) and it was just the perfect way to really get to know one another. We put our cells in a basket so we could really focus on ‘keeping our zen.’ We first, had a round table discussion on the stresses of running a small business, then we wrote letters to ourselves (to be mailed in the future when they least expect it!). Following that, we did a little yoga and meditation then a photo scavenger hunt, which was hilarious. I was please to see everyone’s creativity. After that, we ate and then had a fun model shoot with 3 giggly high school girls. They were champs. They left wet. After a night of campfire conversations, we slept in, ate a yummy breakfast and went for a long walk on the country roads.
Overall it was the best experience ever! I was extremely tired and in desperate need of a shower, but the photos speak for themselves. Can’t wait until our next PPN adventure! We’re thinking tubing down the Niobrara next Summer?
Kaitlyn - hooray for Tasha and Jamie going! Them are my buds! And girlfriend, iron your sign! I love the picture with the antler. You should probably send that to me so I can pimp it and your mad decorating skills. Looked like a fun time.
