July 29, 2008

We were all nervous and anxious about Houston as it was the first night of the tour. We didn’t know what to expect: How many people will show up, what the atmosphere was going to be like, technical difficulties, etc. But to all our surprise, everything went smoothly. We had over 95 folks show up and Houston crowd did not disappoint! Everyone was eager to learn from DJ and Jasmine. Everyone loves DJ and couldn’t wait to hear him speak. This was Jasmine’s first speaking engagement but to our surprise, she did such an incredible job. The audience connected with her immediately and fell in love with her. She speaks from the heart and just like her blog, people were drawn to her. I thought this photo was pretty funny and summed up what I was talking about:

CAPTION: A NEW ‘STAR’ IS BORN

In all seriousness, the first night was a blast. DJ & Jasmine feed off each other really well – like a 1-2 combo punch! Do yourself a favor and sign up for this great workshop. You’ll have a chance to network with ton of photographers in your area, walk away challenged and inspired to become a better photographer/person and have a blast while doing it! You may get a sneak peak of the tour bus as well!

As I mentioned in my previous entry, I expect the Chicago folks to represent again by selling the most seats! I have some coupon codes to give away for 50% off so if you leave a nice comment here and email me at kenny@kennykim.com, I may send you one for your city (more likely if you are from Chicago!).
