Bambi Cantrell, at the request of Glen Flett, came to Burlington, ON this past Monday for a workshop. As soon as I heard that she was coming, I knew that I had to be there. Bambi is one of the world’s most recognized wedding and portrait photographers and her style has been admired by many including me for many years. I have attended a webinar that she put on last fall and it was something that really changed my approach to photographing people. Having the chance to watch Bambi photograph and have her explain how to see the light, how she works when photographing a wedding, what she looks for for those extraordinary images and then actually having her help me with some posing, share her methods and business practices… well, I came away with my mind absolutely reeling and wanting to shoot a wedding like the next day!!!
We had a fabulous model (Glen’s receptionist – Laura) who really got into the swing of having ten photographers all taking photos at the same time. Laura was amazing and came through the afternoon session with unimaginable grace and good sportsmanship!

And being Bambi’s NUMBER ONE fan, I just had to have a photo taken with her. She was so gracious and allowed us to all have a photo with her if we wanted to.
In addition, I met a number of new photographer friends who came from as far away as Buckhorn, Ottawa, and even Hong Kong. It was a pleasure to meet all of you and I really look forward to chatting with you on FB or Twitter.
