Last night was the launch of the Portland PUG meeting hosted by
TJ Cameron and
Kevin Meyers....and of course the wonderful
Sara France was in town to kick it off. Sara did a wonderful job and I left the meeting so excited to start a business and include Pictage in the process! I have definately been exposed to Pictage but I had no idea of everything they have to offer! After hearing the pitch its hard to understand why a photographer WOULDNT want to join because it just makes everything a whole lot easier!
After the meeting they got together for a group picture and I offered to take it since I dont live here and wont be attending thier group. Anyway, Sara handed me her Mark II (which is completley foreign to me since I am used to shooting Nikon) and I began taking pictures but for some reason they were ALL out of focus...Sara looked at it and shot some test shots and they were great...she went back to the group, everyone smiled and they were out of focus again!!! We couldnt figure out what was going on! I think it was because it sensed I shoot Nikon and was rebelling!! ;)
Sara said it was because it only behaved for its mommy....which proved true when other people tried to shoot and there was the same problem :)
The group then went out to Hubers for a few hours and we saw this really cool bartender who came to our table and made these drinks light on fire!! Soooo awesome!
(The fire in those glasses was not photoshoped!! )
Here is the great Sara France...
