Bless your Cotton Socks!

"Bless your Cotton socks"
"Teach a Grandma how to suck eggs"

Oh how I love British Idioms!
Throw a marvelous British accent on there and you have the setting for entertaining laughter in a room full of American Wedding photographers .

Yesterday I had the privilege being in the company of some of Southern California's most prestigious weddings photographers for a special training on the new Aperture software. Thanks to the enduring patience of Martin, the product manager for Apples's new program Aperture who happens to hail from Britain, we managed to spend nearly five hours laughing at his british humor and drilling the poor gent with endless questions about the program.

Mike Colon ( wedding photographer extrodanair) was gracious enough to open his home for this event to the likes of other wedding-photography-heavyweights such as Becker, Jessica Claire, Joe Photo, Jon Barber, Dane Sanders, Aaron Delesie, Jim Kennedy, Mike Kitada, & Jasmine Star. A star studded event indeed ;)

This program seems fun like it will be awesome to implement! Im excited to see how it can work for me :)

(ps)
'Bless your cotton socks'= expressing a term of endearment for someone you care about. Sorta like "bless your heart"

'Try to teach a Grandma how to suck eggs'= Trying to offer advice to someone who has more experience than oneself.
