Well….we had an amazing time in Montana (as you have probably already figured out from previous posts). We finished our 3rd Montana workshop only 2 days ago and it feels like an eternity ago. I already miss Teresa, Montana and the wonderful photographers who came along. To those who did, thank you so very much for making the trip out and for being you. And of course, to our wonderful models also.

These are just a few of the many many shoots that we did – I had too many favs to pick from and since we are now having some down days in San Francisco thought better of spending it here on the laptop! So just a taste and will be sure to pop up more once Im home and on my usual pc!!!!

Pop over to our facebook page to see further goings on however – xoxoxoox.

(We have an opening in our Pittsburgh retreat for anyone who is interested! Email Debbie at jinkyartretreats@gmail.com)

We are in photographers’ heaven. I think. Quite possibly. Hamilton Montana – the place we received emails about asking “why would you go there! There is NOTHING in Hamilton Montana!”…. Don’t worry I really do understand why someone might think that a small town might be boring and not worth visiting however, to a photographer – oh it is so so dreamy. Its actually 10 times the size of the town we live in (and run workshops from) – so we feel so at home here. I feel overwhelmed with the fact that Hamilton actually has a large supermarket and even a toy store. Not only that, Hamilton has our host, Teresa, and her family, showing us all the secret antique places to shop (one of our favourite things to do) and showing us round. I feel forever in her debt for sharing her corner of the world with us.

So, playing with light here in Montana is ‘oh’ so enjoyable. And since we have been on a roll with butterfly wings – it only seemed right. We have so many pics from the workshops to post, and we have only had 2 so far..however here’s my Penny Butterfly….

Wow – what can I say?!! We are having such a great time here in America – especially in Montana. Oh Montana, how I adore thee! Meadowbrook farm is amazing (And our host Teresa and her family are so generous and oh so very welcoming). I loved meeting everyone who attended workshop 1 and cant wait for the rest!

Here are just some of the many many many many shoots we did at the first workshop. I will upload some of the family etc shoots later – oh and pics of the location..in the meantime..heres quick sneeky.

(We had some sad news come in from one of our attendees in one of the workshop coming up in Montana and she is unable to attend – if you would like her seat please email in ASAP jinkyartretreats@gmail.com).
