We're off to Arizona!!!

With only slight guilt leaving our husbands with the kids in sub zero degree weather in Minnesota, Melissa and I are leaving tomorrow for sunny, warm Phoenix, Arizona to immerse ourselves in the Professional Photographers of America (PPA) Annual Conference, Imaging USA.

I am very pleased to announce that Melissa has won first place prize in the 2008 AN-NE Marketing Awards for the Miroslavich Photography website, "Where Eyes Dance, Dimples Dip, Hearts Skip". How great is that????Melissa also received finalist recognition in two additional categories, Best Image Marketing Campaign and Emerging Pro 2008. She will be awarded a trophy at PPA's Awards & Degree Ceremony at Imaging USA on Tuesday January 13th. Entries from around the country were submitted to the Professional Photographers of America (PPA) for this prestigious competition. A panel of three marketing and graphic design professionals carefully reviewed the entries, judging them on a variety of criteria including creativity, content, impact, and consumer appeal. What an incredible honor!!

We are very excited to also see what is new and exciting in the world of photography as our agenda is full of workshops, seminars, exhibits and more. It will also be cool to connect with some of our photographer friends from all over the country and make new friends while we are there!

So, we are off tomorrow! I am sure we will have some adventures to tell you about while we are there and of course, we will be posting some images from our trip as well!!
