Hi everyone!!  I hope you’ve all had an awesome Freyday so far 😉  (remember, same pronunciation as Friday!).  I wanted to share some quick images today that I got at yesterday’s Shutter Clique monthly meet-up.  It’s been a few years since Jennifer Williams and I first became friends because she had tweeted about this group she wanted to start here in Bakersfield where photographers could get together and meet one another and just shoot for fun!  We started with 4, then quickly became 10 and holy cow – last night, there were at least 50 photographers and about 8 models!  I was excited to see how large our group has grown (Facebook says we have 700 likes!) and how many friendships and 2nd shooters/assistants have formed through this group!

So if you’re a Bakersfield/local Central CA photographer (all levels welcome), check us out on facebook for up to date information and monthly gathering information:

Here are a few of the shots I got after getting there late after my own photo shoot – with my settings, so fellow photographers see what you think! Thanks Tim Chong for letting me test out the new Nikon D800 too!!

  Thank you models and shout out again to Jennifer Williams and Patrick Ang for continuing to provide a fun gathering each month for all of us to enjoy!!
