Jeff and I realized last night as people began arriving at our house for our monthly Pictage User Group (PUG) meeting, that most of our photographer friends never actually get to see what our house normally looks like. Every month, we have to rearrange our little abode to even have a prayer of squeezing in the 30 or 40 photographers that lovingly invade our space, so for most photographers, it always looks like a complete wreck! I promise that we don't usually awkwardly prop our 46" flat screen TV on top of our corner shelf, and the main space is normally a fully functioning living and dining room - not a big empty hole with a table shoved against the wall! So as proof, Jeff had the forethought to capture our pre-PUG living space yesterday before it had its monthly makeover... (I know the dining room furniture needs little TLC, but that TLC will have to happen when life gives US a little TLC in the form of time...)

And here's the post-PUG makeover. We had a ton of new faces last night and it was so amazing to see everyone! Thanks so much for coming out!

Leon, owner and founder of Colorati and color-correction GENIUS, totally blew our minds with his endless stream of knowledge when it comes to color, technology, and, well, basically everything!!


Leon demonstrated his lightning quick speed at color-correction for us. This guy is fast. Really, really fast. And really, really, really good.


Again, thank you to everyone that came out last night! For information on next month's PUG, check out the details on the San Diego PUG page. Everyone is welcome - Pictage members, non-Pictage memebers, seasoned pros, or enthusiastic hobbysists - you're always welcome at Casa de Youngren!
Hugs,
Erin
