Julia Tulley Photography | Chicago Children's Photographer »

light and inspired

Last weekend I attended a workshop on natural light photography held by the fantastic Audrey Woulard.  I have been following Audrey’s work for quite awhile so to actually meet her in person (and to have the opportunity to learn from her!) was an incredible experience.  I think I was a little star-stuck, and I’m pretty sure I wasn’t the only one in the class to feel this way.  I will say this, since I know other photographers will ask if I don’t, Audrey is wonderful.  She is approachable, down-to-earth, and of course, an amazing photographer.  And yes, her workflow is really as simple as she claims it to be.  In an often over-complicated (photography) world, it was so refreshing to see her simplistic approach, and one that clearly works so well for her!
Here is just a sample of some general workshop awesomeness that the day brought.  The kids were all total troopers, and even though it was above 90 degrees all day, I never heard one of them complain.  They just kept smiling and jumping and doing whatever the 15 cameras pointed at them asked of them.  It was a great day and one in which I walked away from totally energized and inspired.

And here I am experiencing some end of the day exhaustion: a little sunburned, totally “brain-fried” (to use an Audrey expression), holding someone else’s camera, and super, super psyched to put all of my new knowledge into practice!

Julia, I’m so glad you got so much out of the workshop! Looks amazing, and I can’t wait to hear more about it when we get together (hopefully soon!). The pics are all great but I love the one of you at the end 🙂
