Go! STOP. Goooooo. Stop. Aaaaaand…go!

Posted on July 15, 2010 by Emily Lewin

I was looking at my blog today feeling it’s mournful lack of updates and thinking about all the reasons why I hadn’t posted. Here’s a brief rundown of a few of the things I’ve been up to since my last post. More extended posts of all these “previews” are coming soon!

Attended the MorningStar University Graduation

Traveled home from Charlotte.

Stopped for a wee bit, had a fantastic birthday party – complete with a creative mustache making competition…

Went to Seattle…

To help my dear friend Luz get married…

Luz & Cole were married on Saturday and then my friend Kendra got married to Jake on Sunday in Arvada, Colorado. Yes I had two weddings in two days in two states.

That brought me home in time to shoot engagement photos for Leigh and Mike…

And accomplish a challenging wedding day photography assignment for Ryan & Christy.

Now I’m back in North Carolina with my mom to have a little vacay at the beach with our extended family on her side!

I’m still running my Summer Portrait Specials through the end of August and then I’m moving to Charlotte, North Carolina! As you can tell my schedule books up fast so call or email soon to schedule your time with me!

Called Out 2009

Posted on September 1, 2009 by Emily Lewin

The non-profit that I work with called S.P.I.K.E. did an all night prayer service before Called Out 2009 the youth part of the Promise Keepers event in Boulder on August 1st. These are some photos I took in the middle of the night in the Coors Event Center.

DIVE

Posted on September 1, 2009 by Emily Lewin

I had the opportunity to go to a week long intensive music school for women in Charlotte, North Carolina called DIVE (Deep Innovative Vertical Expression.) There were 15 women from all over the country and one from London, England! It was an amazing experience. These are a few of my photos from that week.

One of our instructors, the amazing Paulette Wooten.

Some of the beautiful women in the program with me (it was a room full of beautiful talented women)!!

Some details from our dinner at Rita Springer’s house (the woman who hosted the school)

East Highschool 30th Reunion

Posted on August 30, 2009 by Emily Lewin

I had the opportunity to go with one of my mentors (Lynne Hart, Director of S.P.I.K.E.) to the first night of her 30th high school reunion and take some photos. It was a fun challenge to photograph a room full of people who I really didn’t know at all who were all just doing their thing. The quote of the night was “Oh my God, you look the same!” I asked Lynne if after 30 years everyone really looks the same…she told me to wait until my 30th highschool reunion and find out haha! It was much more of a photojournalistic type project and I enjoyed the chance to sharpen my invisibility skills.

Chicks Who Click 2009 – Social Media Conference

Posted on February 6, 2009 by Emily Lewin

In January I went to Chicks Who Click 2009, a social media conference geared toward women, in Boulder. I had a marvelous time, met amazing women, and learned many new things about social media. One of the conference organizers is my friend Gwen Bell who asked me to come take pictures. Here are some of my favorites from the event, as always you can click here to see the rest of the set on Flickr.

The first speaker, Jenny Slade from NCWIT.
