On Friday night, I went to Paige's house for a ladies night photo exchange. We all belong to the Pittsburgh group on Flickr. Paige (shown above in the green) and stephanie came up with this lovely idea to get together and exchange some of our photos amongst each other. Every one brought 5 photos to exchange and their favorite snack food. Paige was sweet enough to offer her house for the event. I dont have friends to hang out with so I jumped at the chance to meet new friends and talk photography and ladies things. After getting lost for 45 mins, I finally arrived at Paige's house and was welcomed with open arms by every one, which I will admit I was so used to being excluded that I made myself sick all day over how Id be treated. WOW is all I can say!These ladies were so wonderful and made every one feel like part of the group. We mingled and had some amazing snacks......I have to thank Julie (above in the white) for my new love of garlic hummus with Feta cheese..lol!!! We talked about everything from Top Chef and Hells Kitchen to Nina's life in Kiev, Ukraine and how she was "kicked out ". Then it was time for the photo fun to begin....Paige took every one's photos and laid them upside down on her furniture.....and let me tell you there were quite a few photos. Every one got amazing photos and Steph had all the photographer's sign their images, which I thought was a cool idea!!!!!!
These are just a sample of the many amazing images that were exchanged during the evening! The selective colored ones are the ones that I received but the two on the end of the couch are two of mine that someone received. I am still trying to find the perfect frames and the perfect spots on my walls for my images!!!!!!!
