My Friends at Lacour

We study. Just like any professional we study our craft and perfect it and invest our time, money and energy to see how we can continually improve. I just got back into town from spending a few days with some friends of mine who hosted a workshop at their studio. They are LaCour, a photography studio in Atlanta.

They are among some of the best photographers I know of. In fact, they have been cited as one of the top ten photography studios in the world by American Photo.

I met Andrew Niesen a few years ago. He and I have become friends over the years as well as his wife Rachel and Erin and Mark who all make up LaCour. I’ve even had the chance to shoot a wedding alongside them in Macon.

It’s always fun to hang out with friends, hone your craft but one of the best things I enjoyed about the workshop was the genuine fellowship I have with them. We ate dinner last night together at Ecco in Atlanta and I had a chance to meet Rachel’s mom and dad. They were both so amazing and I can see where Rachel gets a lot of her compassion from. Her brother was also there with his wife and they kept cracking everyone up at the table. Melanie and her husband were there and I really enjoyed hanging out with them.

I’m still processing all I learned and I can’t wait to get a chance to put it into practice. I am blessed to have worked with some of the most talented photographers out there. It’s awesome to not only learn from my friends but to be encouraged from them.

Rachel at one point told me that it’s been so awesome to see our studio and photography grow over the years.

We’ve had some meetings since I got back to talk about things. I also blessed to have some of the best photographers I know right here in Macon who work on our team.
