le announcement!

I'm working on putting together a workshop for local photographers, and I'm going to need a couple to model for me. So if you want in, shoot me an email with a picture of the two of you. It should be a brilliant time! laura at lauradye dot com. You don't necessarily have to be married or engaged, but if you have access to a wedding dress, let me know. Can't wait to hear from you! Also: to stay updated on workshop news and such, hit up my facebook page. I try to avoid spamisheness.

a little bragging, but mostly embarassing

There's a reason I stay behind the camera: I'm not photogenic. At all. Seriously. But I had to share the following clipping, because I'm so happy about it.
Yesterday the Salisbury Young Professionals hosted a career day, and I was able to talk to around 200 students about being and becoming a photographer. I encouraged them all to take lots of business classes! But anyway, the staff photog from the local paper (who carried a Nikon d300) was quite lovely, although his picture makes me look like a dying pig.
