The Today Show and class dates for 2010

09.15.09

Just got back from a 20,000 mile round trip to Melbourne Australia.  Boy am I racking up some frequent flyer miles these days!!  I had the pleasure of meeting and teaching to 51 wonderful ladies and our first gentleman to take the class!  What a memorable trip with so many great experiences and 14 awesome days in the land of Oz.  And if that wasn’t enough excitement, Tracy recently appeared on The Today Show to talk about our little studio in Blair Nebraska and photographing sleeping beauties.  What an honor and one we couldn’t turn down.  Unfortunately I was in Melbourne at the time of the interview, but Tracy pulled it all together without a hitch… so proud of her!  Please click play below to watch the segment that aired on The Today Show!!

 

For those that have emailed to asked about our 2010 baby posing schedule, please read below!
