**THIS IS A PINNED POST AND WILL REMAIN AT THE TOP OF THE BLOG FOR TWO WEEKS. Β WE WILL STILL BE BLOGGING NEW POSTS EVERYDAY BUT YOU MUST SCROLL DOWN BELOW THIS ONE TO SEE THE MOST UP TO DATE POSTS! Β THANKS!**

I just got back from an amazing trip to La Jolla, California where we had an awesome time at The Seniorologie Tour. Β The attendees were amazing, and I was joined by four other speakers, Courtney DeLaura, Meg Borders, Michelle Moore and Sarah Lane to give these attendees all out tips and tricks to help their senior portrait businesses grow.

We had two amazing shoots and the models were beautifully styled by Courtney DeLaura with clothing from Altar’d State. Β The models, who are also models and clients of Sarah Lane’s Studio 12, did a wonderful job and all the attendees were able to capture breathtaking images in the amazing location of La Jolla!

I can’t wait to share the images, behind the scenes and more from this fabulous stop on the Tour! Β Stay tuned to the blog in the next week for all the amazing imagery!

Now, it is time to reveal the next stop on the Tour! Β We are doing a little something different to determine the next location and need YOUR help!! Β We have gotten many requests for all different parts of the country but two places came up over and over. Β So we are going to let the fans decide which location becomes our next stop!

And to make it even more interesting, we are going to give away ONE Free Seat to the next tour to one of the voters!

  41. Erin Gathright says:

  42. I would love to win a seat because it would help my business tremendously, especially since my main clients are Seniors. Fingers crossed!!! Thanks for the opportunity.

  43. Angela Powell Woulfe says:

    I would LOVE to join you, especially in Alexandria!! It is so beautiful there, and we are getting ready to move to that area. I was so bummed to miss the La Jolla tour. πŸ™ I learned so much from the Vegas shoot out and loved getting to know the Seniorologie crew! It helped my fledgling senior brand so much, I can only dream of what I could get out of this!!!! MUAH! Love you, Seniorologie!!!

  44. I can’t even imagine how much I would learn on the Seniorologie Tour! The speakers are incredible, and I would love the chance to grow my business through their teachings. My senior business has been growing steadily, but I know that the Tour would help me burst through some marketing doors!

  45. Connie Etter says:

    Indiana PLEASE!!! We have super locations for you. We are close to IL, KY, MI etc…PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!

  46. I would love to win this seat, especially if it is in Indianapolis! I am hoping to expand my senior business over the next year and it would be a dream to be a part of the tour.

  47. Where to begin… I’m in a small market outside of a major city, and I need to expand. I’m currently rebranding, getting my marketing together, and working diligently on building a base. My goal is to focus strictly on seniors within the next year! Although word-of-mouth has been great, I want to get to that next level. I have so much to learn! I want to blow away my target audience and really stand out from the crowd! Being in attendance at one of your stops would be amazing, and I believe this would help me tremendously. Instead of bits and pieces here and there, it would be a ton of information and experience to learn from at one stop. I can’t imagine how much this would impact my 2015 senior season!! I’m ready to travel and soak up a wealth of information!!! I can pack today! INDIANA is my vote!

  48. Amanda says:

    I am so excited for this tour and I wish the best of luck to all of the participants in this voting contest! P.S. May 20 is my birthday……… ;D

  52. Carolyn Ryan says:

    East Coast!!! If it can’t be in the NY/NJ area, I’m excited that you have picked a place within driving distance! Myself and other photographers are trying to grow the senior market in this area, and this tour would be so helpful and I’ve heard such great things and I loved the Vegas Shootout! I would love to join you in Alexandria, VA! Please, please, please pick VA!

  53. Mickey says:

  56. Amanda says:

    This has been the craziest year! In addition tending to my photography business, I returned to full-time teaching after being part-time for 3 years to be more available to my family. The ups, downs, ins, and outs were more than enough and I’m taking a complete step of faith this coming year when I’ll be on a leave of absence from the classroom. As I read, write, learn, love and grow healthier for my family and myself, I also hope to once again find that spark that drew me into photography in the first place. I would be thrilled to participate in this tour and really hope to make a road trip to Indy this fall! πŸ™‚

  57. Ashley says:

    I’d love to join you to have the opportunity to meet and network with other senior photographers πŸ™‚

LOVE LOVE LOVE seniors & I would be so honored to attend part of the tour!
