Hi all! I'm back from a great Pictage conference in LA and am already excited for the next speaking engagement. Coming up in a few weeks, I'll be the featured speaker for 4 education-packed days at the Keep N it Fresh (http://keepnitfresh.com/) workshop! We'd love to see all of you photographers out in Kansas October 20-23, 2008. Mike Colon (http://www.mikecolon.net) was the first featured speaker, and I hear that one went very well! Here's some verbiage from their site...

Hope to see you there!

Hey Corey,
I thought your program at Partnercon was strong. Sitting two people down and doing a "live" meeting seems so simple an idea -yet was so powerful. We can hear from a lot of speakers who talk of meeting the client, but watching it in action was great.

I know you are going to be in Wichita in October for a 4 day conference at Keepnitfresh. You'll love it. For many years I traveled from Texas to KCMO never doing anything in Wichita but get gas or hit a motel. When I went to the Keepnitfresh last spring, I finally got to go old town. Wow, I was blown away. I kept seeing all the cool and colorful places I'd choose for photo-sessions. You'll like the place. I had no idea! Very rich source and environment for photographers. (-and the food's good too!)
