Charleston Strobist Gathering on Folly Beach

A few other local photographers put together a "Strobist Gathering" at Folly Beach. A strobist gathering is where photographers trade tips and techniques about off camera flash and it's just a good time to hang out and talk shop. One other purposes of the meet-up was to bring awareness to the local photographer community of a great mentoring program, Charleston Kids With Cameras. www.charlestonkidswithcameras.org. Okay I know there is a potential that I may leave someone out and I shouldn't list names but I'm going to anyway just to say thanks to all the presenters who weren't afraid to share with us some of their trade secrets: Charlie Thiel, thanks for putting this together; Chris Smiths, I'm heading to the hardware store tomorrow to find those bungee cords; and thanks to Robbin Knight who cleaned my camera sensor for free.
