Wow. I’m blown away. The first meeting attendance was double what I expected it to be. Lots of great discussion, networking, some really talented and creative professionals in attendance. We had a good mix of photographers, designers, and even a few people who regularly contract out creative services. The networking potential here is terrific.

What an awesome start. Our little meeting space at the library was bursting at the seams. It’s clear we’ll need to get the downstairs conference rooms for future meetings, which might make scheduling a little more difficult, but we’ll work it out.

Clearly there is a lot we can learn from each other, and it seems that this group is filling a very real need. The interest was very clear, and the energy and excitement at the meeting was very encouraging. I think everybody walked away with a sense of optimism. I know a few photos were shot, so please comment and post links if you upload a set. Link to any meeting reports, as well.

Pictured above (in order), Photo John (PhotographyReview.com), Spencer Henderson (Art Director for Utah Business magazine), and the bottom photo is Karen Crook, discussing the challenges of compiling 8 years of varied creative work into a cohesive portfolio.

Thanks to everybody who showed up. If you missed out, please join us at UTFreelance.com for details on the next meeting. See you all next month!
