Sold out…

Every once in a while, my mom gets onto me about being proud of my achievements. She says, “Why not toot your own horn?”. At least with moderation, right? Anyway, Back in April, I was asked to teach a Master Class at a national professional photographer’s convention known as WPPI (Wedding and Portrait Photographers Intl.)

This is definitely an honor for me because they only pick about 40-50 photographers to speak/teach at this national convention. Also, it was my first time to ever be asked to speak professionally in front of professional photogs. Wow, lucky bid, right?

My Master Class is called “Go Where Your Clients Are”, which is geared towards helping studios navigate social media and using it to market their studios. This includes blogging, Facebook, Twitter, Google Buzz, etc. Plus, I also found out that not only is my class SOLD OUT, but I have attendees in my class all the way from Ontario, British Columbia, Quebec, Australia, Guatemala, Oxford, and Cabo!

Needless to say, I’m extremely humbled and extremely excited. I’ve made a lot of great friends over the years attending WPPI, and I can’t wait to make more friends from all over the world. I’m very grateful for everyone’s support, especially my vendors Canvas Press, MpactPhoto, and Collages.net. I’ll be posting updates on here, as well as on Facebook and Twitter, so enjoy the ride  :)

Thanks to everyone,

Dustin

Liz’s Senior Portraits pt 2 | Austin Senior Portraits by Dustin Meyer

Liz has been my senior portrait rep for a nearby Austin high school since last April. She’s outgoing, eager, and a total nut for photos! Yesterday, we had a fun photoshoot for a project I’m working on with Canvas Press. And of course, my favorite makeup artist Maris Malone Calderon did usual fabulous work. Thank you to everyone that helped make this happen, and I can’t wait to show you what’s coming up!

Taylor and Adrienne | Austin Portrait Photographer

Taylor is an old friend of mine. I actually did his senior portraits back when he was in high school. Nowadays, Taylor attends Texas A&M University while his sweetheart Adrienne goes to University of Texas in Austin. Shhh, don’t tell! Anyways, when Taylor called me up for our Valentine’s Sweetheart Portraits, I knew we’d be in for a treat. Here’s to Taylor and Adrienne, you guys make a perfect couple!

One classy bride…

When it was time to do Erin’s bridal portraits, I knew we were in for a beautiful session. I had yet to see her dress, so when I saw her in it I was totally amazed. And even more amazing was how gorgeous the images turned out. Thanks Erin for a fantastic bridal session, you are absolutely stunning! Makeup by Rae Cosmetics. Photos on location at Mansion at Judges Hill.

Austin Wedding Photography | Dustin Meyer presents Erin + Craig

I had the extreme pleasure of capturing the wedding of Erin and Craig Gleaton this past weekend. Erin is a bride from a long line of brides who are all friends of one another who decided continue the tradition of having me shoot her wedding. With her stunning dress and Kate Spade shoes, Erin was a gorgeous bride. Their wedding ceremony was held at the beautiful Tarrytown United Methodist Church with their reception at the world famous Barton Creek Resort and Spa. The bridal bouquets and floral arrangements were elegantly created by Verbena Floral Design. Bridal party hair and makeup provided by Rae Cosmetics, with the wedding cake, food, and catering provided by Barton Creek Resort and Spa. The amazing band Blind Date kept the party going all night, as well as keeping everyone on the dance floor! Crazy amazing reception lighting courtesy of Ilios Lighting. And of course, everything went as smoothly as possible, thanks to Beth Walker with 36th Street Events. Throughout the night, glow sticks, flip flops, and glowing eye glasses were passed around to light up the party. And finally, Erin and Craig treated all their guests to tacos with orange shooters from Taco Xpress! Definitely a night for the history books.

Congratulations to Erin and Craig, I love you both and wish you the best in life!! You can sign up to see all of their wedding photos here…
