Most of you may not yet know, but I had been chosen to be the PUG leader for Claremont a couple of months ago! It's such an honor to have this title and responsibilty and I hope that it can grow into a great group of photographers who are eager to learn, network and share ideas about the world of photography! We meet once a month at my home in Claremont, and it (so far) has been invaluable! This month, instead of having a typical meeting, Pictage decided to get together for a holiday party! Last night I headed out to LA to join the OC and LA PUGS for some holiday fun! It turned out be a great night! It's always fun to socialize with other photographers...our lives are all a little crazy! Our Claremont PUG party will be next Tuesday, December 18th at The Yardhouse in Rancho Cucamonga! Don't miss out on the fun...you even get to invite a guest! I stole this image (with permission!!!) from Jules Biachi's blog because I was a dork and forgot mine!!! Thanks, Jules for taking so many fun pictures! Lauren Hillary, me, and Jules Bianchi
