The Cotton Mill Studio Open House was a success! We had 30 people come by to check out the awesome tower and studio space throughout the evening. It was a great mix of clients and friends. There was delicious food, white wine and craft beer from Denver Beer Company. There was a slideshow of my work projected on to the wall above us. There were tours of the tower built in 1890 – part of the Overland Cotton Mill. There were stories, good conversations and a drawing for special priced photo sessions. A big thanks to all those who helped me with the big event:  Mike Moore, Jim Baldwin, Kate Pfeiffer, Neil Corman, Michael Cleveland, Risa Hayes, Misty Mayhall and Rob Madison. I couldn’t have done it without you. And thank you to everyone who attended. For those who were unable to make it, we’ll do it again. Perhaps next Earth Day, maybe even before. Stay tuned.
