Finland-green-1

A huge thanks to Philippa P.B. Hughes with the Pink Line Project for inviting me to shoot at last night's green celebration at the Finnish Embassy. The embassy celebrates its LEED certification, becoming the first and only green embassy in the U.S. (see their story here). What an amazing building! Pink Line brought art, music & performing arts together for the occasion, featuring some of our best local talent.


Media gals Emily and Maura Judkis (those drinks look pretty swanky!).

Photos: DC PR Flacks November Meetup (thanks @joeflood and @margienewman!)

Last night, I met a stellar group of talented PR professionals -- DC PR Flacks on Meetup (#DCFlacks on Twitter) -- thanks to my good friend Joe Flood. Joe re-introduced me to Margie Newman, founder of the monthly meetup, and Dave Newman, a talented web guy (and Wordpress expert).

I enjoyed chatting with Lauren Woeber. Like me, she finds the group welcoming. Member Jon Riethmaier says: "I came for the $2.50 beers and stayed for the conversation. This is great group with quality practitioners in a very relaxed environment." So come on out next month!
