Photo Friday with Sean Astin

By |2014-06-18T18:12:58-04:00February 28, 2014|Entertainment|Comments Off on Photo Friday with Sean Astin

I morphed into the "unofficial" camera girl at the #ENMNetwork conference in Anaheim. As the photographer for the #ENMNCon14 I took photos of everyone with the celebrities in attendance. It was fun, and when everyone was done, I got to have someone take my pix. #SeanAstin - well he loves to be a goofball, and imitated my camera holding techniques.....but he totally added the tongue thing. I wasn't biting my tongue when taking photos, I swear!
