There and Back again, A BlogHer Tale.

posted by ali Jul 29th, 2009

Sound the trumpets! We, the official Picnik BlogHer team, have triumphantly returned to Picnik World Headquarters in Seattle.

Lisa, Sarah, Bridget, and I are weary boned, hoarse throated, and sleep deprived, yet ecstatic to share our story. After our first few days of taking in the eclectic skyline and cruising down the Chicago river, we made our way over to the Sheraton to set up our booth for BlogHer ’09.

Friday morning to Saturday evening, we showed hundreds of bloggers how to rock their images with Picnik. We uploaded, corrected, spruced up, and saved photos in a matter of minutes to prove just how easy Picnik really is. We showed off our brand new Touch Up Suite to oohs and ahhs and revealed our BlogHer logo Stickers to a standing ovation.

But you don’t have to take our word for it @TheAppleOfMyEye tweeted, “Found out some cool new things that @Picnik has to offer from a demo @BlogHer.  Companies NEED to be at these conferences The smart 1’s are.”  @MommyTechCES agreed, “SO impressed by Picnik at #BlogHer!” And, of course, our dear @AngryJulie, who lamented, “I miss my #Picnik girls already from #BlogHer.” We miss you, too, AngryJulie. We miss you, too.

Throughout our expo hall travels and booth stationed conversations, we met mommy bloggers, travel bloggers, fashion bloggers, scrappers, photographers, foodies, cowgirls, and cutie booty shakers.

Be prepared for a heartwarming, silly, and sometimes scandalous journey through our trip to BlogHer.

    I had to go back to reality on Monday night. It was way too early….the only photos I took where ones at crime scenes…and not drunk people, unicorns, or cheeseburgers. I sooo could not Picnik those!

    Now I have another reason I wish I would have gone to BlogHer! Not only did I miss hanging out with my friend Angry Julie, but I missed meeting you guys!
    As Julie will tell you, I am like Picnik’s biggest fan and advocate and would have loved to have given each and every one of you a big hug and “thanks” for making my photography presentable.
    Maybe next year I can go with Angry Julie and we can all meet.

    I had a blast meeting you all at BlogHer. Thank you so much for my 3 month Premium coupon. I promptly redeemed it and have been enjoying my new found premium Picnik benefits.

    If you ever have anything to give away, I would love to do a review and give away on my blog.

    Thanks again.

    Awesome. I didn’t realize you had gone. Although I’ve read mixed reviews about the conference this year, I do still think it would have been great to have met so many of the people there. Including your team!

    Wow, I’m still settling in from the BlogHer/Chicago extravaganza. Okay, about the amazing shirts (FunkyMagicUK and Suz) they are a limited edition, made special for our BlogHer team. We’ll pass on the request for more to the design team. Julie, Leslie and AmazingGreis, it was awesome to be there with you too! Suz and Casual Friday Every Day, sorry we missed you ladies at BlogHer, maybe we’ll see ya next year!
