We’ve got all the info on all the speakers, all the parties, and all the essential non-WPPI stuff that you need to see!
We’re breaking it down into what to do at the convention, who to see, where to go – and then we’ve got a whole lot of other stuff to do in Vegas while you are down there!
Aside from speakers WPPI is home to the biggest baddest photography trade show anywhere! With over 300 exhibitors you are sure you find many things that will improve your life as a photographer.
***Be sure to stop by the Finao booth (1209) Fiano is a super cool album vendor that loves Brandy’s work so much they asked her to design some sample albums for their booth, so make sure you check them out…and the BEST part?? One of those albums features me, my super big preggo belly and my family from our kick ass session with Brandy when I was only 1 week away from delivering my youngest daughter Etain.
