Cool. The tradeshow is great for photographers, especially if you've never been before. It's like visiting Santa at the North Pole right before Christmas. d;-)

We've been attending WPPI for years and I'll say it's almost entirely geared towards photography. One year they did have a 'video class' but it wasn't worth it in my opinion. Our studio provides...

Not speaking from experience since we've always shot with at least 3 cameras and at least 2 operators, but I'm guessing it's a hard sell to get a bride to 'upgrade' to a 2nd shooter. It's just not...

Honestly, this is one reason we farm out our disc production. Once you know the master disc works, it's a major time-saver to hand it off to another company for duplication, but we don't have to...
