WPPI 2013


Last week I spoke at WPPI -- Wedding and Portrait Photographers International -- an annual convention in Las Vegas that draws 15,000 photographers from around the globe. My topic was Efficient & Profitable Album Design & Sales. It wasn't the most glamorous or feel-good topic at the convention by any means, but my hope was that it would help photographers maximize their business's profit and efficiency in one of the trickiest parts of our workflow -- album sales.


I'm SO thankful to the photographers who came out to learn, who live tweeted, and who stayed afterwards to say hi. Thank you all for your support and kind words! And a huge thank you goes to my sponsors -- Queensberry and Align Album Design -- who are great partners if you're looking to maximize album profit!

If you missed my talk and are interested in the content, you can click here to read the live twitter feed and click here to view the presentation slide content.

I had such an amazing time at WPPI this year! It's always a whirlwind few days, and I packed mine full of meet-ups with other photographers & industry leaders who I care about and also want to get to know better. I was so busy, that I didn't take many photos unfortunately. But Sara did grab this one of the crew who showed up for our MJ2Day alumni dinner (from L to R: Jessica Ulrich, Kate Giovinco, Tracy Woodger-Broz, me and Jeremy Chou):


It was so fun to catch up with these photographers who have attended past workshops and see what they are up to now! They are all doing great things!

What an amazing experience! Thank you to WPPI for having me speak! Can't wait for next year!
