With WPPI right around the corner I thought I’d do a little blog on it… For the non photogs WPPI is the big convention / trade show we talk about every year. It’s a wonderful time to meet other photographers, become inspired, see new products, industry trends, gamble, eat, party, eat, gamble, party and eat! WPPI (wedding portrait photographers international) draws in near 15,000 attendees and grows more and more every year. Thats a whole lot of shutterbugs in one city huh? Anyway we’ll be there. I hope to meet all of you photographers who follow my blog and are attending.
“Beyond the blog” I have a platform class from 6:00pm-8:00pm on Tuesday February 22nd. I’ll be speaking about marketing and my Elario Photo Booth you can find out more here. I’d be totally honored if you photogs attending WPPI would come see me. This year WPPI has a Pre-board System. It was designed to guarantee you a seat for a platform class. Currently I have around 90 pre-board spots open. I believe my room seats 300. If you’re interested in pre-boarding for my class click here for more information. My platform talk is sponsored by Millers Lab and drop it MODERN with giveaways from them as well. The catch is you gotta stay and listen to me 😉

Again, it would really be great to meet some of you. This is when twitter can really be fun by using the #wppi hash tag and letting everyone know where the hot craps tables are or when you’re anywhere hanging. Check my twitter @jpelario I’ll be a tweetin’ machine! Viva Las Vegas!
Peace,
