VIVA LAS VEGAS! On Sunday March 25th I’ll be heading to America’s Playground for 5 days, for the annual WPPI convention and trade show! Monte was scheduled to give a presentation on Monday March 26th. I don’t know how many WPPI conventions there have been in the past, but I’m certain this will be the first in at least a decade that won’t feature Monte Zucker in some way. So it’s a bittersweet trip – Monte’s absence will be felt through the week.
But the good news is, photographers from around the world will descend upon Vegas to learn, grow, and network (and eat and drink and laugh and party). The trade show is a huge attraction, 250+ vendors will be exhibiting with new albums, new gear, software, and other things we probably can’t live without. I will be seeing some of my closest friends, sharing a beer or three, and looking at new album options I’m so excited!
I think my hotel has wireless access, so I’m hoping I’ll have email access while I’m there – but I think cell service is pretty spotty, so if you need me drop me an email! I’ll be back in town and on the job on Friday the 30th.

Just got back from a big show myself. I’d be interested to know how you were treated at each booth you visited – I was surprised at how interested the displayers weren’t interested in getting mine.

Have a great time in Vegas. I wish I could be there , but alas, I must stay here and work. But, I know you’ll be out there hunting for the perfect album for me. And please do it while sober.
Hope to (I mean WILL) see you there! Can’t wait!

Can’t wait to finally meet you after all these years! Only 5 more sleeps!!!
