Pre Convention Class "Boosting Your Bottom Line with Album Sales"

In a highly competitive portrait and wedding industry, photographers not only struggle to create and identity, but also struggle to set themselves apart from their competition. In Pete and Liliana Wright's program, "Boost Your Bottom Line with Album Sales", they will discuss how they incorporate various types of album programs in their business to boost their wedding and portrait sales. During this program, they will also show you step by step what goes into their album design process from choosing the images to finding creative inspiration, the work flow and presentation of the finished product.

2008 Convention Title

I would like to give you a little insight to the theme
"From Darkness into Light". It has a surface meaning which is that as photographers we paint with light. We use the light out of the darkness to expose the perfect image. But on a deeper level "From Darkness into Light" is about self renewal and growth. Most of us fear not that we are inadequate but that we are powerful beyond any measure. It is our light, not our darkness that frightens us. We are all meant to shine. It is not just in some of us, it is in all of us. As we let our own light shine we inspire others around us to shine. Then, as we are released from our own fears, our presence releases others of their fears. We are only a reflection of a greater light and in sharing our knowledge, we can vanquish fears together as an association. Enabling us the means to achieve our individual and collective goals. Together our inner lights shine brightly as one.
