Shutterfest! | Kathy Weigman Photography - Appleton Portrait and Sports PhotographerWow! My head is spinning from all the learning and information from Shutterfest last week in St. Louis. First of all, let me try to explain Shutterfest is. Bring together 2000 photographers, 200 models, some of the best instructors in the country, an amazing setting, lots of vendors with awesome products and that's Shutterfest! The photography conference was held at Union Station Hotel which is an amazing venue. I went to the event with 3 other photographers from the Fox Valley. We left early Monday morning and arrived in St. Louis at 3:00. We checked into our room, got registered for Shutterfest and then headed out to explore the city.
We ventured downtown toward the arch but decided to head back for dinner and to meet up with other photographers for a nighttime arch shoot. We shot the Arch from across the river on the IL side. The sunset was marred by too many clouds, but the night skyline was beautiful!
We had to find a place to watch the Wisconsin - Duke game. We had hoped for a better outcome. Oh well......... we all headed back to the hotel to go to sleep, only I couldn't sleep. After watching tv, laying in the dark, checking facebook, and watching Netflix I got up at 6:00 to start my day! A Diet Coke and I was good to go! The days were filled with different classes about marketing, mastering your online brand, and building referrals. My hands on classes were Extreme Sports Photography with Melanie Anderson and Pricing and Packaging with Sal Cincotta. I'm SO excited to offer more unique sports photography to my seniors and I'll be offering collections this year instead of just a la carte products! The models we had for our class were great!
