Every year thousands of photogs flock to the renowned Vegas event, WPPI, otherwise known as the “Photographers' Spring Break.” If you’re going to be making that trip this year, it’s best going with a little insider info under your belt. We’ve compiled some of the best booths, giveaways, events, discounts and product releases you’re not going to want to miss. If this is your first year, you’ll look like a pro walking those tradeshow aisles. If you’re a veteran WPPI attendee, you’ll likely be reunited with friends and colleagues who will appreciate being in the know with you.

No human being is created perfect, and photographers probably know that firsthand. Still, everyone wants to look best in their portraits. That desire usually translates into hours of tedious retouching with Photoshop or the likes of it. Whether you are a fashion, an event, or a wedding photographer, you probably wish to make portrait enhancing a breeze. Well, there is software that can grant you that wish.

For over a decade, PortraitPro (formerly Portrait Professional) has been popular with photographers looking to retouch their own images in-house. The easy to use interface makes it easy to customize nearly every part of your edit, making it ideal for everything from high-fashion to family portraits. PortraitPro 18 brought AI to the table, making for a significantly faster and more accurate editing experience. The latest offering, PortraitPro 19, was released in mid-October. So what can users expect from this new version?

Streamlining the photographic workflow tops the list for most digital photographers, whether professional or hobbyist. After all, you put a great deal of time and effort into capturing that perfect shot - the concept, the subject, the location, the lighting –  so the last thing you want to do is spend tons of time having to recreate that perfect image just because you used different lenses when shooting, or you needed to make significant color adjustments to suit your monitor (or several monitors!) not to mention more tweaking when it comes to your printer and other output devices.

The Sedona Photography Symposium has recently added five renowned photographers to its already impressive lineup of presenters. The inaugural event on August 22 - 25, 2019 in Sedona, Arizona. Participants will not be disappointed!

One of the most appealing aspects of macro photography is that you can find subjects virtually anywhere: local parks, in your yard, even inside your garage or home.
