Does anyone have experience with this school? I was thinking about doing this in May. I am going to Nikon workshop next Sunday in Houston. Any other good workshops in Houston?
Thanks,
David

Worth every penny.. not just the class, but the networking with other like minded photographers.... not to mention the trade show deals.... oh, and the parties. LOL

Seriously. It is probably the best use of education dollars you could have.

No, only certain instructors sell out in minutes... there are plenty of classes available still.

I have been to this school over twenty times and would not miss it. As Brad said, this is the best bang for your educational dollar, if you are really serious about taking your photography business to the next level. While it is true that over 500 signed up in the first few hours and several classes filled quickly, there are many classes that still have several openings.

Thanks all. Now to decide on the class, see how much the hotel will be, and if I can get off from work. Looking forward to this and the Houston Pin-Up shoot I signed up for today. Woo Hoo!

Last year there were over 1000 attendees!
I am still undecided about this year b/c I will have to spend more on hotel. Last year I was close enough to drive!
