Directions

All attendees can have their headshot taken by a professional photographer at a special group discount. The photographer will be setting up a mobile studio at the event. He will take several photos of each participant and you will be able to immediately see them on a computer monitor. After selecting your favorite, the image will be professionally retouched to make you look your best, then emailed directly to you. All for only $50 - less than half the regular price. All work is guaranteed. If you don't love your images, the photographer will retake them or refund your money. Here is a great opportunity to update your website, LinkedIn, or social media profile.
