WPPI 2012 Meetups with Mark Wallace

Our friend Mark Wallace of Snapfactory gave us permission to repost his announcement regarding his WPPI meetups. Here it is!

Mark Wallace is partnering with PocketWizard this year at WPPI. Join Mark in this informal setting to learn about off-camera flash and remote camera triggering. This is the perfect place to ask questions about photography and meet other photographers. Mark will be giving lighting demos and has a never-seen-before demonstration that involves members of the audience. You’ll have to see it to believe it!

Mark will be hosting three meetups. Mark will be presenting his lighting demonstrations at all of them, the only thing that is different is the questions you bring with you. The meetups are informal and tend to take on a life of their own. So come to one or all of them, the choice is yours.

Price: FREE. WPPI registration is NOT required.
Location: Meet in the lobby by the lion at the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas.
Bring: Your camera, your questions and a jacket – we will be shooting outside!
Time: 7:00pm – 9:00 pm
Dates:

  • Sunday, February  19
  • Monday, February 20
  • Tuesday, February 21
