The highlight for me was meeting a number of folks who I regularly follow and communicate with in the facebook group. Everyone was happy to share information and technique ideas. I got reinvigorated for my upcoming dance studio season. [...] I got a few key tips on how I can improve marketability and profitability.
"I think I really took away more of a learning aspect and I myself was so amazed with how much I took in this time rather than the last. I was open to trying new things. The highlight overall would be I learned studio and how to really control my lighting."
The amazing photographers and dancers I had the chance to meet. The organizing team did a stellar job setting it all up and was very prompt to react to all the unpredictable things that could happen. Thank you for all the hard work! I really appreciate it.
