This image is only half of one of the two rooms of the Trade Show offerings at WPPI in Las Vegas, Nevada.

We have just returned from WPPI (wedding and Portrait Photographers International)....We love to attend this huge, week long learning experience and Trade Show in Vegas on a yearly basis. WE may not get out to see much of Vegas, but attending  keeps us current and fresh. We bring home amazing amounts of products and benefits, for our clients.

It is a large investment in time, money and  effort, but we feel our clients deserve an ongoing influx of ideas and up to date knowledge base. In this world of ever changing computers and digital learning, it's easy to get lost in it or to give up even trying to keep up....

Anorexia and bulimia at the onset, an provide a facade of control and desired identity.  The client may feel a sense of victory in their striving for perfection. They see their thinness as an ideal that is within reach.

Storyboarding the anorexic or bulimic internal struggle can reveal externally and pictorially to the client, their twisted internal struggles. These struggles display the irony of the comfort the client derives from their condition... at first. The insidious nature of the condition over-powers them and they end up battling for control of their own minds.
