A Sixteen-Year Throwback in Photography

by Skip Cohen

I'm turning back the clock almost sixteen years to WPPI 2007 and a special panel program with ten of the most influential women in our industry. It was a panel discussion loaded with incredible artists who shared their insight into the business of professional photography.

This is a page from the Day In the Life of WPPI album Graphistudio put together each year, and I cherish the memories. I have three years of albums, and like an album you might create for a client, each page results in plenty of smiles and flashbacks. This is storytelling at its best. There were always four photographers involved in documenting each year's events. Victor Sizemore captured the group shot above, while Catherine Hall the image below.

With convention season starting this week at CES, remember to capture images of every conference you attend. Whether you share them on your website years from now for Throwback Thursday, or they're just archived for fun looks in your rearview mirror, if a picture is worth a thousand words, then one great memory represents volumes.

Happy Throwback Thursday!
