e are so excited about Summerfest 2016! Last year was our first Summerfest and we knew from hearing all of the buzz that Summerfest was a hit.
That is why we have put together an even bigger event that is sure to inspire your photography - and put a smile on your family’s face.
N
ewborn photography is the hot niche but how do you connect with expecting moms before their
newborn session? Bree Adams has grown from an $85 a disk weekend warrior to an Award Winning
full-time profiting photographer in a short amount of time. Her marketing strategies, skill set and vision has
her studio growing rapidly. Bree will share her journey, marketing strategy and the reasons clients are willing
to pay the price. Even if you’re not specializing in newborns or maternity, Bree’s marketing strategy can still
apply to you!
The fun begins when you pull into the La Torretta Resort. This world class resort features an 18-hole championship golf course, a luxurious spa, organized
activities for the kids, mini-golf, a teen “hangout” and more. But the big attraction is that awesome water park right there at the resort! Water slides, a
“lazy river” and a very wet playground are just few of the ways to cool down. The resort sits among the piney woods on the shores of Lake Conroe, so
bring your boat or your jet skis and dock them right there at the hotel. You can read more about La Torretta at www.tppa.org/summerfest.
Bree started her niche in 2012 and opened a full studio in 2013 specializing in newborns. She added high
fashion maternity in 2014 to take her studio to the next level. She was the first CPP to submit images and
pass with all newborns. Her first year in print competition was 2014 at SWPPA. -PPA Magazine cover April

Of course, Summerfest is loaded with photographic education with programs and hands-on workshops by some of the industry’s top image makers. Our
speakers are committed to your success! We have formatted the programming so that there is less sitting and more doing.
Summerfest also features the TPPA Annual Image Competition. The competition is live so you can watch as our panel of PPA judges review and score
both digital images and prints. Enjoy seeing the top images on display and join in the fun Tuesday evening as the awards are announced.
After a full day of learning, enjoy evenings with friends sitting by the pool or on the banks of Lake Conroe with a fishing pole in hand. There is a coffee
shop, food grill, sushi bar and piano bar just a few steps from the pool. At the end of the day, your family will enjoy plenty of room in your beautifully
decorated suite! That’s right – every guest room at La Torretta is a suite! Just staying in the room is a vacation in itself. So, if you think all of this is
impressive, just take a look at the program lineup....

o be successful, Boudoir cannot be treated as a more sensual version of standard studio portraits. Your
client experience from beginning to end must be tailored specifically to achieve the end result you’re
looking for, and that’s where this class will help you. We’ll cover how to use dramatic light to tell a sensual
story, and how to interact with clients in a way that helps them feel safe and results in emotive and vulnerable
imagery. Instruction will be done with a live model to demonstrate technique, and hands-on shooting time
will be incorporated.
I live in a world of fabulous fine art boudoir imagery where champagne flows freely and anything is possible,
so I often find myself saying utterly inappropriate things in public because I’ve forgotten how real people
behave. My go-to drink is a Hendricks martini with a twist. And I’m an unapologetic workaholic - helping
clients tell their story, whether by photographing them, educating them, or mentoring them - is what gets me
up in the morning and keeps me going all day. I love my life!

oin one of the foremost headshot photographers in the industry as he shares the secrets of how he and
his wife and partner, Julie, have created a thriving photography business by standing in the shallow end
of the pool and working an under served market. Learn marketing and pricing strategies as well as some of
the techniques Gary uses to create his signature images. From beginner to expert, this program will educate,
entertain and equip every attendee to take advantage of this exploding market in professional photography.
As the child of photographer parents, it is ironic that Gary’s professional life included everything but
photographer until life led him back to the path he was ultimately destined, photographer. In 2008 he and
his wife founded Hughes Fioretti Photography and, in the years since, have grown their business by making
a name for themselves as THE place to get headshots in Central Florida. Aside from running a studio in
Orlando, FL, Gary is also in demand as a photography educator and travels often, teaching his methods to
photographers all over the world. His main focus as an instructor is to empower photographers to create
the type of business that sets them free to live the kind of life they want. Gary’s work has been featured in
Professional Photographer Magazine and he has been a speaker for Imaging USA and Creative Live.

exas PPA supports the value and benefits of the PPA Certified Professional Photographer program. Professional
credentials are not just handed out. They are EARNED. Photography credentials are no different, and any Certified
Professional Photographer (CPP) can tell you that… “There’s a lot of effort that goes into preparing for the CPP exam alone (let alone the image submission
review), and that’s why the Certification Preparation Class is so important.”
Join Gary and Kathy Meek as they spend the day reviewing and going over some of the highlights of the PPA Certification test specifications. Math formulas
and color theory are often some of the harder things for some to grasp but they will explain it in a way anyone can understand.
No one day program can adequately prepare you to take the exam. However,
if you have been working on the material and need to brush up on some key
elements, this class is for you. If you have never considered taking the CPP
test, this class will give you some insight and some understanding of what it
takes to prepare for PPA Certification.
T
he more emotional a portrait is the more it stirs our senses. When an image evokes an emotion it captures
us and creates a feeling within in us. Images which evoke emotion and tell stories will sell themselves.
In today’s digital age many can take a pretty picture, but it takes skill and experience to create an image
with emotional impact. Francie loves photography and loves teaching it as well. She is quite passionate
about her craft and is anxious to share what she knows with others. Her philosophy about the profession of
photography is that, if we lift up one person, we are all lifted up. In today’s rapidly changing world where
new photographers are coming in every day, Francie truly believe there is room for everyone who is serious
about their work and strives to become better through learning. To her, being a part of that process of helping
others while doing what she loves is bliss.
Gary and Kathy Meek have the ability to explain these technical concepts
from their extensive experience. They’ve taught preparation classes like this
(the CPP exam) since about 1991. They know their stuff. Sure, Gary would
be the first to tell you when he doesn’t know something…but he’ll follow
that statement up with, “But we’ll find out.” And you will, too.

s photographers, we create art that is meaningful and touches the lives and hearts for generations to
come. But sometimes we are so focused on the technical aspect, that we forget to add in the artistic,
the personal, the emotion. In this class, Kimberly will discuss how to become more artistic and to see things
from a different view. You will learn different ways to jump-start your creativity and where to look for
inspiration beyond photography. Successful photographers must be technically proficient in photography and
be confident in what they do so they can be free to add the rest. While some photographers are left-brained
and others are right-brained, those who are a little of both will stand out among the rest. Join Kimberly and
learn how to bring to light your artist within.

Kimberly J. Smith began her photography career in 2001 in Muskogee, Oklahoma. With no formal training,
she stepped out on faith, purchased her professional equipment, and began taking classes. Photography soon
became a passion and she quickly learned that creating beautiful portraits and art was what she was meant to
do. She is a Master of Photography, Photographic Craftsman, and a PPA Affiliated Juror. In 2014, she became
a Certified Professional Photographer and recently received her Master Artist degree and Imaging Excellence
at Imaging USA. Kimberly truly believes in life-long learning and that every competition and every journey
has pushed her to become a better, more creative photographer. Judging, competition and photography is her
passion, and her family is her love.
Part 2 of the program will be a “hands-on” demonstration of how to process HDR images, stitch multiple
images together into panoramas and drop in needed elements to produce the look that your clients want.
Using raw images that Stephen will provide, he will show you how to do it yourself on your own computer.
Stephen has been photographing professionally for almost 15 years. During that time he has earned
Certification from Professional Photographer of America, (1995), PPA Master of Photography Degree (1996)
and PPA Photographic Craftsman Degree (1998). He has received numerous awards for print competition
including the coveted “Kodak Gallery Award” and the “Fuji Masterpiece Award.”
ring your computer for this hands-on program which will inspire landscape and scenic photographers as
well as those who wish to increase their revenue stream through commercial imaging. Using equipment
and skills you already possess, Stephen will show you how to create images with impact! This program will
provide you with ideas, technical understanding and practical applications that will give you the confidence
to open up a new product line in commercial images for your portrait clients, or take your landscape and
scenic images to a whole new level.
