I apologize for yet another 'Blade Show' specific thread, but I have learned from experience that our services are never known by all. 
Here is a poster I just created to set the tone:
SharpByCoop Photography will be available at the Show to photograph all work by makers and collectors.
I will be assisted by my wife Susan, and my adept and talented friend and professional photographer Buddy Thomason.
We have always been located outside of the Show Hall at the far end of the Atrium (next to the seminar rooms) at Boardroom #1 (BR1).
It's a REALLY exciting four days. We will arrive on thursday midday to set up and will start later in the day.
Unlike makers who's work is finished at Blade, mine begins there. I will work non-stop for the four days until Sunday afternoon, shooting and capturing the images on my hard drive. I spend a LOT of time on individual lighting for each piece and will not have the time to process prints at the show. Never have.
Proofs and prints are emailed and mailed out within a week.
I would love to offer a welcome for a brief handshake, at the very least. My wife will then shoo you away and you may talk to Buddy all you'd like.
He he he!
Here is a shot of our thorough submission sheet:

Thanks to collector Rob Connally for this candid from last year:
The Show resumes about a week and a half after we return. Right here. :thumbup:
Thanks for viewing!
