The company will host 8 in-booth live-instruction demos featuring top industry pros such as Anya Anti, Jeff Carpenter, Johnny Edwards, Shawn Lee, Susan Stripling, and Seth Miranda [1].

A third of the speaker lineup at WPPI 2025 is new, with a stronger focus on lighting and business education [4]. Adorama's content producer, Raffetto, has praised the positive feedback received for Adorama’s educational offerings, particularly the mentorship of Seth Miranda and Ab Sesay [5].
In addition to the WPPI event, Adorama organizes a focused educational workshop for wedding photographers on Thursday, August 21, from 9:30 AM to 6 PM EDT in New York City (873 Broadway) [3]. The workshop features expert educators like Susan Stripling, a renowned Canon Explorer of Light, who will teach portrait lighting and wedding photography techniques and share business insights [4][5].
Adorama offers educational programming year-round, including Portfolio Reviews, the Adorama Learning Center Blog, AdoramaTV, Coffee with Creators, and more [6]. Attendees can sign up for available workshops and events on Adorama's events page.
WPPI 2025 offers hands-on learning, face-to-face networking, and an energy on the convention floor that sparks creativity [7]. Daily raffles are held at the end of each show floor day for attendees who have entered [8]. Adorama's booth at WPPI 2025 offers a prize wheel for attendees who make a $250 or more purchase, with potential prizes including a Wacom Tablet, Go Pro, Rosco Gel Kit, Pelican cases, and more [1].
The conference and trade show has evolved since its inception in 1981, growing in terms of attendees, vendors, speakers, photo walks, and special events [9]. New additions to WPPI 2025 include WPPI's Got Talent, an open-mic-style event where aspiring speakers pitch their class ideas in front of a live audience [10]. WPPI 2025 also introduces four two-day Summits – Wedding, Lighting, Portrait, and Boudoir – as well as a new, one-day Latin Summit [11].
Flashpoint, Adorama's private label, brings its gear and modifiers to the booth, making it a must-visit destination for attendees [1]. Printique, Adorama’s sister brand, is present with a space within the Adorama booth, offering high-quality printing services and a new embossing photo album stamp machine [1].
