| TOP STORY Tampa Here We Come! DWF Convention 2008 is less than 150 days away, and we're getting ready for a homegrown event featuring seminars by many of the stellar photographers who post on the DWF, and some of the best-known wedding photographers in the business. Get ready for some surprises! The full schedule will be released, and we'll begin registration on Tuesday, August 21st! THE STARTING LINE DWF Start Feedback Three weeks after the launch of DWF Start, we have 850 members, the quality of the content is staggering, and we can safely say there's nothing like DWF Start, anywhere. Thanks to the many DWF Pro members who are giving back so selflessly! DWF Start is specifically for aspiring wedding photographers who have yet to open their businesses. DWF PRO - WHAT IS IT? Visitor's Pass Those who qualify for DWF Pro and have photography businesses are offered a 7-day visitor's pass to look and see why the DWF is such an important resource to more than 4,000 pro photographers. Because of the confusion when our forum "split in two" we've contacted photographers who had 7-day visitor's passes in July, offering them an extra 7 days. We hope you'll take advantage! SOAKING THE CLIENT A "Wet" The Dress Session For those who think "Trash the Dress" is ridiculous, take a look at the "WET the dress" shoot posted by DWF Member Silvana from Impulse Photography.  Some brides would gladly sacrifice their dresses for pictures like these! Dirty little secret: The dry cleaner often rescues the dress after a TTD session. FINALLY! Tina Wilson Seminar For years she's offered helpful advice on the DWF, and has freely shown the kind of work that's made her such a portrait photography success story. DWFU instructor Tina Wilson is now planning a west coast workshop, and we hope you'll check out the details!
