Throughout the course of this year's expo, photographers of all skill levels will have the opportunity to put their shooting and lighting skills to the test at a special interactive booth located right on the show floor. Sponsored by F.J. Westcott, a world leader in professional photography and video lighting equipment, the booth will feature several live model and product shoot scenarios. Along with taking photos during the ongoing simultaneous shoots, attendees will have a chance to submit their images in a special Shoot-Out Contest and compete for several prizes and the opportunity to be featured in an upcoming F.J. Westcott catalog. Additionally, attendees can get onsite advice and feedback, as well as product recommendations, from F.J. Westcott representatives.

In celebration of this year's fashion-related theme, fashion design students from the International Academy of Design & Technology in Orlando have created several runway outfits and visual fashion displays inspired by Photoshop and Lightroom icons and graphics. Expo attendees will have the opportunity to vote for their favorite looks, which will be displayed on the show floor. The two winning designers will each receive an Apple iPad.
