SSG Regions Event...Michelle Cuppy Studio Posing
In January 2019, we launched SSG Regions. My vision for this would be an opportunity for photographers from the same region to get together. A place where people can get to know photographers who are geographically close to them. Somewhere they could talk about the trends and intricacies of their business with people who are right next door.
Our first region was the Midwest and we hosted 2 events there in 2019. Seems simple enough since this is where I am based. This was our beta tester group. Like other regions that we will be rolling out, the Midwest has a different session season than say our west coast friends. That is just one difference, but I wanted people in the group who could commiserate and identify with what specific shifts and obstacles they face together. I love how this group is coming together and helping each other out!
My first goal was to bring everyone together for a meet and greet. Then the conversation shifted and it grew to how about we bring in a speaker and make it educational. And well, you guessed it...how about we bring in some models and do a shootout at the end? When you bring people together, the ideas escalate! So I found the perfect hotel that is easily accessible from neighboring states. Then it was time to find out who would do an educational lecture. The shootout component and models followed along with sponsors. Our meet and greet grew to a extended continuing education class with lots of opportunities to get to know one another.
Here we are wrapping up 2021 and I am packing up and taking our Regions events on the road with our first stop in Grand Rapids, Michigan! I am going to hopefully show up in your neighborhood this year! I am super excited to be heading to Michigan for our 4th. event!
