FAQs

How do I choose which workshops I will attend?
There is no pre-registration for specific classes. Classes will be filled on a first-come, first-serve basis. Some classes are in bigger rooms than others, and though we try to predict which class topics may be more popular, obviously some classes will fill up. If you encounter a class that is full, a room host & ushers will indicate that the class is full. We ask that you help us provide a smooth experience throughout the day by moving quickly to your second class choice for the presentation block.

 

I was unable to get in during the registration; will there be additional seating?
We ask that you get on the wait list so we can notify you if any seating opens up due to cancellation by others' registered. We had hoped we might be able to open up additional seating this year, but it we are unable to offer that at this time. Due to the huge response, we are currently evaluating some video streaming options to at least provide some level of access to those that were unable to register. Please make sure you are on the wait list so we can notify you with more details as they become available.

 

Should I bring my camera? Anything else?
Though you are not required to bring a camera to enjoy the day, you are welcome to have one there. Many people like to bring a camera to take visual notes or just record fun happenings during the day. Laptops are welcome for notes, though we will be unable to offer Internet access during the day. Air cards (or similar) are welcome and we encourage you to tweet, post photos, and otherwise tell people during the day about PhotoCamp Utah. Tweets and photos posted to our flickr group may be projected in various rooms throughout the day.

 

Do I need a ticket to get in? Where do I get it?
Immediately after registration you should have received a confirmation email with a printable PDF of your ticket. We ask that you print and bring this with you to help in speeding up the registration process.
If you do not have your ticket with you, a picture ID will be required. Registration will take place in the lobby directly outside the main auditorium.

 

Will the pre-purchased lunches be distributed?
There will be a row of tables for each type of boxed lunches (chicken, turkey, roast beef or misc). There will be two lines one on each side of the table. These two lines are bread divisions, white on one side wheat on the other. All wraps and gluten free breads will be on the fourth misc. table. There will be signs at the beginning of each line to designate which table is for which type of lunch.

 

Will there be vendors/sponsors at the event?
Yes! We are happy to announce that several local supporters of PhotoCamp Utah will be on site with us. Be sure to find their tables in the main lobby area and let them know how much we appreciate their help putting on this great event!

 

Parking
The Miller Conferencing Center has a large parking lot to the North of the Enterprise center that we will be meeting. There is no charge for parking. Please be sure to lock your vehicle and leave no valuables inside as there will be no staff monitoring the parking lots throughout the day.

 

Can I bring children to PhotoCamp Utah?
Though we understand finding childcare for a full day may be difficult for some, we ask that no non-ticketed children come with you to the event, including any babies or toddlers. Our goal is to make sure every attendee is able to gain the most possible from this event without the distraction that young children may create during a presentation.

 

Are the presentation rooms wheelchair accessable?
Yes! All of the rooms we will be using at the Miller Conferencing Center are wheelchair accessible.

 

Can I change my food or t-shirt choices I made at registration?
You are welcome to change or update your food & shirt choices until March 1, 2010. After this time we will be placing the orders with vendors and cannot allow any further changes. If you would like to review or change your selection, check your confirmation email (sent immediately after registering) for a link to view your order. From the linked page you can choose to edit your registration information.

 

If I have a last minute conflict and cannot attend, can I get a refund?
If you need to cancel your registration prior to March 1, 2010, please contact staff@photocamputah.com to request a cancellation and refund. We will open up your seat to someone on the wait list. After March 1, we can cancel your registration and make the seat available but we are unable to offer any refunds. No refunds will be issued after March 1, including the day of the event.
