Photographer’s Ignite was a smash hit as the closing program for WPPI in 2010! It was the largest closing program ever and the feedback was incredible.
Brace yourself for Photographers Ignite 2011, the headliner opening program at WPPI in Las Vegas! We’ll once again be opening the stage to proposals from all Photographers. Stay tuned over the next week or so for more information on how you can be a part of the excitement. We’ll see you there, on stage or in front of it 
Thanks to everyone!

Red Boot Design, founded in 2005, was started with a love for design (and a love for shoes!).
A sister company of Asukabook and Kubota Image Tools, Red Boot Design has a similar goal of providing photographers with service and products to better their business. Red Boot Design’s custom album design service and templates allow photographers to focus more on photography and spend less time in front of the computer.
Custom design is a perfect option for those who want something distinctive and truly unique. With every custom design, each page spread is created individually in Photoshop, without the aid of templates or design software. Our designers strive to showcase images to their best possible advantage, while telling the story behind the images.
After much anticipation, Red Boot Design released album design templates in 2009. Red Boot Design’s signature ‘timeless and elegant’ style can now be found in convenient drag-and-drop templates. Each template is fully customizable to allow photographers to edit to suit the tastes of individual clients.
Red Boot Design – A design resource for photographers… Because style isn’t always about fashion.
