Access can get costly and each show has different rules, but the bottom line at shows is they like to charge a lot for everything!
Mueller Booth
This event was held at the H.B. Gonzalez Convention Center and the focus was only on the Mueller booth. A few shots before the tradeshow floor got busy and a few with guest. Remember all Trade Shows require a pass for entry, and this includes the photographer. Some might allow an escort, while most others want a paid pass.

San Antonio H.B. Gonzalez Convention Center
This booth took up about 10 sections of the floor. Our wide angle lens was able to capture it without distortion. We also kept the overall look showing all the special lighting used. This was all done between other vendors moving around prior to the show opening. We find doing the photos prior to opening the best time. Usually when the show is closing the lights are shut off and everyone has to leave the room. If you wait till the last day, the take down process block most shots since everyone is in a rush to remove their booths within the given time restraints.
Accent Lighting is not a problem!
Wide Shots are not a problem!
