My first IMATS experience & photos.

I was very excited to be going to IMATS. I woke up like a little kid on christmas day excited to leave the house. I got there pretty early at about 9am so I had a little bit of a mooch around before going to the Guru Summit at 9:30am. It wasn't at all busy before I went into the summit.

The summit was amazing. Sam and Nic from pixiwoo were there as well as Wayne Goss (gossmakeupartist), Koren (Enkoremakeup), and Elessa (pursebuzz). There was a Q&A session which was pretty good as people asked questions about YouTube and about getting into the industry. When I left the summit it was a little bit more full but it wasn't too packed. Around about 11am it started to really fill up and some of the booths were really scattered. Also most of the companies at the show were American so they wasn't accepting British debit cards, only credit cards which was a bit of a pain.

I got to meet Wayne Goss briefly and he is a really nice person and was hilarious at the guru summit.. I was going to get a photo with him but he was on his way to the gents so I didn't bother. I also met Sam and Nic from pixiwoo and got my picture taken with the two of them. I didn't expect them to be so tall, I'm only 5 foot 4 so they kind of towered me (haha) but they are really nice people and they were really funny at the summit. I met Elessa and Koren and they're lovely. I felt a little bit starstruck as they're such inspirations.

Overall I really enjoyed myself and I will definitely be going again next year.

Here are some pictures.
