I am the unofficial "official" photographer for a group that meets annually in various cities in the US. The meetings are held in conjunction with a trade show, include group meals and have training sessions and speeches. Attendance is typically a couple of hundred people, mostly middle-aged professional men.

Every year the photos that I take look pretty similar...friends smiling at the camera, trade show booths, speakers behind a podium, meals in a ballroom, lectures in the training sessions, golfers.

Has anyone seen any photos for this kind of event that are better than average? I would like to get some new perspectives, some new visual ideas.

Thank you.
