Charge low admission price and then hope you'll spend a fortune once your inside. Autographs will probably cost £20.00 plus.

Ouch!

Is that supplying you with a photo to be autographed too?

What about photo sessions?

They have a selection of photos you can choose from or you can bring your own item (same cost whatever you get signed).

No photo sessions hon, and depending on the size of the queue you might even be a bit rushed to even take one yourself

I'm not making this sound very good am I? I've only been to one LFCC and only bought one autograph - Billy Boyd, if you're wondering - maybe someone else has more experience of their events and could add to this?

Autographs are usually £10-£25 per signature. They can be more expensive for big name stars. If there is time you can take photographs of the stars for free when you get the autograph. You bring your own item or there are photos.

You can be waiting a long time to get the autograph, but you don't have to queue. They have a ticket system which means you can visit the stalls.

It's cheap if you only want a couple of autographs, but if the entire cast and Joss turn up you will need a loan.

I have perused the other sites and I have to say it is a bit sad that people are so quickly willing to turn on our BDH's. At least give Adam a chance to explain.

The photos are free, aren't they? Certainly they were at LFCC3 last year. Although needless to say I still ended up spending money on something to get signed...

Hey, should I get Adam to sign my "Got Mudder's Milk" poster?!

I would think that maybe they could be charging a little extra for photos - but I don`t know, maybe it is on the website or their forums.

So, Psychic, do we get to see you there?

I'm away from my computer for a day and look what happens! While I'm gutted for the people going to the Starfury event, I am happy that I'll get the chance to meet Adam. It's just a shame his appearance at the event will be in these circumstances.

I've been to a few Showmasters events and you always get a free photo when you buy an autograph. As you're paying per autograph, you can usually get a free photo even if you're getting a personal item signed (depending on the steward).

You're usually allowed to take a photo of you and the guest when getting the autograph, just ask the guest nicely. However, if the guest is incredibly busy, there will be signs posted stating 'no posed photos allowed'.

The following link will tell you pretty much all you need to know about attending:

Well certainly when I went last year, I picked up a photo even though I got a personal item signed. So I certainly hope it was free...! They had a selection on tables by each guest's queue.

The thing is, even though the photos are free, with so many stalls the chances are you'll see something (like I did!) and think "that's the perfect thing to get signed" - argh, more money spent!

Well, I wasnt planning to attend, because I thought the ticket prices would be pretty hefty! But £5 is good! And I don't mind spending a fair bit of money for Adam's autograph!

Considering I would have been buying a ticket to Quortoth just to meet Adam, that isn't too bad.

And hopefully, I could get a quick snapshot with Adam!

Although, my digital camera isn't fantastic.

Shame they don't do photo sessions!

Eitherway, hopefully Ill get a photo done with Adam at the Dec LA Flanvention - which I am considering slaughtering my bank accounts to go to!

Are the photos available like the 10x8's at Starfury?
