Photography credit will be given and with permission, they will add your contact information in the Photo Book that will be passed out to sponsors.
Scheduled photographers will not have to stand in long lines to enter the pier. Unless the process changes, their name will be on a volunteer list at the pedestrian gate. After passing through Security (and magnetometer) (remember no knifes and liquids) photographers may have to go to the pier office (in the building on the pier inside security fence) to get their badge.
