Here's some nice e-mails we're getting on the 2008 event....
I must say I had read a lot of wonderful words on the site, both from the management and from past convention attendees about your skills as a photographer. I had wondered how much of it was true. I was so impressed with your quiet, cheerful, professional demeanor. It was a real treat to be part of that. I now have a wonderful set of photos to serve as a backdrop in my home office above my autographed Impala model. Thank you.
I work in a highly specialized customer service area, and know FANTASTIC service and behavior when I see it. I am touched. God bless you.

I want to say first off, thanks for the fantastic job you did with my photo-ops this year and last year. I especially love my group photo with Malik, Samantha and Chad. That was my first group photo. Anywho, thanks again!

Greetings from Switzerland,
I don't know if this is the right address for the feedback on the Supernatural Convention in Chicago (Nov 2008). If not please send it to the right place. Thank you.
I'd like to thank everyone for making the Supernatural Convention to one of the best vacation of my life! Since it was my first time to the US it was also the best experience. And it's great, I also learned lots of new English words from being at the Convention. People were so friendly and I miss all the fans, we created like a big family.
Thanks to Chris for the great photos and the ladies who helped looking for the right outfit. Thanks to the Supernatural cast, they made this event perfect and enjoyable. Jensen and Jared were amazing it's just sad that there wasn't enough time at the autograph for personal signing. I already ordered the ticket for next year and like the German fans I don't mind spending time on such a long flight, because it's all worth it! Thanks again to everyone for making my vacation Supernatural!

Greetings from Hamburg, Germany,
It's so hard for me to find the right words that I wanted to say to you. The last weekend was so unbelieveable and til today I don't understand what was happend. The Karaokenight on Friday with Steve, Chad, Richard and Chad was so unbelieveable and than the magic on Sunday with Jensen and Jared. It was such an amazing event.
So it will be no wonder that I ordered my ticket for next year again and it doesn't matter to me if the flight from Germany took so long or something else. I would do a Creation Convention about Supernatural always again because I love it. And I love the organization.
So and now my wish for the next year. It will be very great if you can get Steve Carlson again and maybe Misha Collins alias Castiel would be so great.

I just wanted to tell you how impressed I was with the way you handled this year’s convention. I and my friend were a little nervous about attending as we both are handicapped. You and your staff made us feel welcome and put us at ease from the start. I have attended other conventions from other vendors and believe me you and your staff were the best!
In particular I would like to thank Jane Haber who did a great job of allaying any fears before we went to the convention and Becky in the photo ops room who made us feel comfortable in what normally is an embarrassing situation. Thanks to Chris as well who helped my friend up from her wheelchair so she wouldn’t have to have her pictures taken in it. I have to tell you—you all made her year!
The rest of your staff were also wonderful and supportive making the whole weekend one of the most enjoyable I’ve ever had.
I too like the way you allowed us to pick our tables for next year for the breakfast. It allowed us to get a table with easy access in and out of the room without feeling guilty about going ahead of the line. Even though we always take a back seat, it still will make it much easier for everyone!
Once again thank you for providing us with a wonderful event! We both have our tickets for next year and are looking forward to what I’m sure will be a fantastic event.

Hi!!! I'm sure you are getting swamped with emails and thank you's!! I just wanted to let you know that my daughter (allison) and I had an absolute BLAST!!! this past weekend. She had a very difficult time the last evening (crying) knowing that it was coming to an end. We took a late night walk in our pajamas throughout the hotel and it helped to bring closure for her. However, we've bought the gold tickets and autographs already so we are on our way!! Again thanks for having everything so organized, we had the time of our lives and are looking forward to next year!!
- M.
I do want to mention again that really all the employees you had working there were very pleasant and really makes it a special treat. The boys are just outstanding and so irresitable. Cant wait til next year. Have a nice day!

Just wanted to drop a note of thanks re: the convention this weekend. The VIP pass really made it more enjoyable, and I was delighted with some of your staff, in particular, Chris. What a sweet and kind man! Leticia was extremely helpful, as was Stephanie and Rob, and they helped make it a truly memorable experience. I look forward to seeing all of you again in March!

I wanted to take a minute to Thank you once more for helping to help make my Photo Op with Jason happen. I have waited 10 long years for that moment and you made it a reality. I can not even begin to put into words how grateful I am to you for that. You are a very special person in my book Chris, and I just felt it would be nice for you to hear it from me directly. I know you are used to dealing with fans all the time, however, I also know it's nice to hear how much we appreciate what you do also!
Chris once again.....Thank you!
- T.
May I just take this opportunity once again to thank you for all your efforts in making sure that the attendees get the most from their experience. Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving and Christmas and I'll see you in LA in March!!
- S. G.
I would just like to say thanks for the great pictures, you do a really great job!!! Thanks so much.

Thanks so much for all of your hard work to make this past weekend very enjoyable for a lot of people. You and your team have a got these events down to a science, and everything seemed to run so smoothly for the fans. I realize that an event like this takes a lot of hard work, and downright strategic planning on the part of a lot of folks there at Creation, and just wanted to let you know that I really appreciate it!
Also, your decision to allow us to chose our seats for the breakfast with Jared and Jensen in advance is very much appreciated. It is a very equitable method, and will allow us to get a lot more sleep the night before. Fantastic idea!
- K.G.
I wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed this past weekend’s Supernatural convention in Chicago. I was not disappointed by any of the event!
I especially wanted to let you know that I really liked the method you used for the photo ops with Jared and Jensen. It was so much more orderly and relaxing to have us all seated and waiting in the ballroom before being taken, row by row, to get into the photo op sessions. I would love to see that used again next year in Chicago (for which I’ve already purchased my gold ticket package).
And speaking of the photo ops, Chris Schmelke was once again awesome in his photography skills. I got photos with both of the boys and most of the other cast members in attendance and they all turned out beautifully. I so appreciated Chris slaving over a hot laptop so I could receive my jpegs on a CD to bring home with me.
I appreciated yours and your staff’s hard work in making sure we all got our autographs with the boys on Sunday. That was tough work for all of you, but it was worth it to me.
Looking forward to seeing you in Chicago next November!

I just wanted to thank you all for putting on a wonderful event. My husband and I attended both Supernatural conventions that were held in Chicago (2007 and 2008). Those weekends were among the best weekends of our lives. We are looking forward to next years events, and purchased our tickets for next year already (gotta keep our front row center seats!)
Thanks again!

I would like to say thanks for a great weekend in Chicago! You really put on quite a show and had such a great guest line-up! Thanks again!!
- T.
I lost my convention-ginity at the Salute to Supernatural in Chicago this weekend! I was a part of the wonderful Gold weekend package, and I was blown away by the quality of the weekend! All of guests were phenomenal! Steve's and Jason's concerts were a definitely highlight for me, I loved every second! Topping the weekend with a day full Jared and Jensen was just amazing!! Thank you so much for such an incredible experience! Thanks to Chris for the fantastic photo op! This will not be my last supernatural convention! But I think we need to bring one home to Vancouver to celebrate the wonderful city that is home to the show we all love!!

Just wanted to let u know i had a super time at the supernatural con. i will be back again next year hopefully in gold. Jensen and Jared were a hoot, all the guests were super. Great job to everyone involved in making these conventions. the bad thing about conventions is that it has to end. Thanks again for all your hard work, this fan is very pleased. even though i was in silver weekend package, i still had a great time. This was my first supernatural con and certainly not my last :)

I just wanted to send a note of appreciation from Fandom Rocks for the fantastic event you put on this weekend. Providing the table, auction item, and donations was above and beyond. The guest line-up was phenomenal, and every event ran extremely smoothly from my perspective. Personally, I enjoyed the new hotel, and I am glad to see you will be returning there next year.
