Viva PPNC

Recently, we attended our yearly spring convention with PPNC (Professional Photographers of North Carolina) This years theme was Viva PPNC- What happens in Durham, stays with you for a lifetime! The convention stayed true to its name. We came home with a lot of new ideas and plans. We studied under award winning photographers from around the country. We also had great fellowship with wonderful photographers and friends from around North Carolina. Also, Anne was sworn in for a two year term as the Director of the Central Gild of PPNC. She is very excited about serving on a board that has helped our business be what it is today!

SEPPA 2009

This last month Anne and Denise went on a trip to Athens, Ga. to SEPPA. (Southeastern Professional Photographers Association) They rode on a bus with 31 of North Carolina's finest Photographers. There were food, drinks, and dancing to be had the whole trip to Athens and back. While they were there they toured the beautiful town of Athens, posed with Bulldogs on the streets, studied with photographers on the latest trends, danced to The Band of Oz, (in Denise and the IP girls case, Sang with The Band of Oz), traveled the town with our favorite IP girls, learned lots of valuable knowledge about photography, and just plain enjoyed ourselves. They also had a themed college sports party and all of the PPNC (Professional Photographers of North Carolina) folks wore matching jerseys. They DID win the award for State with the Most Spirit. Yeah for PPNC!

Tackling the Art of Photography

At the beginning of this month our studio attended the annual PPNC (Professional Photographers of North Carolina) Convention. The theme this year as you can see was Tackling the Art of Photography. We went dressed in our favorite teams gear. Nolan still loves the Panthers and is hoping for "next year." Anne chose Florida because some of the grandchildren are down there. Denise and Ben are always rooting for Da Bears!

We had a lot of fun trying out our newest football moves!

Anne and Nolan's son, Spencer, and his family also came to visit for a little bit too. We always love baby Carter time!
