Message From The President

by Aaron Patterson, M. Photog., Ohio CPP

Welcome to the 2011 Annual Convention of the Professional Photographers of Ohio! As we look around us, change is everywhere.

Change is all around us, in our businesses, in the industry and in our lives. Most obvious for the organization, we are hosting this year’s convention in a new location.

We are very excited for the move to Kalahari Resort, as it is a fantastic new facility with amenities compared to Las Vegas or Orlando. Since the photography world became digital, we all find ourselves on occasion staying up late with our laptop finishing up the day’s work. It is nice to be able to come to a convention that is not only full of education, social networking, shopping and friendship, but is also in a fantastic relaxing resort!

I have been involved in PPO for nearly 20 years. I remember the days of film and talk of a new version of Photoshop … Photoshop 1.5. Yes, a lot of things have changed, but the one thing that remains the same is that people need to continue to learn the craft of photography. No matter how young or old you are, how new or experienced, this is a place for learning the newest, latest changes and trends in photography.

Over the years, I have not had a lot of opportunity to be in the programs happening at the conventions; as I was usually working behind the scenes somewhere putting on these conventions. That didn’t stop me from learning. I have spent many late hours sitting around after programs talking to the speakers, judges and vendors. Here, I was able to learn some of the most valuable things for my business.

So don’t just come and attend the programs and go home, but be a part of the event! Meet as many new people as you can and transfer the knowledge from their head to yours. Many people have wondered where the photography industry will be in the future. With cameras getting better and better everyday, it is easier for anyone to pick up a camera and call themselves a professional photographer.

Many established photographers have seen this as a threat. The thing to remember is we all started somewhere. We were all once new at this craft of selling photographs and selling the experience. It is up to all of us involved in professional photography to keep the standards high. It is up to the new photographers to be open minded and eager to learn. It is up to the established photographers to bring them into the professional community and help them learn the same way those who came before you did. At this year’s convention, be sure to spend some time helping someone. Whether it is helping them find a product in the trade show or it is helping them develop a price list for their portraits, don’t be afraid to share what has made you successful in what you do.

The Ohio Photographer - 58th Annual Convention Issue

Message From The Executive Director

by Phil Craig

In order to bring new life and a fresh face of photography in 2010, the Professional Photographers of Ohio took significant steps to ensure the longevity of the organization.

To accomplish this goal, I began by optimizing our resources and added four members to the PPO management team. The addition of personnel has enabled our office to implement programs and streamline processes, making the organization more efficient and allowing PPO to grow in new and exciting ways.

Over the past year a collaborative effort between the PPO board and our office has yielded the implementation of several key elements to help facilitate our goals and ensure the organization’s continued strength and growth. We have taken steps to strengthen PPO’s most important asset, its membership. Communication with our members has doubled in the past 12 months and members have been receiving regular emails regarding upcoming events including affiliate seminars, the Fall Conference and the Annual Convention. Increasing communication has been vital in making key events like the Fall Conference and the Annual Convention more successful. More notoriety surrounding the various happenings of our organization has meant strong attendance, which has drawn more vendors and high-profile speakers. As we continue to move forward, members will continue to see changes that seek to further accomplish this goal like moving the Annual Convention to the Kalahari Resort.

Other notable achievements include a complete overhaul of the website, reformatting the Ohio Photographer, making the Contact Sheet a digital publication and a very successful Fall Conference and Trade Show. The new website format allows for easier maintenance, ensuring the website is always current and up-to-date. Members should also find the new website to be more organized, more informative and more interactive. The new website allowed PPO to implement key changes like online registration and a searchable database, streamlining administrative processes. In updating the organization’s appearance, our publications, including the Ohio Photographer and the Contact Sheet, have been updated to reflect the vibrancy of the organization.

As the photographic landscape continues to evolve, I am committed to developing new strategies to ensure the organization and its benefits reflect the needs of our members. I am excited about the direction and changes PPO is making and am looking forward to the upcoming year.

In Remembrance of PPO Past-President (1970 - 1971) Vincent Clay Crawford Vincent Clay Crawford, 83 years, passed away April 11, 2010. Born in Summerville, PA., he lived in the Akron area most of his life. Along with being a dedicated family father and husband, Vincent served as a U.S. Marine in World War II and was a staple in the Akron area.

Owner of Carpenter’s Photography for 50 years, he vibrantly served the photographic community. Vincent was very active in PPO, serving on the PPO board and in various committees over the years. Vincent was also PPO president from 1970-1971. In addition to his work with PPO, Vincent started the Ohio CPP group, served as President of the Cleveland Society of Professional Photographers, President of the Akron Society of Professional Photographers and served as PPA Council Representative of Ohio for 14 years.

Not only was Vincent dedicated to his studio, PPO and photography, he was a master at his craft.

Vince held degrees in Craftsman Photography, was a Certified Professional Photographer and PFA Photographic Artist Specialist of Ohio. His talent and expertise won him many awards over the years including Best Portrait Award in Ohio (1976), PPA National Award (1974), PPO State Award (1972), Cleveland Society of Professional Photographers Man of the Year and American Business Woman’s Beacon Chapter Boss of the Year.

The Buzz After Dark Educational Social Networking Extravaganza Friday, March 11, 2011 9:00 P.M. - 12:30 A.M. Grand Hall

Learn Eat & Drink

What a better way to open the 2011 convention than kicking back and enjoying time with other photographers. The Buzz is a perfect time for sharing information, while sitting around, relaxing and perhaps having a cocktail or two.

The 2011 Buzz is going to be bigger and better than last year. The Kalahari Resort allows for more space, in a more relaxed loungelike environment. Join us for some socializing, networking, but most importantly, education. At time of press, the 2011 Buzz facilitators are Terry Dunlap on Photoshop and Lightroom Tips, Jennifer Gilman on Client and Vendor Relations and Genvieve and James Nisely on Wedding Photography.

Stay tuned to the PPO facebook page, as our final two facilitators will be announced soon. This is a fun night filled with prizes, music (provided by DJ Scotty G) and food. We look forward to seeing you and spending time learning and relaxing with you!!

The presentation of scholarships, special recognitions, and a drawing for the Canon Pro9000 Printer will also be held during this exciting event. The Recognition and Award Ceremonies are open to all registered attendees.

The convention kicks off with a image competition, where some of the best photographers will be displaying their prized work.

Qualified national judges will evaluate each image based on its own merits using the 12 elements of a merit print. Those images earning high scores will be displayed from Saturday, March 12 at 8:00 am until Sunday, March 13 at 3:00 pm in the Foyer at the Kalahari Resort. Last year over 400 prints were shown and we are excited to see what this year's competition will bring.

Ask the experts.

We will have several Master Photographers on hand at the image display to answer questions on your images and give you tips on how to make them better. This is an excellent opportunity to help you fine-tune your images for national competition. Look for the "Ask Me" badges and the white gloves. We recommend you bring printed copies of your photographs as there will only be one computer to view digital photos.

Workshop [Additional Fee $79.00]* Room - Crown Palm Everything You Thought You Knew About Photoshop WARNING: This is NOT your father’s Photoshop program!

Today’s technology has given us the tools to create unique and stunning images. Unfortunately, it’s also turned our clients into competitors and diluted the market with products and “Whiz-Bang” effects that have the public feeling that they can do it all themselves.

Ever wanted to separate yourself from your competition? Ever wondered what the difference is between Photoshop & LightRoom? Ever wondered how to fix problems you can’t (or don’t want to) correct at capture? Ever wished you could retouch your own images and really make them look good?

Ever wished you could actually go home at night?

Join Mark for a day of exploration into Photoshop to discover what you can do that your clients cannot! Learn how to manipulate your images, not necessarily into abstract art pieces, but into images that will sell every time.

Other topics covered include: Developing an easy, consistent workflow, Working with new features in Photoshop and Bridge CS5, Correcting for flaws (both yours and your clients!), Retouching & Eye Enhancement, Lighting with Layer Masks, Killer B&W!, All sorts of image enhancements, Using automation to speed it all up, How to MAKE IT SELL! Don’t spend another day doing things the hard way! * Limited to 30 Participants

Workshop [Additional Fee $79.00]* Room - Acacia

The photography business has changed over the last few years. Since the demise of film, many potential clients now purchase a high-end digital camera and start shooting for friends, calling themselves professional photographers. Many of these individuals already have other full-time professions with great benefits and will charge minimal prices to shoot. Many true professional photographers struggle to stay in business wondering how they will make a living and pay the bills.

John and Linda Johnson offer a solution. They believe to survive today you must set yourself apart and offer things other so called photographers cannot. You must create a photographic experience like no other, mainly through the ability to pose, lighting and the "senior experience". Join Jon and Linda Johnson as they pose, light and shoot on location with a studio setup. They will show you how they select their areas on location, as well

24

as, their unique ways of posing their High School Seniors using a fashion flair. After which, they will share what they do with the images after they capture them. That's where the magic continues!

Jon has received many awards over his 27 years in photography. He was named Swimsuit Illustrated Photographer of the Year in 1997, PPO Photographer of the Year in both 1997 and 1998, Mid-East Photographer of the Year in 1997, CPP of the Year in 1997 and 1998, Jon was PPO President in 2007 and he received the PPA National Award in 2009. He also received the Walter Troup Award in 2010. Jon is also a PPA Approved Affiliate Judge.

Linda in her 20 plus years has won numerous Kodak Gallery and Fuji Masterpiece Awards, as well as, PPA Photographer of the Year, many Court of Honors and PPA Loan Images. * This workshop has a 30-person limit

When Jodie first began photographing newborns seven years ago, She found a niche that wasn’t covered much on the East Coast, and went with it. Now baby photography has become quite popular.

Join Jodie as she shares her approach to newborn photography and what has made her so successful. Jodie will be discussing everything newborn from posing to session profitability.

About Bruce Seattle area native Bruce Hudson has led a colorful and diverse life. His photographic career started like many professionals, as a hobby in high school. Bruce’s major interests back in the early 70’s were playing trumpet in the nationally award-winning Kent Meridian high school jazz band, and his first love, Sue Crum, who inspired his artistic direction in photography, both in front of the camera and in the darkroom!

As the business, clientele, and income grew, so did the number of photographic awards locally, nationally, and internationally. In 1993, Bruce and Sue won Wedding and Portrait Photographers International’s 1st wedding album competition and also the grand award print with WPPI’s first perfect “100” score.

The next 10 years took Bruce and Sue all over the country sharing their success photographic and business strategies to thousands of studio owners at conventions, seminars, and workshops.

In 1994, during a routine exam a cancerous mole was found under Sue’s left arm. It was removed, but 22 months later on February 17, 1996, Sue Hudson passed away at the age of 41. Bruce and the kids established a memorial scholarship fund in Sue’s name. Each year the fund gives a number of scholarships to professional photography schools throughout the country.

Bruce holds a Master Craftsman degree from the Professional Photographers of America and is one of only 40 active members in the prestigious organization Camera Craftsmen of America. A much sought-after speaker to professional photography organizations, Bruce has lectured on behalf of Fuji Film USA, H&H Color Lab, Mamiya Cameras, Capri Albums, Marathon Press, and Excel Frames throughout the United States, New Zealand, Canada, and Puerto Rico. Over the years he has produced and authored over 25 instructional video/DVD programs dealing with portrait, wedding photography and marketing. It’s hard to believe he’s photographed more than a thousand weddings and tens of thousands of family, children, and high school senior portraits since 1982. He’s also had in front of his lens, President Bush (41), future Hall of Fame pitching great Randy Johnson, and night time radio celebrity Delilah and her family.

Bruce has not only been named a Master Photographer, but also referred to as a Master Marketer that specializes in Relationship Marketing.

Bruce has recently begun a new chapter in his personal life, and the life of the studio. He was married October 2007 to Terri Arnold who joined the studio team July 2009.

Today, despite the loss of Sue, Bruce still holds a passion for business, marketing and the photographic profession. This actually led Bruce to write and publish his first book on the subject called The Relationographer: The Art of Relationship Marketing!

William Innes Saturday, March 12, 2011 4:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m.

Room - Portia Sponsored by Buckeye Professional Imaging

From the Boardroom to Lightroom In less than five years former aerospace executive, William Innes, has gone from a total novice to a profitable wedding photographer in the competitive Los Angeles market. William believes if he can do it - anyone can! William will share what works for him and what doesn’t. (He has tried almost everything). He will cover his marketing - including some surprising old school techniques that have helped to rapidly grow his business.

Other topics will include workflow (you have to be fast to make money), how to turn clients into apostles and some photography tips.

"I became fascinated with photography at an early age, thanks to my father. It wasn’t his photographic skill that inspired me, though, since my dad was not a very good photographer. We would always joke how people in his photos would have plants and trees growing out of their heads. It was actually my father’s camera that captured my interest; I loved the way it felt in my hands - all those cool buttons and controls.

It intrigued me. I was also amazed at how it could be used to create these awesome images. I still have that camera, an old German Praktica 5B, and it sits on my desk alongside my own first camera, a Canon Al. I loved the camera, but after college, I ended up in the aerospace industry (but that’s a story for another day). I must have done pretty well - I ended up president of an aerospace parts company. I got to travel and saw lots of amazing places. It was on one of those trips in 1999 that I walked into a camera shop, on impulse, and came out with a brand new Nikon camera, lens and flash. In no time, I was hooked again! Because of my extensive traveling, I thought I wanted to be a travel and landscape photographer.

In a bizarre twist of fate, I even managed to win a National Geographic contest for a photograph I took in Greece. (I owe my wife for this one as she constantly encouraged me to enter my images). I knew it was time to get out of aerospace and into photography.

About that time, my nephew in Canada asked me to photograph his wedding. Now, I got married in a powder blue tux with ruffles - maybe that’s why I had always associated wedding photography with those cheesy, posed images. But I said I would do it for my nephew. I bought a book on wedding photography, went to Canada, photographed his wedding and yep

- I had a blast! It was so much fun and such a creative experience for me that I knew right away that’s what I wanted to do. Six months later, I was a full-time wedding photographer, and I haven’t looked back at the aerospace industry once. I admit it - I just love action!

Wedding photography requires me to be an expert in all types of photography, whether it’s portrait, landscape, action or product shots. I have to be able to work under pressure to make sure I get all the required shots in, but then I can spend some fun time creating artful images with my couples. My favorite thing about being a wedding photographer is getting to know my clients. My couples spend their whole wedding day with me, so we have to be comfortable with each other. I often end up being friends with many of my wedding couples. Do I dream about being a world-traveling, award-winning photographer?

Not really. I’m happy shooting weddings full-time. I don’t even enter contests. I believe the true judges of my work are my clients. If they value my work, there’s no greater reward. Okay, for you organizational types, here’s the facts: I live in Southern California with my wife and two dogs. My kids are out doing their own stuff and are not into photography - yet. I’m currently a member of Professional Photographers of America (PPA) and Wedding and Portrait Photographers International (WPPI). I c u r r e n t l y w r i t e for three o n l i n e photography p u b l i c a t i o n s : www.shootsmarter. com ,www.thementorblog.net, Albums Inc 360 newsletter and present workshops on wedding photography.

Print Case Packing Instructions Unpacking and repacking cases at the convention is a big job. You can help us be more efficient by taking better care of your prints.

By placing a 16x20 protective sheet between each print, repacking the cases becomes much faster and safer. Using plastic bags, paper bags, bubble wrap and other bulky packing material causes problems for the volunteers who spend hours reassembling the print cases after the competition and exhibit.

Suitable protective sheets include: √ A discarded 16x20 print or piece of photographic paper √ Gloss tissue paper cut to 16x20 √ Smooth poster board cut to 16x20 √ Extra mat board cut to 16x20 Avoid surfaces that might damage or scratch your prints. If you pack your print case too tightly, its difficult to fit award ribbons and other materials we need to return to you in the case.

Please follow the guidelines set below to make the print handling run smoothly.

1. Type or print all information needed clearly in black ink.

2. Coordinate the print number on your label with the same print number on your entry form and the online form.

3. Securely tape the label in the upper right hand corner of the back of your print or transparency. This will help the person putting the prints on the judging turnstile to know the correct way.

4. If possible, in black marker, print the name of your entry at the top, on the back, of your print or transparency to help the person calling titles to read in dim light.

If you have additional questions about entering the PPO Print Competition please contact:

The Ohio Photographer - 58th Annual Convention Issue

Print Exhibit

PRESEN T IN G T H E A N N UA L KODAK GALLERY AND GALLERY ELITE AWARDS. Kodak introduced the Gallery Awards in 1985 as a way to honor and promote the importance and value of excellence in professional photography.

Entry Guidelines for the KODAK Gallery and Gallery Elite Awards

Kodak has always represented quality imaging through its many products and services and will continue to work to elevate the importance of professional, quality imaging within the industry, as well as with customers. It’s a connection we’re pleased to make.

Therefore, we are delighted once again to salute and support outstanding professional photography and photographers by presenting our annual Gallery and Gallery Elite Awards. The Gallery Awards are judged on a state or regional basis, with winners going on to compete at the national level for the GalleryElite Award.

Gallery Awards will be presented, throughout the year, at annual Professional Photographers of America (PPA) regional and state conventions — in addition to those events’ customary awards.

The annual Gallery Elite Award will be judged prior to the national PPA conference and trade show and honored at the Gallery Elite Award Gala, held during the PPA’s national gathering, “Imaging USA,” traditionally in January of each year.

Photographers will be considered for a KODAK Gallery Award in each of the following five categories: • Portrait or Landscape Print • Wedding Print • Illustrative, Commercial, Electronic Imaging Print • Printed Album or Book (any category) • Print or Album using KODAK PROFESSIONAL ENDURA Metallic Paper A region and/or state organization may award up to five (5) trophies total, in any combination of the designated categories. For example, if there are no entries to be judged or that meet the judging-point criteria in a certain category, more than one Gallery Award may be given in the other designated categories. However, Kodak prefers that one Gallery Award be given in each of the five categories, provided each entry has achieved the minimum 80-point criteria. The primary purpose of the awards is to recognize and further the use of professionallyprinted photography, especially if it utilizes KODAK PROFESSIONAL Products (papers and chemistry). Therefore, Gallery and Gallery Elite trophies are intended to be awarded for prints and printed albums, not electronic-only images and video albums (e.g., CD, DVD), which are outside of Kodak’s intended purpose.
