New to PPOC??

We don't expect you join blindly, so please take a moment to review our 2018 event calendar, featuring some of the country's most sought after speakers, we have recently had the honors of hosting Arthur Rainville, and Nikon Ambassador Vincent Versace, Jerry Ghionis, and Kristi Sutton-Elias just name a few. For an up to the moment list click here.

In 2014 we expanded our class schedule to include beginning and intermediate classes for those who wish to learn more about lighting. This year we will be continuing that trend with classes ranging from Corporate Portrait Creations with the Amazing George DeLoach to Fantastic Flowers with Karen Nakamura. Every month our General Meetings will also cover a different topic, including Image Enhancement, most PROFITABLE BUSINESS PRACTICES and today's trends.

PPOC's Image Competition is definitely one of the best image competitions, and definitely the best educational experience around!! Why take workshops blindly, learning what you already know. Image competition will show you where you need improvement, by letting your images be reviewed by other industries professionals. All images are reviewed on an anonymous basis. We offer not only the lowest entry fee, but we also make sure all images are critiqued so that you can learn what our certified judges see, and improve your images to advance to state and national levels. 

Now we also want to make it easy to attend and invite your friends to participate in PPOC. When you attend a meeting, let anybody you see know you are looking for PPOC, and they will introduce you to the attending Board members. We were all new at one point, we WANT TO MEET YOU. Feel free to bring a friend as well. We also realize that walking into a new group can be intimidated to some, but really we are a great bunch of people with different styles, experience, ideas, but we ALL SHARE PHOTOGRAPHY.
