As a member of the Professional Photographers of America, we can advance our education and obtain “letters” after our names. In November 2023, I achieved the next goal, becoming a Master Artist degree recipient, and added M.Artist after my name! This week, in our annual conference, I received the ribbon and medallion to signify my degrees.

The 2024 Imaging USA conference was held in Louisville, KY from January 28-30. As usual I volunteered at the conference and met new friends, reconnected with old friends. I always learn something at the conference, and return more energized.
