CSN Student Interns

This is Tori, I'm interning this week at Avant-Garde Images with another intern from the Community School of Naples. Tori, Peggy, and Paige at the PRACC luncheon, where Peggy gave a talk about using photography in marketing.

Raquel was great at posing and so much fun.

Paige and I spent a week with Peggy. We learned a lot and also had a great time. I never realized how much marketing went into photography. We got to do a variety of things like classes, client meetings, and photo shoots. I even got to participate in a studio session with two dogs. There's also a lot of busy work! All in all it was an eye opening experience!

Wedding Photography 101 Workshop

by Helen

Saturday, January 9th, Photography Naples was pleased to present our first "Weddings 101" Class here in Naples. It was another sold-out event, but, after the very successful day, it won't be the last time we offer this workshop!
After some important practical advice from Peggy Farren on the challenging aspects of shooting weddings and the essentials of marketing this type of photography, the group headed down to Old Naples to meet the models.



We had four Bride and Groom pairs, and were blessed with perfect weather and a pretty sunset.
There were some great results! Take a look at what some of our students came up with...
