Spring Means Conference Time!

It's almost here and everyone is getting very excited. Members of PPSNYS and PPANJ are preparing to meet and learn. And... you don't have to be a member of an organization to join in the fun!

The Photo North East Conference will be held April 6 - 9, 2013 at the Westchester Marriott Hotel. The speakers are excellent and the Trade Show will be full of wonderful new items for you to see in person. There is nothing like holding that camera in your hands and clicking the shutter before you purchase! The vendors will be on hand to answer your questions about equipment, albums, prints/enlargements and everything you need to run your photography business. There will be specials galore!

Make sure you visit the exhibit of images from the PPA Northeast Regional Competition which is taking place late in March. The awards for this competition will be given out on Monday, April 8th at the Conference. 

Added to all this are the fantastic parties that will be hosted during the Conference. This is an exciting event and you still have time to register and reserve your room at the hotel. All the details can be found on the CONFERENCE WEBSITE.  We hope to see you all there!
