Local Photographer Joins International Non-Profit Council
Elkridge, MD —Professional photographer Vanessa Ard of Elkridge, MD was elected to join the Professional Photographers of America (PPA) Council for 2009 – 2012. A non-profit, international association with 22,000 members, PPA is ultimately governed by its members through such council representatives.
"I'm thrilled to share the views of other PPA members in Maryland so that we can be heard," Vanessa remarked.
PPA Councilors are professional photographers who volunteer their time and service to guide and act as the voice for their state’s PPA members. Duties include discussing and voting on changes to the Bylaws and Adopted Procedures and the leadership of the association (via the election of the board of directors and the Nominating Committee). They also play a crucial role in sharing the PPA message to existing, new and prospective PPA members.
