Officially apart of the Club

Congratulations to us! We are officially a club at MATC!

Last Friday, Leo, Ashley and I went to the school Senate meeting and presented our case. We were accepted as a club!


We already have a few things in the works.

First of all, I've mentioned our Linked In event in November, which we can discuss at the next meeting in more detail. I'd also like to discuss the opportunity to present art work to display in Academic Service classrooms on all four campuses. I'll work on finding out more information before the next meeting to let everyone know about it.

Just a reminder that this website is a place for everyone to share about their love of photography, cool links, and your own photography.

See you at the next meeting!

Fall Colors

As the leaves begin to change colors, I thought it might be a fun trip to head out to Holy Hill to photograph. Is anyone interested in going? I was thinking of going this Sunday afternoon, October 5th around 2 pm. Let me know if you're interested in carpooling out there or just meeting there! I'd love to photograph with others!
