Bio:

Joan joined NVPS in 2015. 

Although she has always enjoyed photographing family and places she visited, she was not sure that she would enjoy being a part of a photography club. Joan was using a point and shoot camera at the time and knew nothing about F stop, Shutter Speed, or ISO.  Needless to say Joan has learned a lot in the past 10 years and now shoots with the mirrorless Fuji X-T3.

She enjoys shooting landscapes, flowers, and abstracts. She loves doing post processing on the computer as it encourages her creative juices. Four years ago she joined St. Stephens United Methodist Church’s photography ministry enabling her to branch out in photography as well as offering assistance in documenting happenings at the church. 

Joan was an educator and taught elementary school before her children were born. After kids, she chose part time teaching and eventually administration in Early Childhood. 

Yes, Joan is happy she joined NVPS as the group has inspired her to try new techniques and enabled her to enjoy the works of so many excellent photographers.
