Prints with Andrew Fritz

Andrew Fritz started shooting with an underwater film camera during the early 2000s while technical and cave diving. He shot about 50 rolls of film. He didn’t pick up a camera again seriously until Oct 2009 when he bought a “real” camera in preparation for his honey moon in Thailand. He discovered a love for night and long exposure photography almost immediately on a trip to Quebec and again in Thailand. Andrew quite his software job in April of 2012 to become a full time photographer, shooting wedding, portraits, commercial and real estate jobs.

Digital with Polly Terriberry

Polly Terriberry and her husband, Tim, have been members of NVPS since the year 2000. They have also been foster parents for cats and kittens for the SPCA of Northern Virginia. Part of being a foster parent is taking pictures of the animals for the SPCA’s adoption website. If a picture speaks 1,000 words, then think of what it can do for a homeless animal. It sounds harsh but one is selling a product and that product will move much faster if it is displayed in a pleasing manner. Polly will be showing a few examples of how not to take pet portraits and will offer some suggestions on how to improve the quality of pet photos. She hopes to spark some interest in shelter photography among our many talented club members. It can make a big difference in the life of an animal.
