Our December Speaker is Mark Maio and the topic will be “Photographic Life Lessons”!
Whatever point we are in our photographic journey, the tendency is to concentrate on which camera, lens, software or plugin we think we need to make better photographs. While the tools we use are important, what we see, feel and say through them is even more important. Going beyond the technical aspects of image making and using his dual career in photography (medical/technical imaging & fine art photography), Mark will discuss how each half of his photographic life contributed to the photographic life lessons that have shaped his vision and voice.
Mark will amaze you with his photography and inspire you with his stories that elevate photography from a scientific pursuit to one of passion.
