PPGNY President’s Message
June 1, 2011
By Paul Bernstein
GNY has some very exciting events coming up over the
next few months. First of all,
Portraits in the Park is just
around the corner. On Monday,
June 13, we are hosting three
amazing photographers who
will be sharing their talents and
artistry for a full day at the
Planting Fields Arboretum, one
of the most scenic locations on
Long Island. (See details in this newsletter and on our
web site.) If you haven’t already signed up, take
advantage of the early bird discount. Just go to
http://www.eventbrite.com/event/1643625127
and save $10 if you register before June 7.
June is also the month of our annual GNY fishing trip. Please join us on Monday, June 27 for a fun
filled day on the water with friends, family and colleagues. We will be departing at 1PM on the party boat
Super Hawk, leaving from the Point Lookout town
dock near Lido Beach. The cost for the day is $40,
which will be due at the dock. If we have a large
enough group, the price will be discounted. (Be sure to
bring your own food, drinks and snacks.) By the way,
we all came back with lots of fish last year, so get your
filleting knives and freezers ready.
The July 5 dinner meeting will be at Koenigs in
Floral Park and will feature a program by New Jersey
photographer Jim LaSala. To view his creative wedding, portrait and fine art photography, check out his
web site at www.jimlasala.com . I think you will find
his work to be extraordinary and exciting.
The Dog Days of summer will not keep us from
having some fun together. On Monday, Aug 15 we
plan to be enjoying ourselves on Fire Island with a
cooling ferry ride and sunset dinner. Members are invited to come earlier to have a nice day at the beach.
For more information, contact Anthony Guerreri at
agprophoto@yahoo.com .
The most exciting upcoming program will be
the PPSNYS Project 9/11. This state-wide event will
take place exactly 10 years to the day after the tragedy
of September 11, 2001. The intent is to document,
through our photography, how NY State has thrived,
but still remembers that dreadful day. The subject matter will be yours to choose, and does not have to be directly related to 9/11. The idea is to show what we will
be doing in NY State on a single day, from Buffalo to
Montauk. It doesn’t matter whether you cover a wedding, a professional or family affair, routine events or
some ceremony commemorating the terror attacks. We
hope to collate exciting photos from every PPSNYS
section and PPSNYS member and create a book showing off the best images that we, as professionals, can
create. The proceeds will be donated to an appropriate
charity. Specific information will be forthcoming
soon.
I invite everyone to come together and participate in each of these exciting events. I look forward to
seeing you all.
