Title: Interior Architectural Photography

Judy Cravy grew up in Ohio and moved to East Tennessee fourteen years ago.  She found work as a manager for a rental management company where her interest in photography was spurred by the need for rental cabin marketing photos to be placed on the Internet.  Judy proceeded to earn her Certification in Photography from the University of Tennessee four years ago, and is a member of PPA and NAPP.  She presently owns her own professional architectural photography business serving Sevier County and the surrounding areas.

Her work includes homes, cabins, laboratories and churches.  Her clients are primarily rental management companies and cabin owners, but also includes Dollywood, Dixie Stampede, R&D Laboratories, and Worship Facilities Magazine.  Judy is a Nikon gal.  She shoots a Nikon DSLR and uses the Nikon Creative Lighting System as well as Photoshop CS3 in her work.

Title: Capturing Images Using Long Lenses

February 4, 2010 Presenter

Steve Crutchfield

White Pine, TN

Steve is a very accomplished photographer and some of his work with tips can be seen on his blog site at http://crutchphotography.blogspot.com.

Steve will talk about the importance of experimenting with camera settings and shooting in other modes besides “Auto Mode”. He will bring a variety of ‘long lenses’ and discuss their various applications plus hold a question and answer session.  This should provide everyone with some answers as to what it takes to get blur free photos out in the wild and the environmental issues one can face.  Steve likes to take photo images of the birds of Florida and he and his wife  usually make an annual trip there and sometimes twice per year.
