PPA Award | Photographic Craftsman

Um, I’m not sure if you are aware of this, but our very own Jaron is a big deal in the professional photography world. He has awards to prove it! And although he may not ever wear his medals in public, we are very proud of his accomplishments and qualifications. For those of you not familiar with the PPA, It is the Professional Photographers of America and comprises of 26,000 members. It is an organization that began in 1869 and is an internationally recognized forum for photographic activity, education, information and professional standards. Jaron has taught around the country in dozens of PPA groups, and we support the PPA’s contribution to the industry.

Here’s the official report:
