FPP Florida School
Daytona Beach
FPP Florida School
DBCC – Daytona Beach

The FPP Florida School is held annually on the campus of Daytona Beach Community College. Widely acknowledged as one of the best PPA affiliated photography schools in the country, the Florida School attracts approximately 200 students each year for an intense 5 day course with one instructor.
For more information please visit the Florida School web site at www.fpponline.com

Our annual awards banquet was held at the Park Plaza Gardens Restaurant in Winter Park and we had a really great turn out of members and their spouses and friends.  The restaurant was beautifully decorated for Christmas in a Winter Wonderland theme.   The food was incredible and the service was excellent.  Danny Rodriquez (Maurice’s brother) entertained us with beautiful piano music on the baby grand and his wife even sang for us as well.

Several awards were presented as we recognized the Top Ten Photographers, Photographer Of The Year,  Master Photographer Of The Year and Service Awards.  The names of all recipients are listed in another section of the newsletter.  In addition, we gave out several great door prizes.  Domenico was our designated photographer and he did a great job of capturing the spirit of the evening.

One of California’s Top Wedding Photographers
2008 Photographer of the Year
Canon’s “Explorers of Light” member.

SkluteHeadshot_2008Ken Sklute, M.Ph.Cr.

As photographers we all look at the world and see things uniquely. We often move to fast and miss what is right in front of us. Ken will share his perspective and help you to be more in touch with your creative vision and teach you to see. We routinely pass magnificent locations, without stopping because we are not really seeing what is there. Ken will explain how he goes about finding locations, subjects and photographic environments that yield award winning results. Together we will explore creative ways of composing. You will learn to see light that carves your subject with grace, depth and dimension. He will motivate and ignite your passion, enabling you to take your craft to a new level of excellence.
