News about our July meeting !

Dear friends,

As part of our educational programs we are proud to present:
Gizmos, Gadgets and Bar Mitzvahs by: Norm Kushner

Norm will discuss and demonstrate equipment he has build or modified. The idea is to instill some ideas for you to take away. Maybe to help your creativity. Norm will also talk about the importance of back up equipment and keeping it consistent with your primary stuff. Topics will include: Radio controls, batteries, light modifiers, brackets, and of course Bar/Bat Mitzvahs.
Please bring questions and anything that may be giving you a problem.

Our schedule is as follows:
5:00pm dinner at Hulihans (optional)

Thank you for you cooperation and we will see you there!

Our new meeting location !!

Hello everyone,

We would like to announce our new meeting location at Unique University Room fully equipped to accommodate our learning sessions.

Unique has open up their doors for us to use their facility, we want to thank Scotty for all his help. We also would like to thank Mathew Sweetwood, chief operating officer at Unique for allowing us there. His goal is to transform this location to a photographers community and to help us succeed.

For those of you who are new to Unique, they are a superstore equipped with the latest technology. They carry everything from AA batteries to cameras, printing equipment and more. They also have a printing center on location. Their snack bar is very cozy for anyone who has the time to drink a cup of coffee and to read a few photography related books.

They have allowed us to post information regarding PPA NJ that will remain permanently on the store for the view of all clients and possible new members.

We encourage you to explore Unique, it will be a great experience.

Unique is located at 123 US Highway 46 West, Fairfield, NJ 07004.
