"Colleen could talk about mud and it would be good. She is an excellent presenter!" ~Anonymous, Sun City West, AZ

 

While we have yet to speak on the thrilling topic of mud (and I do find mud absolutely fasincating!), we'd certainly welcome the opportunity to speak with your camera club, group, or organization (whether you have five people or 1,000) across the United States.

 

All of my presentations are educational and inspirational--they are NOT 60 minutes of "look at my pretty pictures" and "let me tell you about all the cool places I go."

 

Program topics and durations can be specifically tailored to your audience's interest and the time available. As examples, popular topics include:

 

 

I also offer critiques/image review sessions for photography clubs, where members focus on a specific challenge and we schedule a time to review the images technically and creatively. It's a wonderful way for photographers to learn!

 

My notable past speaking engagements include (references available upon request; please see our Testimonials below to see input from our past attendees):
