MARCH MEETING – MARCH 14,2012 – EVERGREEN BERGEN PARK FIRE STATION 7:00pm (6:30pm SOCIAL TIME) PRESENTER: JERRY WALTERS
BIO: Jerry Walters
“In 1995 I took a leap of faith, (a very exciting and scary leap) and became a “full time professional photographer.” I had $7000 in a bank account and a calendar that was absolutely empty; now 17 years later we average over 300 sessions per year. I believe my success is due to perseverance and being open to new ideas. Our studio Blue Talon Photography specializes in senior and family portrait photography. The studio is on 5 acres with a beautiful garden, scenic views and a 900 sq foot camera room with reception, which allows me to do most of my work on site.
