The start of the 2018/2019 APC season is just around the corner, and we are excited to have, award-winning photographer, Ron Clifford to speak at our September members meeting.

Anyone who knows Ron Clifford knows that while he is a skilled, award-winning photographer, he is first and foremost an encourager, a mentor, and an educator. He has made a career out of encouraging the creative soul in others. As a result of his commitment to building strong communities, he has his work featured around the world and has nearly 3 million online followers. Ron has become well known for his involvement in online and in-person mentoring in photography, life, and business. He is a director of the Google Plus Mentorship Program for Photographers and Is a Master in the online education platform called, “The Arcanum”. Along with teaching online, Ron is also a Photography Guide for One Ocean Expeditions on unique Photography Symposiums to some of the most remote places on earth.

In Ron’s own words;
I’m a visual storyteller. I always say, “Do what you can’t help but do“
and for me, that is to capture the BEAUTY and CHARACTER in the people I meet and the places I travel to. I love to shoot in Nature, especially landscapes and wildlife. Recently I have been very fortunate to be able to build my portfolio of images from the extreme regions of the planet. Both the Arctic and Antarctica. Along with my passion for the natural world, I love to photograph people and I remain a very active portrait photographer with a quaint Studio just north of Toronto in historic Newmarket Ontario, Canada.

I love to explore the natural world, photograph the people in it and teach others to do the same.

I have the best job in the world.

Please note: There is a $10.00 guest fee for all non-members attending this event.
