Board Reports President’s Report - Submitted President: Chris Wooley a) Personal Life – Rachel and I finally tied the knot. We are so happy that so many of our photographer friends were able to join us. It was the happiest day of my life. b) Studio Life – Business is booming. I’m gearing up for a nice holiday season and finding a good balance between work and personal life. I’m also doing more classes, which I really enjoy. c) District or PPW responsibilities – We are at the half-way point in the year. We have the upcoming event in Chelan (Today!!!) and a few more classes scheduled throughout the year. If you have an idea for a class or workshop (or want to host one), let us know.

Met in Spokane with several past presidents and our current PPA president and brainstormed many ideas for PPW that we hope to put into action. I’m happy that the featured photographer has continued with MaryJo Allen as our current featured photographer. I’d like to see the facebook photo challenge resurrected. And I’m glad to hear that, thanks to Faye, the new print awards book is available for purchase. Vice President’s Report - Submitted Vice Pres: Rachel Wooley 10.15.2017 a) Personal Life – Chris and I got MARRIED, I am officially Rachel Wooley and I could not be happier.

Board Reports
Executive Manager’s Report - Submitted Faye Johnson a) Personal Life – Trying to enjoy life to the fullest! Finished painting the fence, nearly finished with the little landscaping project I have been planning out all summer (involves 2 yds of dirt and 2 yds of bark), and taking last camping trip in Nov. And sewing quilts in between…oh and that “real” work too. b) Studio Life – Busier than I have been in months. Got new wireless strobes and starting to feel confident in my senior photography again. c) District or PPW responsibilities – Always on my mind. But getting some things right and some things are done in haste and wish they were right, but I’m human. Helping with the conference is different with different players in charge. Trying to help where needed. Slow process, but hopefully all will turn out okay. Best thing is that no one ever knows what is not going right, since they weren’t in the planning of it. Updated the Feature Photographer, made a Fall Event page, put Save the Date banner on front page, updated the OPP with Rachel Ik’s help, planning on my trip to Nashville for the Affiliates meeting, working with Bruce and Marathon with advertising the Fall Event along with Josh Hudson on Facebook advertising. d) What is one goal I have for my district/job for this year? Try to nail down some big speakers for conference, keep the books square, update the website when needed and track down delinquent paying members. PPA Council’s Report – not submitted
PPW Board Meeting Fall 2017
District Representatives Reports
Southwest District Rep #1 (aka Olympic) – Submitted Ernst Urlich-Schafer No real report to give. As usual I try real hard to reach out to a number of portrait photographers in our area, letting them know about PPW, share our newsletter with them and offer any other educational opportunities that I come across. Sorry to say but the reply I get is pretty nil. ;-( Ernst Southwest District Rep #2: (Aka Southwest (SW)) - Submitted Larry Ikenberry a) Personal Life - Rachel and I are both thankful for good health and are always burning the candle at both ends. We made a trip to Kansas in late August for a final farewell to my brother who passed on two weeks later from bone cancer. I worked for him on his farm and ranch every summer for eight years to pay my way through college. Many great memories. During nice weather, I try to always get a new perspective on everything from about 3000 feet in the sky, while winging my way around Western Washington. Glad to have passengers, but being alone in the sky is always a great time of solitude. b) Studio Life - What is happening in my studio? c) District or PPW responsibilities - What is happening? d) In what area(s) do I need help, mentoring, or support? e) What is one goal I have for my district/job for this year? e) District News and Updates? In July, Thirteen members of SW District , including the Westons from Edmonds, met at Priest Point Park, on Puget Sound, for a picnic. Grilled, marinated chicken was on the menu and was a hit. September 18. Kari Stucky hosted SW at her new Studio K in Centrailia. April Kronke from Oregon came to give an informative program on maximizing business portraits and sales. Jamison Johnson from Seattle and Mark Turner from Bellingham also were in attendance. Jamison received his AFP Degree and Medallion. Announcements were made about Print Competition coming three weeks before Conference. Oktober Photofest in Chelan was announced. SW will celebrate with a Christmas party at Coopers studio in Shelton on December 4. Looking forward to this being my last meeting as SW Rep. after two years.
PPW Board Meeting Fall 2017 Northwest District Rep #1: (aka Northwest) -Submitted Mark Turner a) Personal Life - What is going on in my family, personal, health? b) Studio Life - What is happening in my studio? 2017 is shaping up to be a good year, with more clients and more larger sales. We’re not sure what we’re doing different. c) District or PPW responsibilities - What is happening? No Northwest District activity in the last 3 months. With only 6 active members in the district it’s frustrating to create events or activities for so few people. d) In what area(s) do I need help, mentoring, or support? e) What is one goal I have for my district/job for this year? e) District News and Updates? Northwest District Rep #2: (aka South King)–Not Submitted Bruce Hudson Central District Rep #1: (aka Central) – Not Submitted Lynette Smith Central District Rep #1: (aka Yakima) – Not Submitted Tavis Guild Eastern District Rep #1: (aka Southeast (SE)) - Submitted Sonja Yearsley a) Personal Life - What is going on in my family, personal, health? Family is good, we just moved and things have been hectic. Personally, I’ve been so busy that I quit my networking groups. It’s a good problem to have, but some days I’m feeling like I’m underwater. My health is okay, I don’t want to elaborate. There’s some pain management and we’ll see where it goes. b) Studio Life - What is happening in my studio? My studio is being built/finished, it should be done before the end of the month. It will be on my property so the commute is nice. c) District or PPW responsibilities - What is happening? We may have a new member, Sue Hayes – she is interested in having a mentor. We’ve continued monthly meetings except for the month of May when I was in the middle of a move. d) In what area(s) do I need help, mentoring, or support? I may not be able to come to conference; it’s going to depend on what happens with my health. If I end up in surgery, then I’ll be out of commission for weeks. The most ideal time to do anything big will be after the holidays so I don’t hurt my studio.
PPW Board Meeting Fall 2017
Eastern District Rep #2: (Aka Spokane) – Submitted Deke Cloyd The Spokane Interstate Fair was a huge success. My company did a fund raiser to collect the sponsorship money to pay for PPW to be a top sponsor and was highlighted in the 10k brochures, banners, flyers, posters and on the big screens during this 10 day event. I believe we had somewhere in the neighborhood of 170k people who saw this exhibit. This is all I have to report for now. Sorry, the fair keep us very busy for several months.
Committee Reports
2018 Spring Conference -Submitted Conference Chair: Heidi Swoboda and Julie Fitzpatrick Co-Chairs 10/15/17 We are working diligently on the planning for the 2018 Convention. It will be held at the Lynnwood Embassy Suites on March 24th thru March 27th. Judging will be done in Gig Harbor on Sunday March 4th, continuing to Monday March 5th. We are working with a facility that may host this. We have our committees and judges positions filled. At the judging, this year we will be offering the “artist Category”. This will be new for PPW and have 4 of the 5 judges trained to judge artistic images. We have asked a PPW member (who is a Master Artist) to help with advertising to out of state entries. Photography cases and artist cases can both have as many as 6 images in them ($20 extra for the 2 extra images per case), so start creating. ACI will again offer a print discount to PPW members for print competition prints AND they are offering their print award again for the best ACI printed print entry. ACI will also be printing 8x10 mounted prints of all of the digital entries so we may hang them at our print salon on opening day. At this time, we are working on a budget and convention fees to be published by December 1st (or sooner) Ways you can help:
We need trade show vendors – if you have a vendor contact, please forward to us or let us know and we’ll send you the vendor packets. Let people know about the ability to enter 2 extra prints per case (for $20) and the new artist category so they can get prepare their images.
Clarification: prints that are entered at the PPA district level ARE STILL ELIGIBLE to be entered in our PPW state competition. Many people are confused about this so please reassure them that their prints will be accepted. Citations -Submitted
PPW Board Meeting Fall 2017 Citations Chair: Rachel Ikenberry
a) Personal Life - What is going on in my family, personal, health? I am putting my perennial garden to bed for the year and finishing up picking any lingering tomatoes! Still have 3 batches of apricots to make into jam. I spend numerous hours a week studying Genesis for an in depth class I am taking, Great! At the end of every quarter, I prepare graphs for Larry’s reports to each of his investment clients.
b) Studio Life - What is happening in my studio? Retired! Not much here!
c) District or PPW responsibilities - What is happening? Trying to keep up with Larry’s needs as Rep for SW District. Our group is either getting really busy in photography or they are uninterested in getting together. It’s discouraging to offer great programs (Sonja Yearsley demonstrating underwater photography) and not have overwhelming interest. Does it really matter that you are not an underwater photographer at the present? No! We go to educational programs to be challenged, to think outside the box!
d) In what area(s) do I need help, mentoring, or support? I have a couple of personal projects I
really want to pursue, along with being a helpmate extraordinaire! So I am thinking of who might be a great person to take over as Citations Chair. Hoping to find my replacement before Conference in March. I’d really appreciate your help with suggestions of members who would have time, are detail oriented, and want to serve.
e) What is one goal I have for my district/job for this year?
f) District News and Updates?

Motions
Motion 1: Print Rule change Motion to the PPW Board Committee: Print Salon
Prepared by: Marie Martineau-Sandberg
Date Submitted: October 6, 2017
NOTE: Rule changes or expenditures not in the approved budget must be approved by the PPW Board before action is taken. Motion: I move: Any image entered at Western District in 2018 will be eligible for entry and consideration at PPW in 2018. This is a Rule Change for 2018 PPW Print Competition. 2nd Rachel ik, discussion, passed Justification: A brief statement of fact and purpose. Western District is in January 2018, and expecting our members to come up with 2 different cases ( one for Western and 1 for PPW) is unrealistic to say the least. This will be the issue for the foreseeable future, but we can take this one year at a time. Not allowing this will tank our print entries when we stop to think how many of our members enter both judgings.
