Mentoring Program

Offers club members a chance to learn photography from more experienced members who have volunteered to teach various topics. In addition to offering one on one support, the mentors often get together in small groups for outings. This program is open to anyone who is looking to teach or learn regardless of skill level.

Please contact Kathy Landsinger with any questions.

Being a retired Manufacturing Engineer and a creative photographer, I enjoy the challenge of seeing an image in my mind and then creating a setup to make that image, like Micro-processor controlled light painting sticks, strings and wheels (think Spirograph). Over the past 20 plus years I have been 80 - 85% successful in doing so, and have presented these workshops for N4C, local and distant camera clubs, schools, 4-H Groups and many others.

I enjoy photographing activities that have action. Because I have active grandchildren I have photographed baseball. basketball, football, soccer, hockey and dance. I have also photographed rodeo, moto cross and drag races. I also enjoy landscape photography, especially creeks, woods  and waterfalls. I can work individually or with a small group.
