For example, the club is continuously growing with members that are new to digital photography. They may have a new camera they know little about and want to get started taking photos of their children. This is where the Mentor Program can help. In this program, a fellow Member who is familiar with the camera, will be put in contact with the member that needs help, and the two will work out a schedule that is convenient for both. Mentoring will continue until the student feels that his or her needs have been met.

At the other end of the spectrum, we have Mentors that are teaching studio photography to accomplished photographers with a desire to learn more about lighting and working with models.

The club’s membership is extremely diverse in levels of expertise, ranging from beginners to professional photographers. Because of this diversity, the Mentor Program has the ability to help Members with virtually any aspect of photography.

So, if you are an OCC Member with a passion for photography and a desire to expand your knowledge, please contact me via eMail and we will get started on broadening your dreams.
