6 Piper Mackay Piper Mackay s intrepid journey as an African wildlife and cultural photographer has taken her on adventures spanning the African continent; a land she fell in love with when she first stepped foot on its rich red soil 14 years ago. She instantly made the decision to change her life s direction and created an exit plan to leave behind a successful career in the fashion industry. Driven to create compelling imagery and stories that make a difference, her work breaks expectations by moving away from the beaten path, immersed in the cultures and wild environments she is photographing. Her passion for the natural world has grown into a lifelong commitment to inspire others to explore, respect and preserve the beauty of our fragile planet. Using this same passion and drive, she was able to overcome a decade of challenging obstacles and finally realize her dream of living, and thriving, in Kenya. Piper s photographs are licensed by Getty Images top collections. Featured articles of her work have been printed in national publications such as; Outdoor Photographer, Nature Photographer, National Geographic Traveler, Ranger Finder, and Selamata, as well as local travel and online magazines. Her images have graced the pages of Nature s Best, National Geographic, National Geographic Explorer, Travel Africa, WWF calendars, birders and numerous travel publications. She has won multiple awards for her photography including winning the African wildlife category for Natures best in Her images have been exhibited at the Smithsonian Natural History Museum in Washington DC, The Museum of History and industry in Seattle Washington, The Art Wolfe gallery, The G2 Galley and are hanging in private collections around the world. She is a contributor for both the Remembering Rhinos and Remembering Great Apes books as one of the photographers united in the Remembering Wildlife series that helps conservation organizations in the fight to protect endangered species around the world. Presentations by Piper Mackay It s Possible; Building the Impossible Dream Piper Mackay s intrepid journey as an African wildlife and tribal photographer has taken her on adventures spanning the African continent; a land she fell in love with when she first stepped foot on its rich red soil. The dream began with her first safari as a vacation, not as photographer. She instantly made the decision to change her life s direction and created an exit plan to leave behind a successful career in the fashion industry. Last year she celebrated 15 years of photographing in Africa. Piper will share the story of her transition, challenges, becoming pro, and what it took to finally compete the dream of living and thriving in Kenya. Five Critical Elements of a Successful Image Most photographers do not have the luxury of unlimited time to chase the light from pole to pole, but are lucky to steal a few weeks to race off to an exotic location for one chance at capturing mesmerizing photographs that stand above a sea of imagery in today s digital world. Culled from many lessons learned from thousands of hours in the field to extremely remotes locations throughout the African Content, Piper will share insights of what it takes to create extraordinary images of extraordinary subjects, rather than snap shots of an exciting subject. She will discuss the

7 five critical elements of a successful image; use of dramatic light, backgrounds, motion, emotion, and perspective. She will share the 2 most important questions to ask before you click and how she technically manipulates her settings to create dramatic images in camera. AFRICA: The Greatest Photographic Destination in the World. One the most surreal continents on the planet, Africa is a tapestry of the most dramatic eco systems, exotic wildlife and ancient tribes that are mesmerizing for the eyes, mind and soul. Experience the rhythm of its heartbeat as professional wildlife and tribal photographer, Piper Mackay, leads you on a visual journey, as well as sharing many stories, roaming Africa s wilds through Ethiopia, Chad, Rwanda, Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Botswana, Namibia, Angola, and Zimbabwe that celebrate 15 years of photographing its diversity and beauty. Frank Smith At an early age (3 years old+/-) I developed a curiosity with photography. My grandfather, Frank Fehn was an avid photographer, always with his Leica camera in his hand and me by his side. He bought me a miniature replica 35mm camera which was the beginning of my life-long passion for photography. Photography is my passion both in taking the pictures as well as the post processing techniques that I use. I am an experienced traveler having had the opportunity to photograph in places around the world. As a native of the northeast, I also enjoy the local scenery of the Pocono Mountains or urban decay and iconic subjects as well as historical sites such as the former Bethlehem Steel factory in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. My portfolio is diverse. I use the Olympus Micro Four Thirds system. My workhorses are the Pro OM-D EM-1 Mark II and the EM-5 Mark II. I use the OM-D EM-10 Mark II for road travel and family events. I use a variety of different lenses based on the camera and type of shooting I am doing. My attraction with Olympus is two-fold; first the camera and lens quality and second, the weight and size. My post processing is done with Adobe Lightroom, Photoshop CC, and various plug-ins. I am an Olympus Visionary. Olympus Visionaries are established, award-winning professional photographers who travel the world with Olympus products to capture life s beauty and splendor. The elite members of the program include several Pulitzer Prize winning photographers, as well as artists whose careers have included assignments around the globe. Frank Smith Olympus Visionary As a philanthropic photojournalist, my raw travel covers global themes, shedding light on cultural issues including regional corruption in areas including South Sudan, Haiti and Mumbai. I have traveled to many parts of the world with a focus on people, landscape and cultures, telling a story through his photographs. A large focus for me has been India. For the past decade I have traveled to all 4 corners of India. Additional raw travel includes Atacama, Cuba, Bhutan, Iceland, Central America, Germany, Norway and Mongolia.

8 A native Northeasterner, I often focuses my lens on national and regional scenery in the U.S. My work has been featured in the media, print, exhibits, and in philanthropic awareness campaigns. I believe photography is a constantly changing art form and as such I try to stay current by teaching workshops & classes every year. I exhibit my work in various galleries. My work can be seen on my website at or on my blog where I post my up to date work regularly at You can also follow me on Facebook. I was also published in Outdoor Photography (December 2013) and in International Opulence (June 2017) and presented a Ted Talk in 2013 titled Looking thru the Lens -Vocation vs. Avocation. In November 2015, PBS did the following interview with me. I inspire others through my workshops, classes and mentoring. My goal is to help others see the unobvious and to instill the desire for creativity. Presentations by Frank Smith Global Landscapes Nature photography is a broad term and photographer Frank Smith shares with us many different elements and aspects from his raw travel abroad capturing nature. Frank has traveled around the globe with a keen focus on landscapes in every climate and will share insights on timing, lighting and travel prep that will make you want to pack your bags! Nature photography requires patience to stop and pause over and over again as the tiniest elements of a scene can change in an instant. Frank will share with us his techniques and imagery from his many photo journeys. Outdoor Playground My Backyard When Frank is in town, he packs his camera bag and finds nearby hiking trails as well as destination locations that will allow him to capture every aspect of nature. When asked about his studio, Frank often comments that nature is his studio and primary focus. Research and the drive to find the best shots defines Frank s photography. Frank typically goes into an area with a pre-conceived plan but allows himself to deviate based on what nature has to offer. Frank will share the pre trip planning and his post processing techniques which will motivate the audience to plan ahead, pack their bag and be outdoors as often as possible. A sunset or water droplets on a blade of grass can create the most pleasing imagery. If you are not outdoors, you will miss all that nature has to offer.

9 Conservation Speaker Bill Lea Photographing the wonder of wildlife, wildflowers, landscapes, and a variety of other natural subjects from the Canadian Rockies to the Florida Everglades has long been a passion for Bill Lea. He has been leading photo workshops since More than 7,000 of Bill s photos have been published. He has authored three coffee-table books and co-authored others. Bill may be best known for his portrayal of black bears and the Great Smoky Mountains. For nearly 20 years, Bill has been presenting educational programs throughout western North Carolina and East Tennessee in an effort to dispel the many myths and un-truths about bears. He has appeared on Dateline NBC, National Public Radio, Midwest Outdoors, Animal Planet, local radio stations, news

10 stations, and a variety of other programs.. He currently posts a bear photo and educational message five days a week on his Facebook Page: ( The enjoyment of sharing the wonder of black bears and nature with others is second only to Bill s desire for promoting a respect for wildlife and all of God s creation. If you would like to see more of Bill s photography please visit his website at Presentation: Understanding the Misunderstood Black Bear Part I & Part II What is it about the black bear that we humans find so fascinating? Is it their size? Their strength? Or could it be OUR fear? It is probably all of these things and much more, including the cuteness of a black bear cub and the childhood association that so many of us have with the Teddy Bear. There are so many myths and misinformation about bears that few people really know the truth about black bears. What are they really like? Do bears have distinct personalities? How smart are bears? What kind of emotions do bears experience? Do we need to fear bears? How do we co-exist peacefully? All of these topics will be covered and much more as we simultaneously enjoy unique photos of these most amazing animals CNPA Annual Meeting - Host Hotel Marriott Hotel & Conference Center 299 North Church Street, Spartanburg SC Hotel Room Reservations Special Rate Our host hotel is the Marriott Hotel & Conference Center in Spartanburg SC.

17 Workshop: Unleash your creativity in Camera! Presenter: Piper Mackay Thursday March 7 th :00PM 5:00PM Once most of us develop some of the basic skills of photography, exposure, focus, and depth of field, we begin traveling to exotic places, snapping away at what stirs our souls, but we soon find ourselves stagnating at this level. It seems so exciting when we are pointing our cameras at an exotic subject, clicking the shutter, getting the exposure correct, and taking a sharp photograph, but soon, you find that your images all start looking the same, somewhat mediocre, and your photography is not improving. The magic really begins when you learn how to make a creative image through manipulating your camera settings. Known for her creative style, Piper will start this workshop off with a powerful slide show of compelling images created in camera by selecting different white balances, over and under exposing to create dramatic light and high key images, working with motion in a still image, and using multiple exposures. She will then work hands on with you to try all these techniques that can have great impact on elevating the style of your photography. Equipment needed: camera body (any style) and a lens with some range (24-70/105) or ) tripod.
