• Our guest speaker, Adam Harpula, spoke to The Club about how to pose groups and couples for more pleasing pictures. He went on to demonstrate the different techniques he uses to get people to look their best in a formal photograph by using some club members in a live demonstration. The CCC wishes to thank Adam for his interesting and insightful presentation..
