DEXTER, MICH. — Professional photographer Betsy Finn of Dexter, Mich. was elected to join the Professional Photographers of America (PPA) Council for 2009 – 2012. A non-profit, international association with 22,000 members, PPA is ultimately governed by its members through such council representatives.
“When I first saw the election results, I was amazed,” Finn said, “To be recognized by my peers as someone able to help guide the photographic industry, and to be entrusted with a Council seat …that’s a big deal!”
PPA Councilors are professional photographers who volunteer their time and service to guide and act as the voice for their state’s PPA members. Duties include discussing and voting on changes to the Bylaws and Adopted Procedures and the leadership of the association (via the election of the board of directors and the Nominating Committee). They also play a crucial role in sharing the PPA message to existing, new and prospective PPA members.
Betsy Finn is an award-winning photographic artist. Named 2008 Photographer of the Year by PPA, Betsy is two-time recipient (2008+2009) of Michigan’s Top 7 Photographer and Detroit’s Best of Show Award. Her studio, Betsy’s Photography, is located in Southeast Michigan and provides creative photographic services for portrait and wedding clients.
