Description
Working for non-profits has many advantages- beyond the good feeling you get by helping others. This market is often over-looked and it is in desperate need of good photography. The work is rewarding, has creative freedom, and doesn't necessarily have to be non-profit for the photographer. Scott Streble will cover a variety of topics surrounding photographing for non-profit organizations, from finding clients to working in sensitive situations.
