I am really Happy right now! I had to pass a written exam and an image submission review in order to become a Certified Professional Photographer, but it was a great way to know things I didn't was aware I knew, ha ha! I got today my kit with my certificate as a new member for the PPA, the largest and oldest association in the world related to photography. As I read in their documents, PPA was formed in April 1880 as the Photographers Association of America (PAA). The name was changed to Professional Photographers of America in 1958 to distinguish the association from emerging amateur photography organizations. The have something around 20,000 members on more than 50 countries! Professional Photographers of America continues to be recognized as an international forum for photographic activity, education, information, and professional standards. Today, as in 1880, the association continues to prove that collective knowledge and united efforts not only benefit individual members, but also serve to advance the profession as a whole.
