News for 2010!
Welcome Letter! - From Our New President
Welcome!
For those of you who may not know me - let me start with a quick intro. I'm Jennifer Polixenni Brankin and the new ASMP TUCSON chapter president. If I haven't met you yet I look forward to meeting you at one of our next events, I look forward to stepping into this role and putting into practice all the wonderful skills I learnt from being vice president for Amy Blackburn. (Thank you Amy!) OK back to business!!
Here at ASMP TUCSON we are striving to bring you the latest information consolidated in a bi-monthly newsletter. Please, let me know if there is something else you want to see here or any suggestions for future events. This is our chapter and I need you to help me and the board create events that you're passionate about attending and getting involved with. Feel free to email me if you have any suggestions or feedback.
To highlight a few things in this newsletter I want to draw your attention to volunteer opportunities with Habitat for Humanity - they are looking for volunteer photographers for this weekend! There are some fun and interesting events that are coming up in the next few weeks. Take a peek at the newly re-designed ASMP TUCSON website and learn about another great benefit of being an ASMP member!
I look forward to seeing you at our next event and learning to fill these large shoes over the coming year!
Check out the rest of the newsletter here.
Cheers!
Jennifer Polixenni Brankin
ASMP TUCSON Chapter President

A new Chapter President!
In other chapter news, Jennifer Polixenni Brankin is our new chapter president! Jennifer's unique photography meshes photojournalistic style with fashion-photography consciousness. She has extensive experience in both studio photography all the way though to elaborate location shoots, art directing models, and large groups of people. We look forward to Jennifer's vision for ASMP Tucson as she takes the baton from outgoing President Amy Sue Blackburn. Amy will continue to work closely with Jennifer to ensure the momentum gained during Amy's tenure won't be lost.
