ZOOM MEETING
It has for a long time been one of Norwich & District Photographic Society’s ambitions to host a presentation by the universally renowned Ross McKelvey MPAGB FIPF EFIAP/g FBPE who owns the Catchlight Studio in Belfast, Northern Ireland.
We therefore anticipate that members of the Society and guests will be wowed by this Zoom presentation - Studio and Location Model Photography during which Ross will discuss the use of both studio lighting and natural light. Prepare to be amazed by the excellence of Ross’s work - his attention to detail, colour harmony, composition and how he uses light in a way we all aspire to...!
We expect this presentation will be right up there with the very best we have hosted at NDPS so do not miss this great opportunity to be truly inspired by someone at the very top of his game.
Non-members of the Society are able to attend this presentation by purchasing a Guest ticket which are available only through our booking agent Eventbrite UK using the link below. However, since we expect huge demand fo the available Guest tickets we recommend early booking to avoid dissapointment

Ross McKelvey MPAGB FIPF EFIAP/g FBPE - Awarded over 250 Medals in National & International Exhibitions Photography has been his passion for several years.
Ross still regularly competes in National and International Photographic Salons - mostly in Print sections. His most successful genre is probably portraiture and fine art, but he also enjoys everything from Sport to Nature and digital composites. He owns Catchlight Studio in Belfast, and people come from far and wide to attend his lighting, portraiture and photoshop workshops.
He is currently the only photographer from Northern Ireland to hold the Master Award from the Photographic Alliance of Great Britain (MPAGB) - an award which is judged to "the Highest Standards of UK Amateur Photography" and he has since added 2 Fellowships, with the Fellowship of the Irish Photographic Federation (FIPF) and the Fellowship of the British Photographic Exhibitions (FBPE).
In June 2017, he received the Excellence FIAP Gold (EFIAP/g) distinction from the Federation Internationale De l'Art Photographique.
Awarded in 2018 and 2019, No.1 exhibitor in the World for large monochrome prints by the Photographic Society of America in its annual "Who's Who in Photography" publication.
