Brand-new video tutorials by Professional Photographers of America kick off "Year of Inspiration" in 2017.

ATLANTA, GA (October 20, 2016) - Professional Photographers of America (PPA) is preparing for the 2017 season of PhotoVision, and is announcing the participation of Sue Bryce as the first instructor in this "Year of Inspiration". The PhotoVision programs are served-up through monthly online streaming subscriptions and are also available to photographers who are members of PPA at no additional cost, as this service comes included with their membership. To celebrate the new season, non-members can take advantage of a discounted, limited time subscription rate of $6.95 per month (regularly $19.99 per month) using the promo code "inspire", starting in November.

With hundreds of videos produced over the past several seasons, photographers can tap into PhotoVision to learn about all types of lighting, posing, business topics such as marketing and sales, environmental and natural light photography and studio design. Each episode expands and strengthens the professional photography industry as a whole, adding to PPA's mission to do the same. "I believe wholeheartedly in the continuing education of our industry, helping to educate photographers to master their craft and empower them in business is our ultimate goal," says Sue Bryce. "Being asked to work with PPA and PhotoVision to further the level of quality and success in our industry was a great honor. I have a strong understanding of the need to find constant evolution in changing times, and this evolution has not only kept me alive in business but it has constantly fed the motivation to grow and sustain in my career."

Previous videos include instruction from professional photographers like Gary Hughes, M.Photog.Cr., CPP, Amy Doerring, John Pyle, Melanie Anderson, Cr.Photog., CPP, Jamie Hayes, M.Photog.Cr., CPP, ABI, API, Mary Fisk-Taylor, M.Photog.Cr., CPP, ABI, API, Jen Hillenga, M.Photog.Cr. and several more of the top photographers in their fields.

It's real-world knowledge presented by talented photographers who've proven themselves to be great business people as well," said Angela Kurkian, PPA's Director of Education. "PhotoVision strengthens photographers who want to learn and helps them grow in their profession. It is an amazing resource and with the launch of the newest season, now is the perfect time to take advantage of it. The low rates make it a no-brainer for those who want to get a jolt of inspiration each month."
