DENNIS CRAFT

Dennis has had a studio in Marshall Michigan with his wife Lori for over forty years. His days are spent photographing families, children and seniors. In the last ten years they have built a school and event business to add additional opportunities for their studio. Dennis never stops the learning process and because of that each day brings new and exciting rewards as he creates memories for his clients. Dennis earned his Master of Photography degree for the Professional Photographers of America in 1991, and his Craftsman Degree in 1993. He received his Fellowship degree from the American Society of Photography in 1997. In 2021 Dennis reached the 1000 Merit milestone with PPA. Image competition has been a major part of his career serving as a PPA Affiliate juror and a JC for over 20 years. Image competition is a huge learning experience and has been one of the tools used to hone his skills. Dennis has served on many committees and boards at the local, state and national level. He served as President of the Professional Photographers of America in 2008 – 2009. His desire to pass on the knowledge he has been blessed with is why he continues to give back still today.
