On January 13th, 10:00 am to 2:00 pm the National Capital Area Chapter of ISA and the Potomack Company (526 North Fayette Street, Alexandria, VA 22314) will host a photography workshop for the appraiser. The workshop will be held at Potomack Company in Alexandria, VA. The registration fee for the workshop is only $50.00.
This workshop will provide an introduction into photography for the appraiser— from basic field techniques and tricks to more advanced methods of achieving catalogue quality images.

Some of the topics covered in the workshop through hands-on demonstration and discussion will be:
