NAPCP Gatherings

Growing and strengthening the global NAPCP community
through inspired local connections

NAPCP brings together child photographers from all over the world, and strives to build thriving communities of artists committed to growing their skills, their artistry, and their businesses. We have found that our members yearn for ways to make in-person connections with local photographers — and that is how NAPCP Gatherings was born.

NAPCP Gatherings are formed and guided by NAPCP Ambassadors who are literally the eyes, ears, and face of our global association. Our Ambassadors endeavor to create personal relationships and networks on a local level and foster the collaboration that is a hallmark of NAPCP. Please contact your ambassador below for more information about the next gathering in your area!

  • Nearly ten years later, I am still amazed at the wonderful connections I continue to make in the industry, through this organization.

    - Rya Duncklee, NAPCP Ambassador

  • I love the excuse to get together with fellow photographers. This job can be lonely and it's so important to forge real life connections and camaraderie.

    - Tracy Cepelak, NAPCP Ambassador

  • I love organizing NAPCP Gatherings and getting people together. It is always fun to hang out with likeminded people.

    - Ute-Christin Cowan, NAPCP Ambassador

  • I love bringing my community together and, as an Ambassador, I am given the tools to do just that!

    - Maryam Salassi, NAPCP Ambassador

  • I got to know so many new and old photographers in my community. It has been amazing to tell them about the resources NAPCP offers and help them in their journey.

    - Pamela Salai, 2018 NAPCP Ambassador

  • The positivity within this group has been one of the reasons I renew my membership every year, and the Marketing Monday videos are a valuable learning resource.

    - Carolyn Ann Ryan, NAPCP Ambassador

  • Being a NAPCP Ambassador gives me the opportunity to learn, share, inspire and create lasting friendships among our local photography community.

    - Shelby Finkelstein, NAPCP Ambassador

  • NAPCP is an organization I am proud to represent and be an Ambassador for. For my business and brand, NAPCP stands for the values I have and I love reaching out and creating community right where I live.

    - Jennifer Kapala, NAPCP Ambassador & 2017 Photographer of the Year

  • Being in such a supportive and open group of professional photographers helped me not only grow and improve my business, but also inspired me to continue working on my photography skills and go after my big dreams.

    - Kimberly Tank, NAPCP Ambassador

  • The best part about being a NAPCP member is the community. I have met some of my closest photographer friends through NAPCP.

    - Carolyn Ann Ryan, NAPCP Ambassador

  • The NAPCP community is like no other. There is so much openness to share with each other and the connections I've made have been invaluable.

    - Kimberly Tank, NAPCP Ambassador

  • I love the face to face interactions at NAPCP Gatherings because you can't find much of that anymore in the age of digital and online learning. It's nice sometimes to connect with fellow creatives in real life!

    - Rya Duncklee, NAPCP Ambassador

  • Being a NAPCP Ambassador has helped me to grow my local network. It has been such a welcome breath of fresh air to have new friends to lean on, bounce ideas off of and share work with!

    - Mary Okner, NAPCP Ambassador
