Stafford, Virginia Photographer Receives National Photography Certification (CPP)

Gerald Griffith of Griffith Photography has earned the Certified Professional Photographer (CPP) designation from the Professional Photographic Certification Commission.

Stafford, VA (PRWEB) March 29, 2007 -- Gerald Griffith, of Griffith Photography, earned the designation of Certified Professional Photographer after meeting rigorous requirements measuring his artistic and technical competence. The Professional Photographic Certification Commission currently recognizes less than 2,000 Certified Professional Photographers.

The Professional Photographic Commission is the leading body for certifying imaging professionals. Certified Professional Photographers must complete a written examination, an image review, and adhere to a stringent code of conduct. Certification must be renewed on a periodic basis, ensuring continuing confidence in the professionalism of Certified Professional Photographers.

With this new designation, Gerald will continue to provide a range of professional photography services to the surrounding communities while advancing his knowledge through educational seminars, conferences, and print competition.

While there are a number of photographers in the Norther Virginia area, there are less than a handful that have submitted to the rigors of undergoing both the written examination and image review needed to receive the Certified Professional Photographer (CPP) designation. When someone evaluates a photographer to handle their important event or memories, they should definitely look for signs that the photographer is striving for excellence and not merely getting by with ordinary images. By looking for the CPP designation, a person can be encouraged that the person has both the technical and visual understanding needed to create professional images.

Griffith Photography is located in Stafford, Virginia and services the regions of Fredericksburg and Northern Virginia.
