TPPA works hard to keep you up to date and plugged in. We do this through a variety of websites and through social media.
In this issue, I will share with you how to keep on top of all that TPPA has to offer and how to navigate the various outlets we use to help you get more from your membership.
I know, it is a funny name. But Wild Apricot is a membership database used by many associations, including TPPA, for keeping up with its members. All membership data is entered and maintained on this site, as well as dues payments and renewals, event payments and contact information that we need to maintain your membership.
Everything dealing with membership can be handled at TPPAMembership.com.
As a matter of fact, it is a great idea for you to go there now. Add your headshot, website and make sure we have your contact info. If you wish, agree to allow the public to see your listing when they are searching for a photographer in the “Find a Photographer” section.
Add your PPA Number, degrees and if you are a CPP. Add sample images. The more complete your profile, the better!

What is TPPA365?

At TPPA365.com, you can you download a free set of custom digital mats, watch videos on sport posing and download free studio forms.
