St. Edwards Photo Club Studio Class

Vero Beach Photography got a boost Thursday when Southeast Studio Gallery and Sebastian Mark Photography hosted the St. Edwards Photography club for an introduction to studio photography. The students were instructed in using a one-light studio set-up as well as how to recognize good verses bad lighting in magazines and portrait photography. The class was taught by Vero Beach photographers Boris Robinson and Denise Ritchie. Special thanks to Debra Kappel and her daughter Sarah for organizing the event. Sarah is a founding member of the St. Edwards Photography club.

Toys For Tots

Master Event Organizer and all around good guy Gary Trump put together a Toys for Tots catch and release fishing tournament Saturday December 11th at the beach on North Hutchinson Island, Fort Pierce, Florida. Just under 50 fish were caught with Raymond Riley winning the event with a 19 inch bluefish. Marine Corps Reserve Tots for Toys Commander Nathaniel Wells was given a very large box of toys and several hundred dollars in donations. Prizes and gift certificates for the fisherman were donated by: Harbortown Restaurant and Marina, Out of Bounds Restaurant, Sharkey’s Restaurant, Tabacco Emporium, and J Camm Fishing Lures. Special thanks go out to Gary Trump for organizing the event and the wonderful barbeque afterwards. Snapshots were taken by Elaine Mancusi and Boris Robinson.
