About our Program

Carolyn Whiteside will talk about Travel/Vacation Photography. She will cover several topics including equipment, apps, preparation, helpful hints, etc. which she will illustrate with some of her travel photography. This will be an informal presentation and she encourages members to participate and add suggestions for things they have found useful.

Carolyn studied education at Oklahoma State University, and taught at the high school level for 20 years before retiring. Carolyn and her husband, Bobby, both enjoy camping and traveling. She renewed her interest in photography as a way to entertain herself in retirement. After seeing her wildlife and nature images, local wildlife artist Wade Butler encouraged her to show and sell her work.

Carolyn is now a regular exhibitor at Gruene Market Days, Oysterfest in Fulton, The Official Texas Arts and Crafts Fair in Kerrville, and The Annual 4th of July Rockport Art Festival. She has won numerous awards, and has images published in Texas Parks and Wildlife and Hill Country Magazine. She also has images in an Embassy Suites in San Antonio, and the Gruene River Restaurant in Gruene.
