Last MOPLA post, I swear

Here are some shots from SNAPSHOP's final exhibition!  SNAPSHOP is the main reason we went down to LA, and is the subject of our feature story in the June issue.  Here are some of our own, crappy behind-the-scenes shots (there will be some much better ones done by a professional photographer in the actual issue, we promise)

Set-Up:

Snapshop instructors praise final student works: (in order from top, our old and new friends Natalie Franco, David Healy, and Nicole Franco)

Presenting awards!  There's me ( on the rightmost)- editor, presenting copies of the MOPLA April issue of Snapixel of Magazine to the raffle winners (all student participants)

Thanks again to MOPLA!  Nicole Franco, Natalie Franco, Cat Jimenez, and everyone else we met there.  We had such a wonderful time and we're so excited to write up the SNAPSHOP article.  Tune into the June issue to see absolutely fantastic work from these talented high school kids.

I love Kahn & Selesnick.
