Speakers at the April 21st Whatcom BNI meeting were Phil Rose from Phil Rose Photography and Midline Design, and Patricia Craddock from Prepaid Legal.
Phil Rose is a photographer and graphic designer. His professional photography includes a wide range of kid portraits, weddings, commercial applications, and more. In his presentation, Phil shared an unusually beautiful style of journalistic photography for weddings and events. With this journalistic style, he is able to capture illusive moments and stories within events and between people without being front and center at the proceedings. Phil uses similarly unusual approaches to his portrait photography, especially with kids. By getting them to forget that the camera is there, he captures more than ‘cute’, and photographs a part of who they are.

Did you know that 80% of the people in Europe have pre-paid legal help? As a representative of Pre-Paid Legal here in Bellingham, Patricia Duran-Craddock is passionate about taking care that people have the quality help they will need at an affordable price. Pre-Paid Legal gives members access to professional legal counsel not only for traditional legal problems, but for everyday events such as buying a house or a car, creating a will, handling a problem with an insurance company, dealing with identity theft, and much more where legal review should be routine, but rarely is. These events can be among the most important events in a person’s life, yet there is a tendency for them to take place without proper legal review. With Pre-Paid Legal, there are no worries about being able to afford a lawyer. There is only peace of mind.
