I’ve worked with Mary Virginia Swanson in different capacities over the past couple years and have always been impressed by her devotion to photographers and our relationship to the industry as a whole — from art to editorial to everywhere in between. Swanee volunteers on behalf of Blue Earth Alliance and other organizations, offering a unique perspective and a lifetime of wisdom on how to survive and thrive as a photographer. And she’s in Portland today!
