Our meetings throughout the year provide opportunities to:
- Develop, improve photographic techniques (photo capture and post-processing).
- Learn design, emotional impact, storytelling and other fine-art techniques.
- Socialize with other photographers.
- Participate in monthly digital and print salons critiqued by experienced judges.
- Gain photography-related insights from guest speakers at monthly programs.
- Join members on photography field trips.

Meetings are held on the third Thursday of each month, September through May (with the exception of December when we have our holiday party). The meetings include a digital or a print salon competition and photographic presentations. Guests are welcome but you must be paid members to compete in the monthly salons.
