PHOTOCLUB EVENT OPTIONS
Workshops (Formerly PhotoTalks)
Approximately every second week during term. We hold a range of tutorials (we like to call them Workshops) based on themes such as those in the calendar above. Please bring your camera as there will generally be an opportunity to experiment! These events aim to make you aware of new opportunities, teach you new techniques and of course…have fun! What’s even better is that we offer free food and drinks in selected Workshops!
Check out the recording to find out more about our Workshops!
Outings
Approximately every second weekend during term PhotoClub conducts PhotoWalks around Sydney to hone PhotoTalk and workshop skills. They are great mediums for new and diverse photographic subjects. There will generally be an objective during Outings and the best photos will be featured on our Insta – yes we will give you a shout out for free!
Learn more about our outings by watching the event highlight!
RoadTrips / DayTrips
We hold short RoadTrips (generally 3 nights and 4 days) or Day Trips (1 day) during the Term 1, Term 2 and end-of-year holidays, to adventure into new landscapes with a group of like-minded photography and travel enthusiasts. Past trips have been Jervis Bay, Melbourne, Port Stephens, Canberra, Blue Mountains, Bowral, Kiama and more!
