The Image Photography Club

See differently. Think differently. Create with intention.

The Image Photography Club is an in-person learning community for photographers of all levels who want to grow their skills, sharpen their vision, and think more deeply about the images they create.

This group is for photographers who believe photography is more than pressing a button — it’s about awareness, intention, storytelling, and meaning.

🎯 Our Goal

Our goal is to help photographers learn, grow, and evolve — technically, creatively, and professionally — through education, critique, discussion, and community.

We’re here to create photographers who not only see differently, but think differently.

👥 Who This Group Is For

Beginner photographers who want strong foundations

Hobbyists looking to improve and get real feedback

Serious photographers seeking critique and growth

Working professionals who want community and conversation

All skill levels are welcome. Curiosity, respect, and a willingness to learn are essential.

🗓 What We Do at Our Meetups

Our weekly in-person meetings focus on learning, discussion, and collaboration. Activities include:

Photo critiques & image reviews
Share your work and receive constructive, thoughtful feedback in a supportive environment.

Education & skill-building
Topics include lighting, composition, editing, AI images, working with models, coaching and directing clients, and more.

Business & professional discussions
Pricing, marketing, niches, business models, portfolios, and websites.

Equipment & gear conversations
Cameras, lenses, lighting gear, and workflows — focused on use and intention, not hype.

Creative challenges & assignments
Optional prompts to encourage practice and growth between meetings.

Networking & community
Meet other photographers, share experiences, collaborate, and build meaningful connections.

These sessions allow members to learn lighting setups, directing techniques, and shooting workflows in a real-world environment.
