What we’re about
The Southwest Photo Club was founded in 2006 to promote photography education in a fun and amiable atmosphere. The Club is centered in Littleton, Colorado, although anyone can join. We have monthly meetings and events featuring highly-regarded photographers who present to our club members on specific topics of interest.
We encourage members to share their photos, not for competition but to help each other learn and grow as photographers. Each month, a photo assignment challenges our members to take images of a specific subject, topic, or something to stretch their photographic talents. The images are displayed and shared at our monthly meetings.
You can join for individual meetings via Meetup, but we’d really like to have you as a full member. Learn more about the Club at our website.
Additional member benefits include:
- Monthly presentations on a variety of photography related topics
- Monthly photo assignments related to our monthly presentations
- Pre-meeting social time plus numerous other opportunities to socialize
- Photography field trips designed to provide great photo opportunities and learning
- Mentor / Mentee program providing one-on-one help from fellow club members
- Archived meeting presentation videos and notes in the Member’s Only section of the website
- Member suggestion box, member survey and member voting gives you a say in the direction of the club and future activities and speakers

Journey to Self Through Infrared Photography with Sherri Mabe
•OnlineOnlinePROGRAM DESCRIPTION:
In this personal and visually rich presentation, infrared landscape photographer Sherri Mabe shares her artistic journey across decades, continents, and the shifting landscapes of her life. From her Colorado childhood to her early black and white work in the Pacific Northwest, and her darkroom discovery of Kodak HIE infrared film in Tampa during the mid-1990s, Sherri reflects on how infrared photography became a powerful path to self-rediscovery.
Drawn to its ethereal quality and its ability to reveal what the eye cannot see, she uses infrared to uncover the emotional presence of a place—while finding beauty in the ordinary. For Sherri, infrared is more than a technique; it’s a way of expressing memory, mystery, and a sense of belonging within the land.
This presentation offers a quiet invitation: to see beyond the visible, to move with stillness, and to reconnect with the landscapes we carry within ourselves.
SPEAKER BIOGRAPHY
Sherri Mabe is an infrared landscape photographer whose heritage connects her to Colorado's prairie settlers, the Spanish Colonial families of Santa Fe, and the Pueblo peoples of New Mexico.
This deep-rooted history profoundly influences her artistic vision.
