What we’re about
Meet fellow photo enthusiasts near you!  Come to a Photography Meetup to talk about the latest gear, swap tips and techniques, share your images and stories -- and have fun doing it!
This group is open to all - from beginner, amateur and of course to the more professional digital and film photographers. Only a handful of members are semi-pro, most are keen hobbyists and amateurs who just enjoy learning and practicing.
Be sure to set your e-mail notifications settings to not miss and event announcements or updates.
This is an active group with lots of opportunities for picture taking and fun exchanges with fellow photographers at all levels.
We ask members to contribute $5/year to cover the costs of site hosting and administering the group.  The individual events are either free or have a fee to share the event expenses (such a room rentals, speakers, special talent...).  You can find the membership dues page at:
https://www.meetup.com/The-Ottawa-Photography-Meetup-Group/dues
Our focus is general - landscapes, public events, nature, architecture, animals, macro, travel ... Just about anything but people.
If your interests encompass people, then also check out the Ottawa Model Photography Special Interest Group. This "People" interest is handled with professional models who pose for portraits, boudoir, pin- up, glamour, fashion, art nudes, creative themes, cosplay...
Once you are a paid up member, of the Ottawa Photography Meetup, there is no added cost to join the 2nd group:
