We are a group of enthusiasts with the common aims of learning, improving, but above all, enjoying our photography. It doesn't matter whether you're a beginner or experienced photographer – or whether you take your photos on a pocket camera, a DSLR or a smartphone – everyone is welcome at Taunton Camera Club. Whether you want to improve your holiday snaps, are looking for more likes and followers on Facebook or Instagram, or pursuing the ‘wow’ factor in your photos, come along and find out more.
Our season runs from the beginning of September until the end of May when we meet every Monday evening in a modern hall on the outskirts of Taunton, with easy, level access, but also out and about on photoshoots and other gatherings. Our varied programme includes speakers, practical sessions, photoshoots, internal review evenings and externally judged critiques, with the sessions grouped into modules that follow a common theme. When possible, meetings are also streamed on zoom for those unable to attend in person.
The annual Membership fee is £70, which is the equivalent of about £2 per meeting (there are no door fees). We offer a discount for couples and for students. Do come along one evening and see whether you'd like to join us, we'd love to see you.
Taunton Camera Club is one of the premier clubs in the South West and will be celebrating its 75th Anniversary next year. The Club is affiliated to the Photographic Alliance of Great Britain through the Western Counties Photographic Federation. For those who wish to, we can support Members pursuing a distinction with any of the governing bodies.
We recently held an exhibition at CicCic which has now ended but you can click on the image below to see a video of the event.
