Welcome to the New Westminster Photography Club
We are a group of photographers keen to improve our skills through club activities and involvement with other photography enthusiasts. Our members hold a wide range of photography interests and skills, and member sharing is an ongoing aspect of the club. Our club meetings are held in New Westminster, BC on the first and third Tuesdays, from September to early June (meetings vary in December and June). Our meetings are usually held in person and occasionally using ZOOM or other platforms. Club activities include educational programs through workshops and speakers, photography outings, and a range of internal and external photography competitions as well as exhibitions in the community.
Join Us! - New members are always welcomed! For more information check out Membership Information under the About Us tab.

Current Theme – Water Droplets: Think about using macro and close up techniques to capture the miniature world in water droplets. Shrink your vision to capture a reflection in a single drop of water or perhaps a whole spray is more interesting. Get out after a rain shower or create your own with a water bottle.
- Feb 4 – Club meeting: Sports – the Frame – Close-Up – Three Presentations. At this meeting three club members will share their expertise. Ian will share his insights about Sports photography, Geoff will teaching us about Close-up and Macro photography, and Glenn will talk about compositional techniques and more, as well as discussing a challenge for the February 18th meeting. NOTE: Due to the weather, the meeting has been shifted to Zoom. Watch your email for a link.
- Feb 7 – Feedback closes on the Give Me Shelter theme
