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: Backlit : Drama and depth can be evoked through images that use the technique of backlighting. The interplay of light and shadow, as when capturing the glow of a sunset filtering through a forest or the outline of a person against a bright horizon, can create a sense of magic and mystery. This is more than just a silhouette. It's a way to enhance an emotional aesthetic in photographs.
