About us

Ashford Camera Club is a small, friendly club whose aim is the enjoyment of photography. Membership is at all levels, from beginners to advanced, and includes both silver halide and digital photographers - although most of the club's members now produce prints digitally.

Membership

Membership is open to anyone with an interest in photography, whether they are beginners or advanced practitioners, using either film or digital equipment.

Meetings

Meetings are held on the first, third and fourth Tuesday evenings each month where we have talks by invited speakers, hold a variety of competitions at all levels - from formal prints to light-hearted 'match-a-slide' - and take our cameras along for studio work with models or table-top still-life sessions. The meetings incorporate both film and digital photography although the fourth Tuesday evening each month is dedicated exclusively to digital photography, where we use a computer and digital projector to teach ourselves techniques such as the use of Adobe Photoshop and the production of digital slide shows. There is a library of digital tutorial material for the use of members.

Anyone with an interest in photography, whether they are experienced and serious or just learning to master a digital camera for the first time, will find interesting meetings, advice and friendship at the Ashford Camera Club. Come along, free of charge, to sample a couple of meetings before joining!


Meetings start at 7.45 pm for 8.00 pm in St Matthew's Church Hall, Muncaster Close,
