Who We Are

 

The Santa Clarita Valley Photographers Association is more than just a gathering of people with cameras; it’s a community where creativity thrives, friendships blossom, and skills are honed.

 

We meet monthly where members can enhance their photographic knowledge, skills and abilities through photo sharing, guest lectures and friendly competitions that encourage creativity and exploration.

 

Our organized outings to picturesque locations like the Valley of Fire, Trona Pinnacles, Death Valley, Cambria, Big Sur and the Eastern Sierras, provide hands-on practice in diverse settings while inspiring new perspectives. 

 

The majority of our members are amateurs at all skill levels. However, some members are practicing or retired professionals and belong to the Professional Photographers of America, the National Association of Photoshop Professionals, and other organizations. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned photographer, our club nurtures your passion for photography, while fostering personal and artistic growth.
