Photo Clubs in South Wales

stevednp3 · 4 Jan 2012

Hi Everyone, im hoping to join a club this year, can anyone recommend a photo or camera club in the South Wales area.

I like to practice portrait photography and not sure if there are any around that do practical evenings based around this ?

Thanks in advance - Steve

Steve,

not a club, but we do have a facebook support group for photographers across South Wales.

We're not a club per se but keep an eye out for the Loonies meets! We do landscapes around South and Mid-Wales.

I go to the Gwent Photographic club just outside Newport in Rogerstone on thursday evenings. http://gwentphotographic.co.uk/ and welcome to TP.

You can find our meets in the conveniently named "Meeting Place" forum on this very website! We aim for every 6-8 weeks.
