Join us TONIGHT - in person - as Ray Sopczuk presents ‘Let's Talk About LIGHT!” There is no need to bring your camera. Ray will talk about studio lighting - how it works and probably some things we may not have known or just need refreshed. He hopes to draw out uses, examples and ideas from the members. Ray says that he will probably offer the possibility in the future to join him in his studio to work with light and with their camera.

This year's speaker will be Mark Mulville at the Twin Cities Camera Club Awards Banquet. Mark worked on staff for The Buffalo News and knows how to tell compelling stories as a freelance photographer. I admire his approach and openness to interpreting each situation with respect for the people and environment that he is photographing. Take a moment and peruse his images below. Then go ahead and register for our banquet dinner. You will go away with renewed energy to celebrate where we live and how to embrace it through your photography. You do not have to be a member to attend. For tickets visit: https://twin-cities-camera-club.square.site/

Be sure to mark your calendar and save the date to attend our first 2025 in-person meeting. Janet Craft will be sharing “WHAT WAS I THINKING & SEEING?: Learning to think and see creatively in photography.” Invite your photography friends!
By way of introduction: Janet has been a member of TCCC since 2017. She is a highly motivated photographer who is not afraid to learn and to stretch her imagination and to see beyond the ordinary when it comes to her photography. Janet will discuss opportunities for creativity in the making of a photograph from the initial planning of a shoot and into the post-processing.
I am sure that you will leave with the seeds of inspiration and new ideas to create your own photographic vision!
