Photography is our passion

We are a community of learners who delight in the company of others who share our passion and who work toward common goals:

to share our work

to learn from others

to teach what we know

to discuss the art and the craft of photography

to evaluate our work

to see, to think, to feel, and to create

to continuously improve our photography

We meet the first Monday of each month at 6:30 p.m.

1st Presbyterian Church

Corner of Belle Street & Cherry Street

Sevierville, TN 37862

Our meetings consist of three levels of competition (with helpful, positive critiques) with ribbons awarded for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place in Beginners, Advanced, and Star Categories. We also have a competition for a special Assignment, different each month. See the News and Events page for monthly assignments and photos of current competition winners.

We have a different program each month -- guaranteed to be of interest! At the end of the meeting, those in attendance have a chance to talk and to discuss photographic topics of interest. We have members using "Point and Shoot" cameras up to the latest in Digital SLR.

We hope to see you there!

Visitors are ALWAYS Welcome!
