Before we are photographers, WE ARE OBSERVERS!

Community Photo Events

Our community photo events are free to attend. This is where you will build your network of photographers. Creativity is the practice of imagination and intuition which is easier when you have a circle of photographers to share ideas with, learn from and be mentored by.

We have two events you can join and meet our community. 

PhotoWalks – Join us and experience the fun, creativity and social interaction of a PhotoChallenge as we wander around Circular Quay and ‘The Rocks’. Held every second week, alternating between Tuesday and Thursday evenings at 6pm. Only $7 for 1.5 hours. 

Foundation Workshops

“Learn photography by doing photography”
– Shane Rozario

Creativity is built on strong foundations. As a photographer, understanding the basics of creative thinking together with mastering technical skills, is the balance required to advance your expertise from a passionate photographer to a creative photographer.

All our Foundation Workshops are designed to help you grow by practical hands-on experience in composition, manual exposure and editing.

Creative Workshops

“Developing the mindset of a creative photographer is a broad brush and not limited to a particular genre.” 
– Shane Rozario

Once you have the foundations under control there are multiple disciplines in each genre of photography. Experiencing photo genres outside of your own interests is very beneficial in acquiring skills which you can adapt to how you photograph your own projects.

This stage of your journey is all about helping you to express yourself visually. We use three platforms to help you showcase your work; we curate Group shows, Annual publications and program PhotoTalks.

Everyone with a passionate interest especially creative photographers, desire to share their work with others. We understand this need and can help you achieve this goal.

We have the support of our industry partners, Photo King who prints your work and Emergent Designs who frames your prints.

We believe, the reward in pursuing creative photography is realised by sharing your work. It allows you to share your experience of the world you live in, with the people and the community in your life.

Your creative journey has just become interesting.
