SUMMARY:SPC Meeting October 7th 2026
DESCRIPTION:Ready to put a little more personality into your portraits? \nJoin us for our next SPC general meeting as we welcome Michelle Coleman\, who will be talking with us about the wonderful world of portrait photography. Whether you love photographing people\, avoid portraits like the plague\, or find yourself saying “I’ll just take one quick photo” and then taking 37… there’s something here for you! \nMichelle will share her experience\, ideas\, and approach to creating engaging portraits\, with plenty of inspiration to help you see your subjects a little differently. Come along\, bring your questions\, and be prepared to pick up a few ideas you can try the next time someone reluctantly agrees to stand in front of your camera. \nAs always\, this is an opportunity to learn something new\, hang out with fellow photographers\, and have a few laughs along the way. No fancy camera required\, and no posing experience necessary. \nThis meeting is open to members of the Sackville Photography Club. If you’re not a member but would like to join us as a guest and see what we’re all about\, we’d love to have you! Just email membership@sackvillephotoclub.com and ask about being our guest for the evening. \nCome for the portraits\, stay for the photography conversation… and maybe leave with a few new ideas for making people look good in front of your lens!

SUMMARY:Lightroom 101
DESCRIPTION:Think Lightroom is complicated? Let’s fix that. \nJoin SPC President Shawn Wyrozub for a fun\, relaxed virtual mentoring session designed specifically for photographers who are new to Adobe Lightroom Classic—or who have opened it\, stared at it for five minutes\, and wondered\, “Okay… now what?” \nIn Lightroom 101\, Shawn will walk you through the basics of Lightroom Classic from the ground up. We’ll start with getting Lightroom set up properly\, then work our way through importing and organizing your photos\, the basics of editing\, and finally exporting your finished images. \nWe’ll cover things like: \n\nSetting up Lightroom Classic\nUnderstanding the Lightroom interface without needing a map\nImporting and organizing your photographs\nThe basics of Lightroom’s editing tools\nExposure\, contrast\, colour and other essential adjustments\nCropping and straightening\nMaking your photos look better without making them look weird\nExporting your finished images for sharing\, printing and more\n\nThis isn’t about turning you into a Lightroom wizard overnight. It’s about helping you understand what the tools do\, why you might use them\, and how to build a simple editing workflow that works for you. \nThere will be plenty of room for questions\, so bring your Lightroom questions\, your curiosity\, and maybe a photograph or two that you’ve been fighting with. Shawn promises not to judge your editing choices… much. \nAnd remember: there are no stupid questions. If Lightroom has you confused\, chances are someone else is wondering the exact same thing. \nSo grab your computer\, fire up Lightroom\, and let’s get those sliders moving in the right direction. \nThis virtual mentoring session is open to current members of the Sackville Photography Club.

SUMMARY:SPC Meeting October 21st 2026
DESCRIPTION:Who says you need a big camera and a bag full of lenses to make great photographs? Sometimes\, the best camera is the one flying through the air… or the one sitting in your pocket! \nFor our next SPC general meeting\, our very own Vice President\, Mark Klaamas\, will be taking us on a look at photography with drones and camera phones. Mark will share his experience and ideas for getting creative with two tools that have become surprisingly capable photography platforms. \nWhether you’re already a drone photographer\, someone who pulls out their phone whenever the moment presents itself\, or you’re just curious about what these little cameras can actually do\, this should be a fun and informative evening. We’ll look at different ways to approach photography from a new perspective — quite literally in the case of drones! \nSo come out\, bring your questions\, share your own experiences\, and maybe discover that you don’t always need to carry a camera bag the size of a small suitcase to make a great image. \nThis meeting is open to members of the Sackville Photography Club. If you’re not a member but would like to join us as a guest and see what we’re all about\, we’d love to have you! Just email membership@sackvillephotoclub.com and ask about being our guest for the evening. \nCome for the drones\, stay for the smartphone photography… and leave with a few new ways to get your camera off the ground!

SUMMARY:Lens & Learn — A Friendly Photo Critique Session
DESCRIPTION:Ever wonder what someone else sees when they look at your photograph? \nLens & Learn is a relaxed\, friendly\, and educational virtual session where we come together to look at photographs\, share ideas\, and learn from one another. \nSPC members can submit jpeg images ahead of the session.  During the session\, we’ll look at the images together and offer friendly\, constructive feedback designed to help us understand what works\, what might be improved\, and why. \nThere are no bad photographs and no wrong answers. Photography is subjective\, and the goal isn’t to judge the photographer or tell someone that their photograph is “wrong.” Instead\, we’ll explore different ways of seeing an image\, discuss creative choices\, and share suggestions that may help you approach your next photograph differently. \nSubmissions will be presented anonymously\, so the focus stays on the photograph rather than who took it. \nWhether you’re picking up a camera for the first time or you’ve been photographing for decades\, Lens & Learn is for everyone. You don’t need to be an expert\, and you don’t need to have a “perfect” photograph to participate. \nCome ready to share\, learn\, ask questions\, and—most importantly—help each other grow as photographers. \nSubmit your images to: mentoring@sackvillephotoclub.com \nLens & Learn is a members-only SPC program\, available to current Sackville Photography Club members. This helps us create a comfortable space where members can share their work\, ask questions\, and learn from one another in a familiar and supportive environment. If you’re not currently a member but would like to take part\, we’d love to have you join the club and become part of the SPC community!
