Message from our Vice President

Welcome to Preston Photographic Society website.  It is a privilege to introduce you to a society that has brought together photographers in Preston for well over a century.   Our website showcases the great work of many of our members and provides information about our club and what we offer.  In addition, there are resources which lots of people may find useful.
 
The club provides an opportunity for photographers of any level to join together and develop their skills through an eclectic mix of talks, competitions, exhibitions, members workshops, photowalks and general social activity.  We have a diverse and inclusive membership and anyone looking to join our club, either as a total beginner or someone with an established level of skill, will be made to feel more than welcome.

In these unprecedented times and the restrictions of Covid-19, we are operating on a limited syllabus on a ‘virtual’ basis but we do hope to be back up and running normally as soon as possible.  We are open to new members at any time and anyone wishing to know more is welcome to make contact through this site.  We also have a presence on social media (Facebook and Twitter).
 
Thank you for taking time to explore our site and hopefully you will consider coming along and finding out more about us.

Vice President & Treasurer

When I first joined PPS I was rather nervous as I was so unsure what I was getting involved in. However, I shouldn't have worried as once I joined and realised that the club has many photographers at different stages of there development with everyone being so helpful it was made very easy for me and I was made very welcome.  The people are very friendly and always willing to pass on any advice. My moto -"Never be afraid to ask", if they don't know the answer they will point you in the right direction. My photography has come on leaps and bounds since joining.

I have been a member of Preston Photographic Society since Sept 2016 and can say that I have enjoyed being part of such a happy and vibrant club, being made to feel welcome from day one. The weekly meetings are always entertaining with a variety of speakers and competitions run throughout the season. Although the clubs aim is to help people improve their photography by example and guidance, above all it is about having fun while learning. The photo walks and critique evenings have been of great benefit to me where help has always been freely given.

 In September 2015 a notice was shared on my Facebook page. “Opening night of our new season” by Preston Photographic Society. I decided go & I was met at the door and introduced to quite a few members all of whom welcomed me, none of this sitting in a corner feeling out of place. I can honestly say I thoroughly enjoyed myself; the club is very friendly with everyone willing to go that extra mile to help each other.  
I would highly recommend everyone to come along a give it a go. The first few sessions are free, so what have you to lose? If you don’t fancy joining the club watch out for the Summer Photo walks posted on the Facebook page as they are open to non-members.
