The Perth Photography Group is a regular, fortnightly social gathering for people who share a passion for photography and want to practise their skills. It gives you the chance to meet up with other photographers, trade tips and build friendships.
Each two hour class will focus on one theme or particular aspect of photography, in a different location each fortnight. A professional photographer will also be there to help answer questions and offer advice on the day. Groups larger than 12 will have multiple instructors.
Please note that this event is a social meet up (not a formal class) and is best suited to photographers who want the opportunity to explore different photography topics every fortnight and know how to use their cameras on manual mode (not total beginners). If you are after a more structured educational experience, Photoh also offers a Photography for Beginners course that is conducted in a smaller group, so you have more opportunity to interact with your instructor one-on-one.
A DSLR camera, or a camera with manual controls is preferable, but you are welcome to bring bring any kind of camera or smartphone. There will be a substantial amount of walking involved on the day, so please wear comfortable shoes and bring an umbrella should the weather call for it.
Your experience doesn’t stop once the class ends - you can also share your photos with your peers on the Facebook page, or in the Perth Photography Facebook Group and enter our fortnightly themed competitions to have chances to win great photography prizes.

It was great. The Ellis Brook Valley reserve was a wonder destination for a photography session. Anna-Mair was very helpful in providing help to get the best possible photos and use of camera options for a beginner like me. Thank you.

The photography morning at the Armidale Wildlife rescue park was wonderful. This was my first event with Photoh Perth and the group of people were all very friendly. Anna was very helpful in providing photography advice. It was a fun event. Will definitely do more.

Had a good time. It got me out and about to take photos. I think Anna-Mair explained things well for people who did not yet have much knowledge about Manual Mode.

Had a great time at the Motion Blur session at Belmont Racecourse. Fantastic opportunity to capture the horses racing, and also see them in the stalls. As an added bonus we were taking to the starting gates for the commencement of one of the races....that was such a treat. Very enjoyable and informative session.

Anna-Mair provides the group with comprehensive instructions and helpful tips to make the most of our photographic opportunities. After having been to a few of the group meet-ups, I am becoming more confident in my setting selections and composition. Great, fun, nice people in the group, and it's always nice to be outdoors exploring.
