We usually meet on alternate Wednesdays at Bridport Town Hall. Doors open at 7pm for a 7.30 start but are locked at 7.30 for security reasons, so please aim to arrive in good time.

Workshops, Special Interest & Mentoring Groups
Workshops and Outings
Recent workshops have ranged from practical sessions using vintage lenses or studio lighting to a challenging 2 day course on 'A sense of Place' led by Paul Hill MBE and Maria Falconer FRPS. We want to keep the programme relevant so members' suggestions are always welcome. There may be a charge for some workshops.
We have occasional group outings which may be to local woodland, to a town for street photography or to a local event. Suggestions and volunteers to help are always welcome.
Special Interest Groups
These are a great way for groups of enthusiastic members to focus on a particular area of photography that excites them, getting together online or in person to share their passion. We want to encourage more groups to start up - there are endless possibilities...
The Impressions Group
Explore the potential of seeing the world differently through your camera or smartphone. The Impressions Group uses intentional camera movement, multiple exposure and computer techniques to make impressionistic images that evoke atmosphere or emotion or make intriguing abstracts. Join us and create the world differently.
Mentoring Groups
We meet several times a year to share knowledge and give guidance to those who want to improve their skills and understanding. These sessions offer an opportunity for newer members to have feedback on their work in an informal setting. We are very keen to hear from members what topics they would most like us to cover.
