We’re almost there! This Thursday marks the beginning of our 2025/2026 season at Otley Camera Club, and we couldn’t be more excited to get started.

Over the coming months, we have a packed programme of events designed for photographers of all levels. Whether you’re just starting out or have years of experience behind the lens, there’s something for everyone.

Opening Night – Thursday

Join us for the beginning of our highly anticipated 2025/2026 season! To celebrate, we’ll be sharing a taste of what’s to come in our fantastic lineup of talks, workshops, and competitions. And of course, no opening night would be complete without something a little special: enjoy a slice of cake while our members share three photos from their summer. These could be standout shots they’re especially proud of, images that didn’t quite work out, or simply snapshots of what they’ve been up to over the break. It’s always a fun, relaxed way to start the year, and a great opportunity to get to know everyone.

What’s on the programme this season?

Inspirational speakers sharing their images, stories, and expertise
Practical sessions where you can get hands-on with your camera
Tutorials and workshops to help you grow your skills
Competitions to challenge and inspire you
Social evenings where you can relax, chat, and connect with fellow photographers

Why join?

Photography can sometimes feel like a solitary hobby, but being part of a club opens up a whole new world of inspiration and community. At Otley Camera Club, you’ll find people who are just as enthusiastic about photography as you are — and always ready to share ideas, tips, and encouragement.

Everyone is welcome

You don’t need to be an expert to get involved. We welcome photographers of all abilities, from beginners with a smartphone to seasoned professionals with a full kit bag. If you’re curious about photography, this is the perfect time to come along and see what we’re all about.
