Peggy13MemberWe’re fairly new to West Seattle and are interested in joining a photography club. The Seattle Photography Club seems to cover members from a little far afield, with meetings and outings that are often not close. Also, they don’t appear to be that active.

JayDeeParticipantIf there was one, I’d be interested but I use a Prosumer Sony RX-100, not the DLSRs with megazooms and lenses. I just always found myself in the pre-digital world with the wrong lens at the right time. It works for me because I will actually have it with me.

As for a club, perhaps CJ or Machel can chime in…? (or the other photographers)?

KevinParticipantNO reason why we can’t start a “meetup.com” site in West Seattle. I currently belong to two photography Meetup groups – both located in the south end. It would be wonderful to have a group on the peninsula!

Peggy13MemberJayDee, the photo club I belong to in Salem OR has 50-60 members with cameras ranging from iPhones to large DSLRs. Experience ranged from newbies to semi-pros and retired professionals. What I valued most were the opportunities to get out and shoot locally with other photo folks. We also had monthly meetings that were both educational and social.
Kevin, ours in Salem is a meetup group as well. I was really hoping for an already established one here but am willing to help get one started if that’s what’s needed.
There are at least 3 of us somewhat interested; I’m betting there are more. Want to move along with this?

KimberleyParticipantNot exclusively WS, but I know a few of us are or have been members of this over the years: http://www.flickr.com/groups/seattlemeetups/

Peggy13MemberThanks so much for the link, Kimberley. I hadn’t even thought to check on flickr. It looks like a great group with some fun activities.

wrenMemberHi all
I would love to see a photo meet up group start up in West Seattle.
Kevin what are the two meet up groups you belong to?
When and where to they meet. Might it be possible to get a ride with you sometime?

jaydMemberDepending on the when/where details, I’d totally be in.

lazybeardParticipantI’d be interested, I co-lead the Seattle Flickrites. You already found our Flickr Group, our meetup page is http://www.meetup.com/SeattleFlickr/ – We normally do at least 2 events a month, 1 “Brews & Views” and the other is a photo walk somewhere in Seattle typically.
