The Sydney 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.
The minimum age requirement is 10 years old; children under 14 need to be accompanied by an adult, who will need to make a separate booking. General attendance costs $35, but may occasionally be higher if a model, studio hire or special equipment is required.
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 Photoh Facebook wall and in the Sydney Photography Facebook Group and enter our fortnightly themed competitions to have chances to win great photography prizes.

It was my first one and I have no idea what I am doing... so I can't wait to do the beginners and read more in understanding it all.
I needed to leave so didn't get to finish going around. But I really enjoyed it.

I liked having the tips at the beginning from Zara and hints of where to take shots. Her review of my images half way through helped as well. People in the group were friendly and helpful

Great day, great location, great group of people. Zara and Scott are so helpful - no question too much for them. Love the informal nature of this group, if you want to wander around by yourself you can, if you want to stay with Zara and Scott you can.

As always, I love the way this group works - a great way to meet up socially with photographers of varying expertise but with the bonus of having 2 professional photographers (Zara & Scott are great) on hand to provide guidance, challenges and advice.
