Testimonial from a new member:

"This past Autumn, in my search to expand my photography hobby, I joined the Lakewood Ranch Digital Photography Club. I cannot express enough how impressed I am with the Club. It exemplifies love and passion for the art.  My motivating factor to join was to find opportunities for learning and improvement.  The club goes above and beyond my expectations. The monthly meetings are always intriguing with top-notch speakers and presentations.  The outings are well planned out with interesting subject matter. 

"Most important, the educational classes far exceed anything I have attended previously.  The other members were beyond gracious and so welcoming, particularly when it was time for an interactive group activity. While there is friendly competition - there are no egos - everyone is here to share their personal knowledge and experience to help each other grow.  The Club continues to spur on a simple mission - to take more photos while learning to love the craft more, exploring and expanding your photography skills."

Testimonial about one of our hands-on training classes:

"Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. It was a very inspiring two hours! I appreciate the well thought out "time/space" allowance for the group, which allowed all of us to both make mistakes, learn and get some first shots. What a great creative infusion….Thank you again."
