Discover the Enjoyment of Photography at Caston Camera Club.

Practice some of those artistic skills that have lain dormant all these years.  Take the opportunity to visit interesting places, often not that far away, with people of a like mind and find out how you can improve your perception of the world about you.  Get to appreciate even more the flora, the fauna, the landscapes, the architecture.  Take pleasure from everyday objects seen in a different light.  Be helped by others to see things the way they see them and help others to see things the way you see them. 

Feeling Shy
"I almost didn't join because I really wasn't confident enough but I have to say that I've been made really welcome and get lots of help." This is a statement we regularly hear.

Beginner or Expert
You really do not need to be an expert to be one of us as we welcome members with beginner to intermediate skills who want to improve their photographic ability and who enjoy discussing photographic matters with others who have similar interests.  If you are a beginner, we can arrange for a 'FotoFriend' for you.  Someone of intermediate skills or better that you can call upon to assist you when you need help.  If you're of intermediate skills or better perhaps you would like to be a 'FotoFriend' and help one or two beginners.  That way we all get to know one another and we all get to improve our photographic abilities.

We also run training courses from time to time - see the Training Workshops page.

Join in Our Success

Caston Camera Club, formed in November 2006, is already considered a huge success.  In this short time we have achieved a group of 70 active male and female members who have come together from Caston and the surrounding areas, and there's a reason for this success - we really welcome new members and make a point of introducing them to others in the group so that no-one feels left out.  We all know only too well what it's like to join a group and then find out how 'clicky' they are - well that doesn't happen here!

These days it's all about digital photography and we've embraced this wholeheartedly.  Whether you have a small compact camera or a fully fledged SLR, you'll be welcome here.  You'll learn how to take better photographs and enjoy going places to do it.

Membership Fees
We've set the membership fee at £15 with a £2 attendance fee (includes refreshments and sometimes there may even be some home made cakes) for each indoor meeting but you can come along for an evening for just £2.50 and see what you think. If you like what you see and feel comfortable with the people you meet then provided you join no later than the next meeting, we'll refund your £2.50 against the current year's full membership fee.

Now, reading a web site is one thing but you may like to have a further chat about what we do and how to join.
