APRIL at the SOUTH JERSEY CAMERA CLUB

Hi Everyone,

78 degrees and sunny? It must be summer. No wait. Is that snow? But there are buds on the trees, spunky daffodils emerging from their underground lair, and the Phillies have taken the field. Spring has definitely sprung… in a very 2026 kind of way. 

Time marches on – regardless of Mother Nature’s tireless efforts to confuse us – and the South Jersey Camera Club is prepared to go with the flow with another month of engaging and enriching programming.

 

Coming up this Month

(Zoom link for all online meetings is at the bottom of the page)

 

Workshop

Saturday, April 4th, 10:00 am - Toyography, Presented by: Martin Kavanagh

We can use our cameras, some simple props, and a bit of ingenuity, to try and recreate those scenes, or even to create scenes from our own imaginative world, to share with friends and family. In the workshop we will learn about some of the tools and props that toy photographers use and then participants can try their hand at their own tabletop creation. Martin will demonstrate a tabletop set up and show what the image looks like after processing.
