*Themes are provided in advance for your planning purposes. One of our goals as a photo club is to help photographers grow in their skills. By knowing the genres of upcoming competitions, while you are out traveling or out photographing events, places, etc., you will have this schedule and can use it as inspiration/ideas for photos you take, knowing they could be saved for future competitions. This schedule will also give you time to investigate more about these genres. In competitions starting in the 2026-2027 year, photos will be accepted that have been taken within the past three years.
To see all the upcoming events, see the calendar. To learn more about an event on the calendar, click on the icon/photo. The activists listed below are just some of the many upcoming events for Loudoun Photo Club.
NOTE: Zoom links will NOT be provided on this page or on the Facebook page. Zoom links will be sent to the email addresses of the members in good standing (dues paid up) the day before the event.
Visitors are very welcome to join up to two of our meetings to see if you think our club is one you’d like to join. Just send an email here requesting to join us. Please send between 24-48 hours in advance!

But one of our very active club members, Doug Mattice, has produced some videos that should be of great help. Click here to view those videos:
