Where Creativity and Photography come alive
Our passion is to capture, create and connect!
For over 70 years, we’ve been a home for photographers on Sydney’s North Shore to connect, share, and grow their passion. Our club was the first club to embrace creativity in photography.
Since 1952, Northside Creative Photography has been a dynamic and welcoming community for image-makers of all levels. A non-profit and run by volunteers, you'll find a supportive and inspiring environment here, whether you’re a novice or experienced pro.
Creativity without limits
We embrace all photographic styles and mediums, from classic landscapes to experimental abstracts and videography.
Learning and Growth
We provide education, guidance, and mentoring to help you develop your skills and find your unique voice.
Community and connection
We foster a relaxed and informal environment where you can connect with fellow photographers, share ideas, and build lasting friendships.
Our Activities
Meetings
Meeting are held every first and third Wednesday of the month at Lindfield. We invite expert photographers to present their work and impart valuable guidance to the club members. We also have monthly competitions where members get feedback on their images.
Outings
We have a regular program of outings in and around Sydney, and we go away for long weekends twice each year. These events provide opportunities for members to get to know each other and to visit locations that provide photographic opportunities. For information about this year’s outings, click here.
Portfolio
Every two years club members embark on developing a powerful personal portfolio under the mentorship of a senior club member. Member portfolios are publicly exhibited in November. Visit our portfolio gallery.
Special Interest Groups
Lighting
The NCP Lighting Special Interest group has two objectives. Firstly, to introduce members to lighting techniques and situations that they have not seen before, and secondly to refine our techniques and improve our image making. (More ..)
Photoshop
The Photoshop group is focused on learning the various intricacies and features of Photoshop, experiment and learn from each other. From time to time experts share their techniques and tips with the group.
Audio - visual
With the guidance of our mentor, award-winning AV creator Alia Naughton, we explore the magic that happens when images, music, and story combine. A set of photographs suddenly becomes an emotional journey — one that can make you smile, laugh, or even shed a tear. Visit AV Gallery
