Photography Group

Wickenburg Photography Group

You don’t have to be an “expert photographer” to be welcomed as a member of the Photography Group. All you need is an interest in photography: digital, film or a cell phone camera. Our aim is to encourage you to develop current and new interests and skills as well as to provide a place to meet friendly people who share your interest.

Education, hands-on learning opportunities, gallery exhibits, your photos exhibited in public places, field trips, speakers and demos are just some of the benefits of a Photography Group membership.

We meet on the first Monday of the month from October to May, 4 to 6 PM, at WAC. We have speakers, workshops and photo outings throughout the season. If you would like to share your photos at the meeting, submit them to Mark Harmon at mharmonphoto@gmail.com at least 3 days prior to the meeting. Critiques are optional; we just like to see what everyone is working on.

Administrative fees are $25 per individual or $40 per couple for the season. These fees cover our speaker costs, art show receptions and awards, plus administrative expenses.

This group is open to all Wickenburg Art Club members. Not a member yet? Join the Wickenburg Art Club to take part.

2026/2027 Photography Themes

Please check back soon for this season’s themes.

Creativity rocks! In order to spur our creativity, focus our attention, and push ourselves to look at something a different way, we will have themes to work on during the season. This is not mandatory, but simply something fun to work toward and share during our monthly meetings.

In the spirit of the theme, limit this to photos that have been taken over the last year. The whole idea is to practice, get out there (or stay in there), exercise your eye and talents, grow as an artist, and take new photos.

While we love to see photos from the theme, share any photos you like – whatever you are working on that is lighting your fire! However, please limit the total number of photos you share to 5 or fewer. That should give us more time to really view, chew, discuss artistic and technical aspects, and offer constructive ideas if so desired.

Please email your monthly theme photos to Mark Harmon at mharmonphoto@gmail.com no later than 3 days before the monthly meeting so that he can put together the monthly photo presentation. You may include title, location and camera settings if you wish.
