Marlborough Camera Club

Welcome to Marlborough Camera Club

Nestled in the heart of New Zealand’s photography scene, the Marlborough Camera Club is a passionate community dedicated to the art and craft of capturing moments. As a proud affiliate of the Photographic Society of New Zealand (PSNZ), we provide a welcoming space for both amateur and professional photographers to grow, learn, and share their love for imagery. Our club thrives on creativity, hosting monthly meetings from February to November where members engage in a variety of exciting activities. Whether you’re just starting out or you’re a seasoned shutterbug, there’s a place for you in our dynamic group.

Our Marlborough Roots

Conveniently located in Blenheim Central, our club serves as a creative focal point in the Marlborough region. Known for its stunning landscapes and vibrant community, Marlborough offers endless inspiration for photographers, from rolling vineyards to rugged coastlines. Our base in Blenheim Central makes us accessible to locals and visitors alike, fostering a tight-knit network of photography enthusiasts. Being part of this scenic region enhances our work, as we often draw from the natural beauty surrounding us to fuel our themed competitions and outdoor shoots.

What We Offer

At Marlborough Camera Club, there’s always something to inspire. Each month, excluding December and January, we gather to explore new techniques through hands-on workshops that cover everything from basic camera skills to advanced editing. Members are encouraged to submit images based on monthly themes, which are then judged, providing valuable feedback and friendly competition. We also participate in regional challenges, giving you the chance to showcase your talent on a broader stage. Joining our club means becoming part of a supportive community that celebrates every click of the shutter.
