🌎✈️ This week, the Sackville Photo Club is taking a trip around the world—and you won't even need a passport!

Join us as club member Peter Steeper shares a spectacular travel photography presentation from one of his many adventures across the globe. Through stunning images and engaging stories, Peter will transport us to fascinating places, introduce us to remarkable people, and showcase the beauty and wonder that can only be found by exploring beyond the familiar.

From breathtaking landscapes to unforgettable moments, this promises to be an evening filled with discovery, inspiration, and perhaps a little wanderlust. Whether you're an avid traveller, an armchair explorer, or simply someone who loves great photography, there's something here for everyone.

Best of all, guests are always welcome! If you've ever been curious about photography, looking to improve your skills, or wondering what our club is all about, this is the perfect opportunity to come out and join us for the evening. Who knows? You may find yourself catching the travel bug—and becoming our newest member.

If you'd like to join us as a guest, please reach out to us at [email protected] and we'll be happy to provide all the details.

No airport security. No delayed flights. No lost luggage. Just great photography, great people, and a chance to see the world through another photographer's lens.

We'd love to see you there!

What turns a portrait into a story?

Join the Sackville Photography Club on Wednesday, May 20th, as we welcome Halifax photographer Dave Reyno for an inspiring evening focused on environmental portrait photography.

With more than 30 years of professional experience, Dave has built a reputation across Atlantic Canada for creating portraits that feel authentic, natural, and deeply human. From commercial studios in Halifax and Moncton to the fast-paced wedding and portrait industry in Toronto, Dave brings a wealth of real-world knowledge, creativity, and storytelling experience to every image he creates.

Environmental portraits go beyond simply photographing a person — they use light, location, atmosphere, and personality to tell a story within a single frame. Whether it’s an athlete in an arena, an artist in their studio, or a musician backstage, these are the kinds of images that connect with people and leave a lasting impression.

Our meetings are always welcoming, relaxed, and open to photographers of all skill levels — whether you shoot with a professional camera, a beginner setup, or just love photography and want to learn more.

But between us? There’s something about a room full of photographers swapping ideas that always sparks creativity.
(And there’s at least a 73% chance someone leaves the meeting researching new gear before they get home.)

📍 Acadia Hall, Sackville
💻 Hybrid option available via Zoom
🗓 Wednesday, May 20, 2026

Guests are always welcome, and if you’ve been curious about joining the club, this would be a fantastic night to come check us out.

Just a quick heads-up that there’s no club meeting this week—yes, I know, try to stay calm. What will you do with all this free time? Talk to your family? Touch grass? Actually organize your Lightroom catalog? The possibilities are endless (and slightly terrifying). Consider this your official night off to recharge—or, let’s be honest, to go out and take “just a few quick shots” that somehow turn into 500.

For our members: submissions are still wide open for this month’s showcase theme, “Capturing Motion”—so whether it’s fast action, slow shutter magic, or that one perfectly timed shot where everything somehow lined up (we’ll call it skill, not luck), we want to see it. Send your entries to [email protected]
by Wednesday, April 29th at 11:59pm. Freeze it, blur it, pan it—just don’t miss the deadline.

📸 Curious about photography? Come check us out!

The Sackville Photo Club is welcoming guests to join us this Wednesday, April 15th at 7:00 PM for a fun and inspiring evening of photography. You can join us in person at Acadia Hall (our favourite way—great conversations, big-screen photos, and a relaxed, friendly vibe), or hop in online via Zoom if you’d rather ease in from home.

🌍 Featured Presentation:
We’re heading to Africa—no passport required. Local photographers Tina and Darrel Nicks will be sharing their incredible journey photographing wildlife in some of the most breathtaking places on Earth. Expect powerful images, unforgettable moments, and stories that might just move “Africa” a little higher up your bucket list.

🔧 Plus: Tech Talk
After the break, Mark Klaamas will be diving into a practical tech talk—perfect if you’ve ever wondered what your camera is really doing (or why it sometimes feels like it has a mind of its own).

Whether you’re brand new to photography, thinking about joining the club, or just looking for a great night out with creative people, this is a perfect meeting to jump in.

Come see what we’re all about—we’d love to meet you!

📸 Adobe Lightroom 101 – Live Online Workshop

Ever opened Lightroom and immediately thought… “Okay, now what?”

We’ve got you.

On Thursday, March 5th, the Sackville Photography Club is hosting a fun and beginner-friendly introduction to editing in Adobe Lightroom — live on Zoom.

This session is designed to help photographers feel more confident inside Lightroom. We’ll walk through:

✨ How Lightroom is organized
✨ What the main editing sliders actually do
✨ How to build a simple, repeatable workflow
✨ A few live photo edits from start to finish

Whether you’re brand new to editing or just want a clearer understanding of how it all fits together, this is a great place to start.

This event is open to current members of the Sackville Photography Club.

If you're already a member and would like to attend, reach out or watch your member communications for details.

📸✨ You’re Invited: Sackville Photography Club – January 21 ✨📸

Whether you’re brand new to photography, dusting off an old camera, or have been shooting for years, you’re warmly invited to join us for our next Sackville Photography Club meeting. If you love great images, good stories, and learning in a relaxed, welcoming space, you’ll fit right in.

This month, we’re excited to welcome Tarek El Wazzi as our guest speaker.

Tarek’s presentation takes us on a visual journey across a wide range of places and landscapes — from the Northern Lights over Iceland, to the white and black deserts of Egypt, the vast openness of Wadi Rum in Jordan, the mountains of Lebanon, and the familiar (but still pretty magical) landscapes of Nova Scotia.

The focus of the talk is night photography and landscapes, but at its heart, it’s really about place, light, and what inspires us to pick up a camera in the first place. It’s less about technical settings and more about slowing down, paying attention, and seeing the world a little differently — especially when the light is low or the moment just feels right.

✨ Expect an evening filled with beautiful images, travel stories, creative inspiration, and a friendly, low-pressure atmosphere. No matter what camera you use — or if you’re still figuring that part out — you’re welcome here.

📬 Thinking about joining us as a guest?
If you’d like to come check out a meeting, please reach out to our favourite membership coordinator at [email protected] They’ll get you sorted and make sure you feel right at home.

We’d love to have you join us — it’s shaping up to be a great night of photography, curiosity, and shared adventure.
