In Focus
Meetups – Annual Membership

Join our Aperture Club photography community for our monthly In-Focus Meetups.

In Focus Meetups – Annual Membership

When: First Wednesday of every month. Please note the first meeting for 2026 will be held Wed 28 Jan.

The In Focus Group is a sister offshoot of our In Focus Collective currently held on the first Monday of each month  but  is at  full capacity.  Both groups will get the opportunity throughout the year to engage with each other.

Full membership entitles you to discounts on workshops and participation in extra events we put on for the groups.

Fee: $385 Yearly Membership or $44 / month  – Please note the yearly membership fee applies only for the year regardless of when joined. If you are thinking of joining in from September then we suggest you purchase the monthly fee until renewal is due again in February.

BOOK to reserve your place   – Our 3 hr + evening is a  continuous learning  opportunity plus you also  have the opportunity to socialise with peers. This meeting is held at The Royal Hotel in Leichhardt  in a private room upstairs or  at Boomalli Aboriginal Art Gallery.

Come along and be inspired! We are excited to meet you and assist with your photography journey.

We have a line up of passionate and wonderful experts ready to share their in-depth knowledge on a variety of photography topics and to share their infectious enthusiasm.

Each month we introduce a Photo Assignment centred around a compositional or technical topic that is presented in the second half of the evening. We also have other gatherings on certain topics during the year when applicable.

  • Attendees’ photos will then be critiqued the following meet-up.
  • The critique nights are valuable learning opportunities.
  • Come along and check out for yourself what it’s all about.

You can pay $44 per meeting and if you like it, join and become an club member for $385 per year.

This covers the monthly meetings plus gives you membership discounts off selected special events and some workshops run by The Aperture Club.
