You see what you think, you see what you feel, you are what you see If with the camera you can make others see it – that is photography.

Our Ethos

The photo club is rooted in curiosity, inclusivity, and respect for diverse ideas, pushing us to constantly grow as photographers and storytellers.Thriving on a shared passion for photography as an art form and a means of expression. We believe in fostering creativity, learning, and collaboration in a supportive environment.

Let your curiosity get the better of you

I’d like to blur the fixed boundaries that we humans, in our self-certainty, tend to draw around everything within our reach ~ HANNAH HÖCH – 1889-1978

Learn about photographic equipment

Not all cameras are created equal. Whether buying an old 35mm film camera, an iPhone, perhaps a Polaroid camera, or even a medium-format 150-megapixel piece of masterful engineering, learn why you’re choosing your camera.

Learn to look and appreciate your surroundings

We all would love to travel to wonderful places to take photographs worthy of a magazine spread when, in actual fact, so much can be found on your doorstep. Vienna is full of potential projects, so learn how to tune into your surroundings and create visual stories.

Picking your moment, timing is everything

Whatever genre of photography you follow or wish to pursue, there is that feeling or a moment when you know you have that image you have inspired yourself to capture and learn what that is. As Henri Cartier-Bresson quoted The Decisive Moment.

Anticipate what you visualise.
