What’s happening at HPS

We meet at least twice a month to share ideas on the art and science of photography. The first meeting of each month is devoted to a Program where an invited speaker discusses a specific area of photography. The second meeting is devoted entirely to a competition, with entries in four categories (color and monochrome, in digital or print). In addition, the society holds activities to meet up and share photographic techniques. It’s a great time for mentoring, tutoring, and some social time together.

HPS is on Meetup. Anyone with the love of photography and a desire to shoot more is welcome here. We want to meet other local photographers, share our work and learning from each other. More info here.
