About Us

History

The Hershey Camera Club was organized by a few local amateur photographers who wanted to share their love for the art of photography. We now have both amateur photographers who come to learn, and professional photographers who share their knowledge and expertise with other members.

Community Oriented

The Hershey Camera Club is available for photographic opportunities in the Hershey and surrounding communities. We have participated in Pet Photo Day at the Commerce Bank in Palmyra, at the Hope Lodge in Hershey to photograph the reunion of cancer survivors, and the Hershey Gardens to name a few. A model shoot is held annually in January to help members with studio work and also to help local models learn posing techniques. We welcome any photographic opportunity to support our community and to enhance our skills.

Special Events and Trips

In addition to scheduled meetings, members travel to places of photographic interest, learn about macro photography, night shooting, photographing water, modeling, etc. We have a variety of members specializing in area such as macro or night photography, travel or nature photography, and they will offer special workshops on those subjects. We also participate in slide exchange programs with other clubs from around the world.
