Grow Your Photography, Find Your Community

Photography is even more rewarding when you have people to share it with. Joining a camera club in the Wisconsin Area Camera Clubs Organization (WACCO) connects you with fellow photographers who understand the excitement of capturing a special moment—and the challenges of getting it just right

Your connection to WACCO begins with joining a member club. WACCO is an organization of camera clubs, so to belong to WACCO, you need to join an affiliated club in order to participate in WACCO activities. Whether you are learning the basics or have years of experience, a camera club offers opportunities to ask questions, exchange ideas, share your images, and discover new ways of seeing. Meetings, outings, and educational activities can help you build confidence, explore different subjects, and find fresh motivation to pick up your camera.

The WACCO connection adds value beyond your local club. Through its network of clubs, WACCO brings photographers together for education, workshops, and opportunities to connect with a wider photographic community. Members in good standing of affiliated clubs can also enter WACCO competitions, offering another way to challenge themselves and share their work. Perhaps the most lasting benefit is the friendships you build along the way. A shared interest in photography can turn a club meeting into an exchange of ideas, an outing into a memorable experience, and a personal hobby into a community connection.

Come for the photography. Stay for the friendships, inspiration, and opportunities to grow.
