Why join WAPC? If you’re a photographer who wants consistent education, meaningful connections, more exposure for your work, and real savings on gear and services, WAPC & Power of Photography Club in Pensacola delivers all that—and more—across the Emerald Coast.
Why the Pensacola Photography Club | WAPC is worth your membership
Learn from the best: We host 12 in-person educational speaking events each year at our Pensacola Photography Club meeting location—every 2nd Monday of the month—bringing both outstanding local and national photographers who are experts in their fields. These presentations are practical, timely, and geared to help you improve quickly whether you’re hobbyist or pro.
Build a stronger portfolio: Ongoing portfolio-building sessions, portfolio reviews, and professional critique opportunities help you refine your voice and prepare work for contests, shows, and clients.
Real networking, real opportunities: Monthly networking events, coffeehouse editing sessions, walking tours, and media days take place across the Emerald Coast. Local photographers from Panama City Beach to Gulf Shores host small-group activities so you can meet peers and potential collaborators where you live and work.
Exposure through publication and shows: Four quarterly magazines feature members’ images. While submitting images for the quarterly magazine, members can receive Professional Photographers of America (PPA) print-judging critiques—available through our vendor sponsorship of the Power of Photography Program—so your images are picture-perfect for the annual Power of Photography Show in Pensacola.
Member-only “Find a Photographer”: Want referrals, to sell your art, or be featured to the public? Our members-only “Find a Photographer” directory lists members with their specialty fields so customers and galleries can find you easily.
Discounts that add up: Save on specialty items, camera gear, sensor cleaning, equipment maintenance, and more through vendor discounts negotiated for members. You’ll also get discounts to other major photography conventions—both local and national—so continuing education is more affordable.
Continuous online learning: Our website is updated each month with four weekly content pieces—practical topics, step-by-step tips to produce specific images, and weekly photo challenges—so you always have fresh material to keep your skills growing.
