carmea clubs in LA or ventura C A LI

[john_kothanek1]

Never fails when someone speaks up and points out typos or other stuff to try and embarass someone they usually make a fool of themselves. Good going. You made my day buddy.

 

CANDICE for the record welcome to this forum it is full of great info and people with lots of good scoop. I am in nor Cal if you ever want to drive up and make a camera club :)

 

Actually I think a camera club is a fantstic idea. Every other hobby I have enjoys a bit of fellowship even the more solitary sports I do.

 

I hope you find one but if you don't go to a coffee shop next to the university and post up a ad stating you'd like to start one. I would also try Craig's list and post something about getting together. Now if you could start up a quilting bee that takes photos you could REALLY annoy you know who. :)

I was searching the internet for cambra clubs for the Venutra Cnty. area and stumbled upon this forum. I am wondering if anything became of the club idea. If so I'd be interested also.<div></div>

I live in Costa Mesa, 45 minutes south of LA. There is a group of 4-5 folks (both Canon and Nikon shooters) here. We shoot at San Joaquin Wildlife Sanctuary and at Bolsa Chica (Corner of Warner and PCH) every weekend. We shoot mostly birds (redtail hawks, kestrels, white tail kites, ospreys, pelicans, herons...).

 

I plan to hit Yosemite this Thursday, Dec 29th for wintery landscape. I have been doing this for the past 2 years. Join me if you want. The weather forecast calls for heavy snow on Wednesday and snow shower on Thursday.

 

Shots taken past 2 years w/ Canon equipment: :=)

One place to check out is the CIPPA (Channel Islands Professional Photographers of America) This group is very

well organized and if I had the time I would continue to go. You can also find other photographers if you post an

ad on local sites in the ventura county section. I met lots of nice people and learned a lot at

CIPPA. My mentor, who's been a professional photographer doing weddings and high school senior portraits, was

part of the group and he recommended me to it. I got to see different styles and even watched some great

competitions which I also learned a lot from. I highly recommend something like this as there are amateur

discounted rates. I will be posting about more professional wedding photography, professional wedding dj, and

professional videographer groups so that all of us professional event services people can have more locals to

network with. If you would like to network with me and you are a florist, cake person, caterer, wedding or event

coordinator let me know as I am also trying to get the word out about my wedding services. You can all visit my

website at:<br> <a href="http://www.WallotDigital.com">http://www.WallotDigital.com</a><br> and or my blog at:

www.1venturacountyprophotographer.wordpress.com for tips and samples of my quality work. Tips and advice to

accomplish the above mentioned goals would also be great so if you have some words, please reply here or post

them on my blog. I hope that helped. Thanks so much in advance!!!!
