From the President

Welcome to the Teaneck Camera Club website.

This is the place to discover what our club is about and all we have to offer.

TCC members represent all levels of photographic skills, from novice, to serious amateur, to professional. We range in age from pre-teen to senior citizen, yet we all share a passion for photography and inspire each other in our pursuits. We welcome visitors and prospective members to visit during our meetings on Tuesdays at 8 p.m. September through June at the Rodda Center in Teaneck. Our meetings vary in subject from week to week and include:

Programs and Workshops — Whatever your level of knowledge, our programs and workshops are bound to take your photography and post-processing skills to new levels. Many of our guest speakers are professional photographers, well known in the photographic community for their specialties, such as sports, nature or street photography. Many of our workshops provide hands-on opportunities for club members to learn how to enhance their images using Lightroom, PhotoShop and various plug-ins.

Studio Nights — With professional studio lighting and backdrops, Studio Nights give members access to live character models in a controlled setting. In the past, we have had professional clowns, Revolutionary and Civil War re-enactors, in addition to ballroom and hip hop dancers.

Competitions — Monthly competitions are excellent learning experiences even if you choose not to compete. A guest judge scores each image commenting on the technical and aesthetic aspects of the entry. Members compete in three groups – Beginners, Advanced and Salon. There are competitions for color and black and white prints and digital competitions for nature and pictorial images, which are displayed with a digital projector. Be sure to click on the Competitions tab to familiarize yourself with the rules before you compete.

Field Trips — Approximately once a month, we have field trips to local photographic locations. Joining in on the field trips is a great way to get to know other club members, to learn and share in-the-field shooting methods with other photographers, and just have fun!

Please see our Calendar for upcoming events, view the slideshow on the home page for award winning images, and see our Gallery for samples of club members’ photos from past field trips and special events.

Whatever your photographic interest or skill level, Teaneck Camera Club offers you the opportunity to learn how to improve your photos, to share your images, and to meet other like-minded individuals. So feel free to come visit, attend a meeting, and join the fun!
