Exhibit Update
Exhibit Update - IMPORTANT
The take down of the RiverWinds exhibit is Monday 12/30 from 5 PM to 7 PM. All images must be picked up at this time. There is no capability of storage. If you cannot make this time, it is your responsibility to arrange having someone else get you images.
What are you going to do with the images you pick up?
Well, we have the SJCC Members Exhibit at Medford Leas!
Every year our club has the opportunity to display our work in the Medford Leas hallway just outside of the auditorium. This is not a juried competition or acceptance of work. Just an easy & fun display of your work and the opportunity to sell it. Every club member is invited to participate and provide up to 3 images for display. Based upon the total number of submissions and the wall space, we will do our best to hang every piece. The display will be from January 4th to February 1st.
Intake: Saturday January 4th at Medford Leas. We have our workshop that morning from 10-12 so you can bring the pictures with you if you are attending the workshop. If you are not attending, you can drop them off from 9AM to 10AM or from 12PM to 1PM.
There is no theme, just that the images must be family friendly. All images must be framed or mounted and wired for hanging.
The club will prepare tags for each image.
Please send email with the following detail prior January 4th:

Updated Guidelines for Challenge Image Submission
We have further clarified the important details of image size & file size for submitting your monthly digital Challenge images. Link: Preparing Images for Challenges
November Challenge Images Uploaded
Arik Gorban was our onsite judge for the challenge and provided valuable critiques on everyone's images.
What happens next with the Challenge images? All the submitted images have been uploaded into a gallery. There is a link under the "Galleries" menu called "Current Month Challenge Images". This link will take you directly into the gallery with the most recent months images. Gallery images of the season's previous galleries can be found by going to the "Galleries List" menu. Images that are given awards by the judge, will be home page slide show.
Welcome to the 2024-25 SJCC Season!
If you are like me, you must be asking “where did summer go”. Vacations, quality time with family & friends, home projects and hopefully some photography.
The board has also been busy teeing up a robust & exciting line up of workshops, presentations, field trips and a few surprises. Oh, we also launched a completely new system that now encompasses the club's website, membership, challenges, calendar & all events. Hopefully, you were able to attend one of the Zoom training sessions or watched the recording.
One of the critical goals of the new system & website is having everything the club members need in one location with one login to provide a better experience while being user friendly. Delivering accurate & timely information has always been important and this will support the club moving forward. The old saying of "crawling before you walk", is very true for all of us when learning a new system and we will walk together this season.
Moving forward, you will notice an overall theme of “go to the website to learn more, register or how-to” with numerous links. You can now manage/view all aspects of your membership by selecting "My Account" from the website menu when logged in.

Who We Are
Founded in 1976, the South Jersey Camera Club (SJCC) was organized to promote the art and science of photography. Among its goals is the desire to unite others in sharing similar interests, to exchange ideas and photographic expertise, and to enhance the skills of club members. Our members come from all across the tri-state area, especially southern New Jersey & Philadelphia.
Dedicated To Better Photography
Outstanding speakers present interesting and informative programs. Field trips and workshops provide practical photographic experience. Themed and open challenges and bonus contests throughout the season encourage members to explore new techniques and subjects.
Multiple events/meetings are held throughout each month during our club season of September through June. Our in person Challenge meetings are held at the Medford Leas Community Center Auditorium, One Medford Leas Way, Medford, NJ 08055.
Programs are planned to interest photographers from beginners to skilled artisans. Guests and prospective members are always welcome.
The South Jersey Camera Club is a registered 501(c)(3) tax-exempt, not for profit organization. Donations or endowments are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
