Our next meeting will be Thursday, Dec. 11, at 7:30 pm. This will be a
workshop meeting. Kent Messamore will give a presentation about "What's New in Photoshop CS4."
Everybody is invited to bring pictures to this week's meeting, to
show them and get comments. Also bring your questions about
photographic art or technology, or any other topics you'd like to
discuss with your fellow club members.
Looking forward, please note that our next meeting will be on the third
Thursday of the month, December 18, because the fourth Thursday will be Christmas. We're planning a RiversEdge Holiday Open House for photographers and models. Refreshments will be available and we'll be welcoming nonmembers as well as members.
Prospective members: you're invited to come meet us, see the studio, and learn more about what we do. |

We are an active photography club that believes in learning by doing. The CoverShot Photography Studio, where we meet, is a truly special resource that we use to get lots of first-hand experience actually taking pictures in a studio setting. See the next news item for more information about our mission.
Our regular meetings take place on the second and fourth Thursday evenings of every month. The meeting on the fourth Thursday is a photo shoot with models in the CoverShot studio. The meeting on the second Thursday is a workshop where club members can learn and compare notes. Each workshop meeting includes a program for learning about photography or photographic technology, or preparing for an upcoming shoot. Members are also encouraged to bring their pictures or questions, for comments and suggestions by other members. Members also have the opportunity to use the studio facilities during a workshop meeting for a $20 studio fee.
In addition to these regular activities, periodically the club organizes special photography outings or events that members can participate in for an extra fee.

The RiversEdge Photographic Society is a photography club located in New England, within the state of Massachusetts, specializing in but not exclusively limited to, studio photography. We meet twice monthly at the CoverShot Photography Studio, in Lawrence, Massachusetts. The club provides a creative community for digital and film photographers, with a special focus and support for photographers interested in expanding the art and science of people photography—portrait, glamour and fashion photography, studio lighting and related subjects. One thing that has been noticed is that at many clubs, the focus is on nature photography. It seemed that the people who did “people photography” were often overlooked in competition and recognition. As people found out about the CoverShot Photography Studio, they asked about the idea of a club. Needless to say, the idea was greeted with many positive words of encouragement. Our mission is to “create a community of photographers who continuously learn, improve their skills, and explore the art of photographing people in a supportive environment.” For more information or to join please contact: RiversEdge |
