You are welcome to join us - just turn up and we'll take it from there!

We are proud to have received a grant from Sherborne Town Council towards the cost of our digital projector. Thank you!

About Us

Sherborne Bradford Abbas Camera Club is a small club of photographers whose members live in and around Sherborne and Bradford Abbas, Dorset, in the beautiful English West Country. We are people who enjoy looking for, seeing and taking photographs, and discussing them.

Some of us specialize; some take all sorts; some take only digital; some take film; some take both.

We meet at 8:00 – 10:00pm in Bradford Abbas Village Hall (opposite the Church) on the second and fourth Tuesdays in each month (except June, July and August, but we usually put on an exhibition in one of these months).

There is ample parking at the village hall.

We welcome new members. The annual subscription is £15 and we pay £1 each meeting to cover coffee/tea/biscuits.  If you would like to join us, simply turn up to one of our meetings and we’ll happily introduce ourselves or please contact us here and we’ll provide you with more information.

    Dear Sir / Madam,

    My name is David Clapp and I am a professional photographer based in South West England. I mainly specialise in landscape and travel photography, and I am also a photo journalist writing for magazines such as Practical Photography, Amateur Photographer and Digital Photographer.

    I frequently give talks to camera clubs and wondered if your group would be interested in hosting me as a guest speaker. I have covered topics such as landscape photography (this can be tailored to the South West); travel photography and camera / computer / processing technique. I have spoken to a number of camera clubs both in the south west and further a field including Kingsbridge, Taunton, Newton Abbot, Exeter, Jersey, Liskeard, Ivybridge, Nottingham etc. I will be speaking at the Royal Photographic Society conference this Autumn.

    I am a competent speaker, having been a music teacher prior to a photographer and I have been involved in some of the Grammar schools in the South West teaching students about photography and leading workshops. At present I am in the process of establishing a series of workshops both for groups and on an individual basis, so please let me know if you or your members would be interested in this aspect. These can be tailor made to suit individual / group requirements.

    My fee for a camera club talk is £85 plus travel expenses.

    Please contact me if you are interested as I am currently taking bookings for the next year.

    We run the First-View gallery at The National Trust’s Stourhead property. Until recently a lack of space has precluded our showing photographic work. Now, with additional space available we are anxious to put the matter right and would like to make contact with local camera clubs to discuss our forthcoming exhibitions and competitions.
    I would be grateful for a response, even if only to say there is no interest.
    Regards
    John Parfitt

    Dear All,

    We are running Party in the Park – Sherborne Celebrates the Royal Wedding in Pageant Gardens on Friday 29th April from 2 pm – 5 pm. Wondered if the Camera Club would like to take part in any way? We would love to have some ‘Official’ roving photographers and if you would like to put on a small exhibition about your club and / or Weddings that would be lovely.

    Sorry this is rather last-minute but if you are interested please let me know.

    Best wishes,
    Sue
