August Membership Meeting - At ROUND ROCK STUDIO (17 Aug 2026)

Mon, 17 Aug 2026 23:00:00 GMT

Have you ever wanted to see a local photography studio that's available for photographers and other creatives to use? This is a meeting you won't want to miss!

Following our general meeting, we'll take a tour of Round Rock Studio, a versatile creative space designed to support photographers, content creators, and small businesses. The studio offers a variety of shooting areas, professional backdrops, and flexible spaces that can be rented for portrait sessions, branding photography, headshots, and creative projects.

The best part? We won't just be touring the studio—we'll get to put it to use!

Bring your camera and join us for a hands-on photography experience. We'll have both a high-key and low-key setup ready, along with a couple of models so you can test out the location, experiment with lighting, and create some great images.

Whether you're looking for a future studio rental, a place to host client sessions, or simply want to expand your creative network, this is a fantastic opportunity to see what's available right here in our community.

Come ready to learn, create, and be inspired. We can't wait to see what you capture!
