Our Story

The club was setup in 1977, when John Cartmel Crossley an artist from St. Margaret’s Hope, along with Colin Johnstone called a public meeting with the intention of getting others who were interested in photography together to form a Camera Club. 

After a good turnout at the meeting a committee was formed and Orkney Camera Club began.

Over the years the members and committee has changed, but the club has stayed strong. The club has evolved, moving to a location which has Internet access has allowed many amazing guest speakers from Orkney and further afield via online meetings.
