Membership

The Finger Lakes Photography Guild (FLPG) is a group of photographers that strives to use digital imagery as a form of fine art. We pursue photographic excellence through ongoing training, peer reviews, and shared experiences. We’re collaborative, not competitive! 

We seek members who: 
  • Enjoy photography 
  • Are experienced photographers with a command of the equipment and digital editing 
  • Want to improve their capture and editing skills 
  • Will share their knowledge with other members 
  • Will share their photographs at FLPG-sponsored events 
  • Will support FLPG meetings, committees, events, and projects 
  • Maintain a spirit of congeniality with the Guild
We offer two categories of membership: Full (up to 35) and Associate members (unlimited).​
