BENEFITS OF MEMBERSHIP

At IEPPV, you’ll find all the information, advice, and support that you need to run your business at the highest standard. The more you participate and get involved, the more you will achieve! There are many reasons to join your local PPA/PPC affiliate, including:

General Meetings

Held 5 Times Per Year

Our General Meetings are the ideal place to meet with fellow photographers to talk shop, share ideas, and enjoy an evening with friends. Meetings may include an educational speaker or a casual, no-host dinner at a local restaurant in the Inland Empire.

f64 Live Membership

f64 Live is a community for photographers of every level, offering a relaxed space to learn, share, and connect. Whether you’re refining your craft or simply hanging out with people who love cameras as much as you do, there’s a place for you. Once your IEPPV membership is confirmed, activate your f64 Live membership to join the community.

Hands-On Workshops

Our workshops are interactive, hands-on group events where we get to photograph and interact with each other and our subject. All workshops will have an educational element with a focus on inspiration and creativity.

Image Competitions

Held 5 Times Per Year

Our Image Competitions are the perfect place to hone and test your skills. We offer two divisons for image entries:

1. General Division: Designed for those entering competition for feedback on how to improve their images. This division is great for experienced photographers as well as those new to image competition.

2. Master Division: Designed for those who have already earned their PPA Masters and are looking for a more blunt, international competition-level critique.

Supportive & Digital Events

Announced Throughout the Year

Who doesn’t love more events? Our Supportive and Digital events are just that — More events to fill the gaps between our in-person workshops, image competitions, and excursions. These events will be very casual and hosted via Zoom. The intent is to create a space for more discussion and an opportunity to interact with your fellow IEPPV members before or after an event. For example, we will be hosting pre and post-Image Competition digital events to help you prepare your images and to help digest feedback from the judges.
