Reasons to join the National Photographic Society

Why should you join the National Photographic Society?

For one thing the cost of membership is generally ofset by the saving you will make from being a member (an example of this is listed at the end of this page).  Many photographers join us simply to gain the discounts and freebies that come with being a member.

We offer training, qualifications, competitions, a directory, roadshows, forums and much much more.

Our qualification system allows you to submit work which then entitles you to have letters after your name.  This can gain you credibility with both your clients and other photographers.

One of the biggest savings to be made is with our free Online Cloud Storage.  This is done in partnership with LiveDrive who are the biggest online storage providors in the world.  This free to members service will monitor your computer in the background and upload your work silently to the cloud ensuring that you NEVER lose anything again.  Can you imagine trying to tell a bride and groom that you have lost their wedding photographs?  The cloud storage keeps everything on your computer safe and can be restored with a couple of clicks.  How much space to you get? UNLIMITED.  There is no limits to how much you can upload and we have members with hundreds of GigaBytes of photographs and other documents uploaded.
