Padre Trails Logo

Padre Trails Camera Club has been active on the Monterey Peninsula since 1948. Our meetings are free and open to the public and involve image and technique sharing, informational programs and friendly monthly competition. Beginner or experienced, if your goal is to create more compelling images, Padre Trails can help.

The technology used to create striking photographic images has changed massively since 1948 but the sharing community of photographers has remained constant. PTCC strives to nurture that community through a relaxed meeting atmosphere, print and projected image sharing and discussion, professional critiques and group outings.

Upcoming Events


Meetings - We have started a transition to a hybrid meeting system where in-person physical meetings and Zoom virtual meetings will be conducted. The format of the meetings may change as we become more adapted to the technical issues that may be involved.
