In 2024, The Nature Photography Society of New Zealand is celebrating its 30^th Anniversary with the Society endeavouring to hold an exhibition every two years.  In 2024, its members were asked to submit photographs for the exhibition, Nature in Black and White, accompanied by workshops for its members to “think” in black and white. 

When the Nature Photography Society of New Zealand was established in 1994, one of its fundamental aims was to provide a non-competitive environment where members could share images and advance their photography, many of its members also participating in the Photographic Society of New Zealand’s national and regional exhibitions.

As a Society it invites guest speakers offering high quality, relevant presentations, for its monthly meetings and weekend and day photography trips throughout the year.  The Society awards Honours to members whose photography reaches the appropriate standard through the submission of a set of images to its Honours Board, equivalent in standard to the Photographic Society of New Zealand.  

The Society currently has over 140 members, mostly from around Canterbury, with a scattering of members from Auckland to Gore, the West Coast and a couple of international members.  NPSNZ is open to all.  Meetings are held on the third Monday of every month at the Rock and Mineral Clubrooms, 110 Waltham Road, Christchurch.
