*** Rendezvous 2025 ***
Hello everyone, as stated below, we limit the number of photographers attending our gathering to 20. We like to allow ample time for each photographer to present a substantial body of work and discuss their approach to their art. This also keeps the group more intimate and allows time for some group activities, outings and just plain relaxing with friends. As of now we are fully booked for our October meeting. There have been occasions in the past when someone has had to withdraw for unforeseen reasons, so we will maintain a waiting list. If you would like to be on that list please fill out a registration form and get it sent to Joe. If a spot does open up we will contact folks in order of receipt and you will be asked to quickly provide a deposit in order to secure the spot.
The dates are set, we will be meeting October 1st thru 5th, 2025 at the beautiful Black Range Lodge in Kingston, New Mexico. We are looking forward to another great year of new work by our intimate group. The reception for our 4th annual show at the historic Percha Bank will be on Friday afternoon/evening. Your planning group would like you to select images that emphasize the storytelling aspect of photography… we’re not looking for fairy tales, but how photography can illustrated how you feel about your subject. Every one of our previous attendees uses photography in this way, so please don’t feel anxious about this theme. Taking your suggestions to heart, we’re trying to improve our gathering’s feeling of community by organizing a group activity. stay tuned for more information.
Please CLICK HERE to access a copy of the registration form. Keep in mind that we keep this group small and intimate by limiting the number of photographers to 20 so that everyone has plenty of time to share their portfolios and discuss their work. We often fill up early, but will maintain a waitlist to fill in cancellations that we do have from time to time. Keep in mind that payments are due by September 1st.
Wishing everyone good light this Spring from your planning group: Bob, Dania, Emmitt, Joe & Karen

Rendezvous Southwest was founded by Jan Pietrzak, Paul Schranz, and Nolan Preece to create a group that was open to photographic experimentation, mutually supportive and small. The ‘small’ part is meant to provide time for all to share details of their work and be heard as artists.
It is a group focused not on technique, although that is addressed in our workshops, but on our art. We range from classical photographers to alternative process and experimental photographic artists. We are open to all kinds of work, without criticism.
