Some background:
· PSSA was founded in 1954 because it was believed a representative body would be the best vehicle for promoting high photographic standards and to look after the interests of all photographers and clubs in South Africa. The founding members believed in the principle of stronger together.
· Among PSSA's achievements over the past 70 years are international recognition of several members as world-leading photographers, and PSSA winning an international competition for nine consecutive years.
· While PSSA is rich in history and achievements, it keeps members updated with the latest photographic techniques and social media opportunities. Members are encouraged to work towards earning national and international honours on various levels.
· PSSA promotes personal skills by offering a countrywide competition to measure personal work through national and international salons.
· The photographic skills of club members are improved by training judges who provide knowledgeable feedback during competitions. Members are also offered learning opportunities with lectures and workshops by expert speakers at regional and annual national congresses.
· The society promotes school and youth photography with dedicated salons and competitions.
· PSSA was invited by the official South African government training body — MICT SETA — to assist with formulating a curriculum to obtain photographic qualifications.
