About Us

Kolkata Turning Lens Photographic Society

Founded on November 11, 2011, and formally registered under the West Bengal Societies Registration Act (1961) as a non-profit on July 2, 2012, KTLPS is a thriving community that celebrates photography in all its forms. We believe photography goes beyond simple point-and-shoot—it's an artistic journey, an invitation to see the world differently.

Our Vision

What We Believe

Art is not limited to point-and-shoot snaps — it is the expression of a story, a journey, a spark of creativity that connects us all. Whether it is through the single frame of a photograph, the cinematic sweep of a video, or the boundless possibilities of digital artistry, each medium has its own magic.

What We Do

Inspirational Meet-Ups & Workshops: Learn new techniques, share tips, and explore fresh perspectives with fellow creatives.

Competitions & Exhibitions: Challenge yourself, gain recognition, and celebrate achievements as part of a supportive community.

E-Magazines & Online Platforms: Showcase your work, get published, and connect with artists locally and globally.

Themed Shoots & Projects: Capture the world through different lenses—be it photographic, videographic, or digital—to expand your skill set and push creative boundaries.
