Belmore Society values the vibrant experiences shared by our members and has established a photography policy to capture these moments responsibly. By attending our events, members consent to the possibility of being photographed, with the understanding that images may be used for promotional, social media, and documentation purposes that reflect our club's spirit and community.
Belmore Society will make every effort to notify members in advance when dedicated photographers are present at events. We respect the preferences of members who prefer not to be photographed, though complete avoidance cannot always be guaranteed. When professional photographers are engaged, they are briefed on our commitment to member privacy, the importance of obtaining consent, and maintaining a respectful, comfortable environment for all attendees.
