Chicago Photographic Arts Society is a collective of Fine Art Photographers.

Chicago Photographic Arts Society originated from a gathering of kindred souls at the Chicago Botanic Gardens. We are all purveyors of the world's beauty—some of us capture it as it exists, while others of us breathe new life into our images by changing perspectives, or using the camera as “Monet’s paintbrush” to reveal nature’s splendor and power.
