Photo Social
Our photo socials are open to everyone and completely free of charge.
This is a friendly event for anyone who would like to share their work or connect with others in the Leeds photography community.
We encourage attendees to bring along some of their images or bodies of work to share with the group. However, please don’t feel obliged to bring anything, you’re more than welcome to come along simply to join in and support others. The social is a chance to meet new people and enjoy engaging with your peers. Everyone is welcome. We look forward to seeing you there!
We have three principles that we try to adhere to during the socials. The first one is quite a firm one… Be kind. There is a place for more substantial critique in creative practice, but the social is intended as a space to encourage others and lift them up, not to shoot them down. If possible, we ask that you bring physical prints. Not only is it nice to show something tangible, but it’s also good to spread work out on a table and let people really look at them!
We also have a no gear talk rule… discussing your pictures is more constructive when we’re considering why we’re making work as opposed to the tools we used to create it. You’re welcome to have gear chat in the pub afterwards!
If you'd like to attend, please book a free ticket so we can keep an eye on numbers. Everyone is welcome, and it’s completely free.
This event is BYOB (Bring Your Own Beverage) – alcoholic or non-alcoholic, the choice is yours.
