About
Marches Independent Photography
Marches Independent Photography is a small and informal group of photographers who first started meeting in 2007 to enjoy and learn from each other’s work. To date, we seem to have established only one rule – that ‘There are no rules!’ We don’t hold competitions and this, hopefully, encourages experimentation and innovation alongside the development of classic photographic skills. In fact, within reason, anything goes!
We hold a full day (approx 10:00 - 16:00) meet once a month, usually on a Saturday. The venue is usually a village hall or pub near Shrewsbury or Church Stretton. Our meetings usually involve a fair amount of chat and individual members may show some of their work to the rest of the group, often in an informal round-the-table manner.
We also occasionally invite visiting speakers and the wider photographic community. Previous speakers include John Blakemore, Paul Hill and Daniel Meadows.
The range of skills and approaches represented by our membership is very diverse and conversations can vary from traditional darkroom chemistry and high-end digital manipulation to the price and quality of prints from Boots and how we might shoot 360-degree panoramas with a pinhole camera!
Please send us an email through the "Contact" link if you would like further information about the group.
