When you are first starting out working in photography it can seem a daunting and sometimes unachieveable task to get to where you want to be. But it is possible. To offer some advice and inspiration we have spoken to experienced and established photography professionals, to find out how they managed to navigate the industry and hear their words of wisdom from lessons they have learnt along the way.

Snappy Valley: A year and a pandemic later!

Snappy Valley is a process-led community photography group that was formed in October 2019 in Todmorden, a West Yorkshire town in the North of England. The aim of the group was to engage the local community in a photography project with a view to develop participants’ individual creative practice as well as create a socially engaged and collaborative body of work.

Image shows a person stood in a landscape of beautiful rolling hills. They are standing at the top of a hill, covered head to toe in tin foil, which reflects the sun. The valley opens up behind them.

Two images. One showing a person stood upon the side of a tall valley, back to the camera, looking out onto the rolling hills in front of them, trees at the bottom of the valley. The other image shows a cityscape. The cuty buildings and bridges and people are all obscured by the greenery and trees in front of it.
