The big idea!

It's quite simple really. I wanted to build a community of photographers, who could engage with high quality talks and inspiration, for a reasonable price - almost pocket money - so it would encourage people to get involved.

When the UK was 'locked down' in March 2020, many camera clubs went into hibernation and I really wanted to continue to engage with photography, but couldn't find anyone who had organised a high quality programme of regular talks.

 

So I set up the Camversation in September 2020, as a replacement for all of the interesting talks which would normally happen in photography clubs. I try to run one talk a week, with a variety of speakers to cover different genres.

​

As of June 2023, I'm really pleased to say the Camversation community has grown and has an active Facebook group too.

Hi there! I'm Mark

The format

  • I try to keep it simple, relaxed and enjoyable.

  • Most talks begin at 7pm, although I do occasionally have to consider other time zones and make talks a little earlier or later. I have also trialled some on a weekend.

  • Talks are usually 90 mins long, with a 10 minute break halfway.

  • Some talks are recorded. These are highlighted in advance of the talk.

  • My aim is to make these talks accessible, so they're between £3.75 and £5.

  • Currently, I use Zoom to host meetings.
