Portfolio Reviews 2017

Saturday 16 Sept 2017, 1:00 – 4:30pm – Eden Court, Inverness
Cost: FREE
Generously sponsored by Inverness Camera Club

FLOW is delighted to announce that we have 4 portfolio reviewers taking part in our Portfolio Review sessions:

• Malcolm Dickson, Director of Street Level Photoworks in Glasgow
• Katherine Parhar, Director of Fòcas Scotland
• James Pfaff, photographer and mentor to both the New Photographers Guild (in association with Street Level Photoworks), Glasgow and The Cultural Enterprise Office, Glasgow
• FLOW Festival Review Team

The review sessions are for committed photographers and photo based makers / artists at all levels and all ages, who have an interest in developing their work.  Your work does not have to be finished or ‘gallery ready’ but you should have a ‘body of work’ you can show which will help the reviewers understand your work and your approach. We would suggest around 10 – 15 images would be suitable, but this is not a ‘rule’.

Work does not have to be mounted or framed and can be presented on your laptop, tablet or as prints. You will need to bring your own IT and chargers/mains cables if you are showing digital work.

If you are not sure that you ready to show your work yet then have a look at this website – it gives a useful overview of a photography portfolio review session:

Bookings should be made by email to flowphotofest@gmail.com

The Reviewers will be working independently and you can book in to meet up with more than one, so you can book yourself into 4 separate slots.  Please email Matt and indicate clearly which Reviewers you would like to meet.  It is first come, first served.

Each slot will be 20 minutes long and the organisers will create a schedule and you will be informed of your times prior to the day.

We anticipate this being a popular event and we cannot guarantee that there will be places for everyone, so please book in early.

PRINT SWAP/SHARING SESSION

We are also organising a Print Swap session to run in tandem with the portfolio reviews. As there will be a lot of people visiting who may not wish to take part in reviews we will have a range of tables available where photographers can lay out their work and chat to each other about what they are up to.  These can be fun sessions where lots of networking and chat can take place.  We will also have a print table where people can swap prints.   All photographers are welcome to participate in this part of the day.

Please email flowphotofest@gmail.com if you have any questions about this session.
