Keeping in touch with fellow photographers on The Societies' Forum, we believe is one of the most significant benefits of membership.

Whatever stage you are at in your career, forum membership gives you the opportunity to:

Be at the forefront of knowledge sharing and best practice thinking
Keep up to date with current photo issues
Debate with experts in specialist areas
Network with other photographers
Add to your continuous professional development

The weekly competitions are popular with the members. Each week a new theme is selected for both the Wedding and General competitions and members are able to vote for the winning image from the previous weeks entries.

We have added a board specifically for The Societies Announcements. This will keep you updated with all the latest news from head office.

The members who regularly use the forum will make you feel very welcome and you can join in by saying hello in the dedicated ‘Introduce Yourself’ section.
