Our first meetup went great, time for round 2!Hello! My name is Vanja Delph (she/her) and I am the photographer behind Delphoto. The goal of the GR Photo Meetup is to facilitate connection, community, and creativity in what can sometimes be an isolating hobby/profession.
Feel free to bring your business cards, a portfolio, or even gear you might want to show off. Come grab a coffee or a pizza and swap stories with other enthusiasts. At this meetup we'll also discuss ideas for summer events and how often people would like to meet up in the future.
The meetup starts now: if you'd like, share a bit about yourself in the comments! It can help people start getting to know you, and also be a good reference for people you connect with at the meetup. If you'd like you can start out with:
1. Name/age/gender/pronouns/etc.
2. What do you like to shoot? Why do you like about it?
3. What's one of your favorite photography moments or experiences?
4. What are you hoping to find at the meetup?
5. Besides photography, do you have other passions?
You can also share:
* A photo of yourself (so we can recognize you at the meetup! Doesn't have to be professional.)
* Some of your work
* Your socials and websites
-------------------------------
Note on Inclusivity: All Delphoto events aim to be a welcoming space for all genders, races, orientations, neurotypes, and abilities. All beliefs and lifestyles (that do not harm or dehumanize other people) should be treated respectfully even if they are different than our own. Diversity and discovering new perspectives is wonderful for creativity, so it benefits all of us when we create a space that everyone can feel safe to express themselves in. Always respect people's pronouns and identities. If you find yourself struggling, or if someone makes you uncomfortable, you can let me (Vanja) know.
