What is PhotoCamp London?

PhotoCamp is for everyone; newbies, professionals, teachers — everyone is welcome! PhotoCamp is about creating an affordable (free) event with themes surrounding photography and cinematography. Education and community involvement take a front seat throughout the discussions of these mediums.

An unconference is a small conference where the content is provided by the attendees. Each conference will have only a basic structure up until it starts. People are asked to contribute sessions that they want to present or hear about. Those sessions are picked up by someone with experience in that field and they present it. A session is between 5 and 30 minutes and can cover any topic related to photography and cinematography.
