Background
The Ottawa Photography Meetup aims to bring together small groups of photographers to practice their craft and meet like minded artistic individuals. Come to a Photography Meetup to talk about the latest gear, swap tips and techniques, share your images and stories -- and have fun doing it!This group is open to all - from beginner, amateur and of course to the more professional digital and film photographers. Only a handful of members are semi-pro, most are keen hobbyists and amateurs who just enjoy learning and practicing.Our focus is wide - landscapes, public events, nature, architecture, animals, macro, travel ...Let us know your focus/interests.The group is run on a break-even basis so often sessions like a "Nature Walk" have no out of pocket costs and hence are offered for free.We also have many models in the group who we typically shoot in a studio, or on location. These model sessions explore all aspects of people and model photography. They focus on lighting and posing individuals.Sessions include themes like boudoir, glamour, cos-play, art-nudes, portraits and more. We aim to cover a range of interests all dealing with photography of male and female models (fitness, boudoir, pin-up, glamour, and art nudes; plus fashion and creative themes like cosplay).The model sessions typically do have a fee as we aim to hire reliable models, and also need to cover studio fees / location costs. Some hosts may also include an honorarium.Models - A few networking events like the Spring Fling, Fall Fashion etc. are open to all models. Many other sessions have preselected models, who have demonstrated their experience, popularity and reliability. There are also special training sessions, such a the KICKSTART, aimed at helping new models get coaching and kick-starting a portfolio. If you are interested in opportunities as a model, please reach out at the email on the bottom of this page.
