I have now created a not-for-profit photographic community project with fellow photographer Ben Ellis.

ShutterPod is an online and photographic event company and is a precursor to the opening of a photographic centre in Cornwall.

ShutterPod aims to enhance its community through the medium of photography in a fun and rewarding manner.

In a time when photography should be accessible to all, ShutterPod's mission is to breakdown barriers, eliminate stereotypes, and capture the imagination of everyone regardless of their photographic background through exhibitions, discussion, workshops, and mentoring.

ShutterPod will also nurture new talent, promote established lens-based artists, and celebrate the great things happening with and in photography, and engage with a wider audience through its work in the education, social and health sectors.

Pop into the Pod soon - www.shutterpod.co.uk

If you would like to get involved, whether a practising photographer, a keen hobby photographer, a community group representative, or other interested party, we would love to hear from you.

We are also keen to identify patrons who believe in the ethos of this project and who would be a able to support the start-up of this centre with a minimal financial outlay in return for a number of non-financial rewards.

Do please drop me an e-mail to discover potential links.
