A showcase of working women photographers, in particular a few who have been shooting in the industry for 20 years or more in the commercial, magazine and advertising sector.
Sunday the 13th of November in Sydney at Stables Studios -7 Little Bourke Street Surry Hills NSW
The Idea:
A large number of female commercial, magazine and advertising photographers are quietly working away and this showcase is to help encourage, bring together and inspire these women photographers to start a discussion amongst themselves and to let them know that they are not alone.
The speakers are Penelope Beveridge, Lisa Saad and Michelle Aboud all of whom have been shooting in the industry for more than 20 years each. Each of these female photographers have made their own individual way into the commercial world of photography and each have succeeded greatly despite the opinions that they would fail. It's a testament to their belief in themselves and also in their ability in being great image makers.
"Girls on Film" at Sugar Studios in Melbourne is just the first step with a second event scheduled in Sydney the following day at Stables Studio will allow a true afternoon of connection filled with information, fun, laughter, tears, networking and just a really good time.
All speakers will be on stage at the same time, with a dialogue between themselves and the audience, chatting about their careers, there struggles, their moments of triumph and their moments of complete resolve as they dedicated the majority of their youth and early adulthood building their photography business in a world that was heavily dominated by the idea that women photographers were only for the light and airy campaigns or jobs that did not require too much of an effort or technical skill.
Through this and the communication and discussions that will hopefully develop it will be a moment in time where us as women can connect and appreciate each other and the contribution that we are giving to the industry.
These women will show that their "can do" attitude demonstrates that anything is possible.
