Join a relaxed social gathering to photograph the streets people, and details of Cambridge, while meeting new people with similar interests

Welcome to Social Photography

My name is Daniel, and I started Social Photography while based in Cambridge.

Social Photography exists to help people socialise through photography in a friendly, inclusive way—no pressure, no egos, and no requirement to own expensive gear.

Member-run, friendship-focused

Photography can sometimes feel isolating. Social Photography meet-ups give you a regular opportunity to connect with other photographers, share ideas and build friendships.

UKSP provides the date, time and location. Members make the meet-up happen together—there is no designated host or organised programme.

How to find each other

When you arrive, look for a camera on a table or a small sign saying “Social Photography”. If you’re the first there, put out your own camera or sign so others can find you.

Start a conversation, welcome anyone arriving on their own, and help everyone feel included. If you fancy taking photos afterwards, suggest a photowalk and organise it together. The community shapes what happens next.

The monthly meet-up is FREE. No paid membership is required to attend.

To stay connected between meets and organise photowalks together, join our optional Telegram community:

£2/month Community: support the community, keep in touch and organise with other members.

£5/month Professional: everything in Community, plus your own approved website profile and access to suitable paid opportunities.

Professional membership is £5 total per month.

If you upload any images to Instagram, you are also welcome to collaborate with @UKSocialPhotography so your work can be shared on our main feed and seen by the wider community.
