What we’re about
Want to take pictures and meet new people? Then this is the place for you.
We've held dozens of Meetups in Dublin city over the past year and a half.
We will be taking you around some fine spots in the fair city and teaching you some photography basics. Anyone with a DSLR camera bring it along but if you only have a phone that is fine too.
At all of our events we encourage people to come alone, we try our best to get people talking so you can meet new people. We ask everyone to follow social distancing and be careful at our events.
Hope to see you for an adventure soon
We run a mixture of free meetups and paid events. The paid meetups help us cover the costs of our meetup membership and support us as full time tour guides. This group is run by Ciaran and Diarmuid who also run Alternative Dublin City an events company based in Dublin.
We hope to do a weekly photowalk and a few masterclasses every month.
"I had never went to a meetup before but Dermot and Kieran were great hosts for the photowalk. It was great to have people explain different settings and also meeting people who also like photography"
