About StartPhoto

StartPhoto is an attempt to create an online photographic art community of photographers, artists, students and educators, and collectors. Photographers of all types and experience are welcome here; landscape photographers, people who pinhole, collage cognoscenti, alternative process printers, view camera fanatics, and everyone else that wants to exhibit their prints in the galleries and receive constructive feedback.

StartPhoto was created and is maintained by volunteers:

Ron Johnson: “When I left art school, I didn’t realize the thing I’d miss the most was the feedback, the critiques, the interaction with my classmates. While this website is no substitute for the art school experience, hopefully you and others like you will benefit from the community experience.”
