Welcome to WIFIE

Wifie is an independent photography group for women living in and around Edinburgh. Members of Wifie meet to participate in workshops and visit exhibitions. During these informal meetings the group are able to discuss ideas or explore the issues raised by the work of other artists as well as being able to share knowledge, ideas and experiences within the group.

Wifie provides women with an opportunity to;

Learn new skills in photography or extend existing skills
​Meet up for workshops or to visit exhibitions
Participate in exhibitions and photography projects.
Use photography to explore issues relating to gender, power and social  politics
To network with other women's projects across Scotland

Wifie (Women In Focus In Edinburgh) is a collective for women who are interested in photography and would like to share their passion and ideas with other women. We would normally meet about once a month where we would take part in a workshop or visit an exhibition. Members would then be invited to create some of their own work in response to these events.

Assignment. Light & Shade. 

For our camera assignment at this year's AGM we chose the theme of Light & shade. Inspired by the sunny weather and of course the classic lighting used in Renaissance paintings and cinematography.

In the Spotlight

This space is for members to share the photographs they have taken which reflect their interests and achievements in their chosen field of photography. It is also a chance for them to tell us a bit about their photographic journey. Wifie members have different interests and skills, which might not always suit the projects or assignments we are given so it's nice to celebrate the varied ideas and styles that each member brings to our group. ​This image was one that Olga shared and we will be sharing some new images soon by our next member who will be 'In the Spotlight'

Lockdown Assignments

While we are unable to meet up for workshops or to visit exhibitions Wifie members have been concentrating on building their camera skills by participating in regular assignments and using WhatsApp to share their photos. These assignments have included a variety of different topics from composition and negative space to the weather and shadows.
