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.
UPDATE.
Following our AGM Wifie have now put together a programme of Workshops and exhibition visits. We are very excited to be able to offer our members a range of different activities over the coming months including a session on camera skills, street photography and responding to the work of other artists after a visit to different exhibitions.
Looking forward to see all Wifie members and different events and seeing the amazing work that will be produced over the year.

Why not have a look at one of our previous AGM picnics and photo sessions.
In 2021 Wifie held its AGM at Saughton Park in Edinburgh. We had a fabulous day with a lovely warm sun and brilliant location for taking photos. Following the AGM, which was held in the bandstand our photography challenge was to take photos in the following themes, Beauty of Nature, Structure, Minimalism and Abstract.
