The Online Portfolio Review offers participating photographers the opportunity to present their work to industry professionals—from curators to practitioners, editors to educators. Reviewers will offer valuable feedback on your work and guidance for your career. 

So, whether you would like feedback on work in progress, guidance on how to present a completed body of work, advice on how to gain professional opportunities or exposure, the Exposure 2022 Online Portfolio Review is an ideal chance for you to get the input and advice you need. 

Don’t miss this incredible opportunity to meet these highly influential professionals and show them your work!

We have an incredible line-up of reviewers from Calgary, Alberta, Canada and beyond! CLICK HERE TO VIEW THE EXPOSURE 2022 PORTFOLIO REVIEWERS or see below for information on how our online event will be hosted. 

Please note that this year’s Portfolio Review will be hosted online via Zoom. Due to the event’s online format, the Portfolio Review will be hosted over 2 days, Saturday 12th February and Saturday 19th February. Photographers should pick the date they prefer depending on both their availability and their choice of Reviewers. Each review date has a different list of Reviewers. Once you have registered for your chosen date you will only see the Reviewers who are available on that particular day. Photographers who wish to see additional reviewers are welcome to register for both February 12th and February 19th and pay 2 separate fees.


BEFORE YOU REGISTER

Please read the following Exposure 2022 Portfolio Review notes, terms and conditions:

  • Review slots will be given on a first-come first-served basis and the registration form will ask you to rank your Reviewer choices from 1 (most favored) to 10. We advise that you write down your preferences and ranked choices before registering. 

  • Photographers will receive 4 reviews, but we ask you to rank your choices in case some slots have already been taken. Please note that your review schedule will be emailed to you about a week before the event, along with the event's zoom link and other relevant information.

  • The Exposure 2022 Portfolio Review will be held on zoom, using private breakout rooms to connect reviewer and photographer only for their allotted time slots. This will be managed by Exposure.

  • The Exposure event moderators will place photographers into their review about a minute before the session's start time and then send a warning near the end of the review. Once your time slot is up, the event moderator will exit you from your meeting to allow the next photographer to join.

  • Photographers should check their audio and video prior to the event date and have their digital portfolio ready to view prior to the event. Please ensure that you have access to a reliable internet connection, a system that can smoothly run a webcam, microphone and speaker to facilitate the reviews.

  • The event moderators will not be in any of the individual reviews unless asked to come in and help with any difficulties. If a photographer experiences any technical difficulties, they should send a message to the event moderator using Zoom’s chat feature or by emailing Exposure Coordinator, Beth Kane, beth@exposurephotofest.com .

  • The Portfolio Review will start at 9am and finish at 2pm MST. Reviews will be scheduled within this time frame, however we advise that photographers do not log out of Zoom between their scheduled review time slots. Please log into the event at 9am and leave at 2pm. Review time slots will be 20 minutes each and there will be 2 breaks during the event.

  • Photographers will be asked to share their screens to show reviewers their portfolios. In the event registration confirmation email, photographers will be asked to upload their portfolio as a PDF file onto a google drive. This will allow reviewers to access photographers’ portfolios in case photographers have problems with sharing their screens during the review.

  • Photographers will receive a zoom weblink via email that will allow them to join the event. Photographers should not share this weblink with anyone.

  • If you experience any technical difficulties or if you miss your scheduled review time slot, Exposure will not refund your registration fee or reorganise your review for another time or date.

  • The initial registration is for Alberta-based photographers only and the registration form asks you for your postcode to determine your eligibility. If you are based outside of Alberta, you will be able to register for the event beginning on Wednesday 12th January.

  • If you have any questions please email Exposure Coordinator, Beth Kane, beth@exposurephotofest.com .
