About
How do you make a living from the work you really want to do? As part of Redeye's work to support contemporary creative and fine art photographers to deliver personal or self-generated projects as part of their broader careers, Redeye are delighted to offer two short sessions at Beyond the Lens Festival 2017.

Beyond the Lens is an annual event from The Association of Photographers (AOP), our partner for these sessions. The AOP is one of the most prestigious professional photographers' associations in the world. The Association's aims are to promote and protect the worth and standing of its members, to vigorously defend, educate and lobby for the interests and rights of all photographers, especially in the commercial photographic industry.
