In some weird and wonderful way the Internet has put me in touch with some super cool people. I’m a big believer in Twitter, Facebook and obviously blogging! The reason, well it’s simple… It just works! As a matter of fact, the Internet makes the world a really small place. It brings you in contact with so many people and specifically people with similar interests. Last night I had the privilege to meet some of the faces behind Facebook ;)

As part of KIKI (read more below) we are starting meet-ups all around the world. KIKI meet-ups are basically photographer get togethers for amateurs and pros, to share and learn. To chat, help each other and support one another.

Last night we had our first London meet-up and it was simply amazing! Meeting all these photographers made me feel happy. I walked away with a smile and knew that this was not about me, but about something much bigger. It’s about support, sharing knowledge and most of all about building relationships.

The KIKI London meet ups will happen on a monthly basis. If you want to receive more info about these meet-ups, please befriend Tanya on Facebook and send her a message. ( this is London specific)

If you want to receive more info regarding other parts of the world or if you want to start a group, please mail me.

For those of you who missed out on the post about KIKI, here is a bit from a previous post:

KIKI – some of you might have seen some info on our facebook page. But apart from my love for weddings, I also have a BIG love for photographers and seeing them grow! I’ve had the privilege to meet some amazing people the past few years and I would love to continue encouraging people to follow their dream. KIKI is a place where people can share, encourage and uplift one another. A place where photographers can build a community. (The KIKI website is still in the development stages, but we are thinking of the following areas, please let us know what you think…this is for you!! So we need your feedback!!)

• KIKI community: a photography playground, similar to a forum
• KIKI blog: some random photography thoughts
• KIKI school: Online learning from anywhere in the world.
• KIKI resources: LR Presets, legal documents, Photoshop actions, WP-plugins and more fun stuff.
• KIKI websites: In collaboration with PlusPlusMinus, we’re launching awesome WP website & blog templates especially for photographers.
• KIKI outreach: Teaching photography to underprivileged children in Africa.
• KIKI meet-ups: Meet the people behind Facebook & share life!
