Hi everyone! We hope you had great Christmas and New Year's Eve. One of the goals of our society is to provide our members with photography jobs. In the new year we want to pursue this goal even more. That's why we've paired up with a company T-Junction Photography, founded by one of the UoM students. T-junction helps both amateur and professional photographers find suitable photography jobs for all types of photography all around the UK. For about £7 per month you are guara...nteed to get 5 leads (per month) or more that give you a chance to get a photography job suitable for you! The GOOD NEWS is that if we get 100 people to declare their interest in this service (through the form below), our society will get THREE month membership for FREE (for everyone). So if you think you could use such service just FILL IN this form and write UOM (important!) next to your name: https://harrypanter.typeform.com/to/NhPC9 O
This is by no means a binding declaration so if you later decide not to become a member that's perfectly fine. However, by filling in this form you increase the chance of the whole PhotoSoc getting a free three month membership!
