Photoresk’s Relaunch: A Snapshot of What’s Taking Shape

What started as a grassroots photography meetup has flourished into a vibrant, international network connecting photographers across Brussels, Cologne, Berlin, and beyond. Today, Photoresk is evolving again—this time with a beautiful new digital home at Photoresk.com, designed to better serve our growing community and spark new creativity.

✔️ What’s Already Live

  • Fresh, Engaging Webpage: A rotating gallery of member work, “Featured Photographer” highlights, combining all groups,  and much more — all designed to reflect the heart of our community.
  • Event Management and Registration: An integrated system is already active. Members are signing up, attending events, and reconnecting—more than 200 profiles are already live!
  • The “Your Photoresk” Poll: Let your voice shape the future! Tell us which features you love and what you’d like to see next.
  • A Beautiful New Profile Section: Members can now showcase their work and personality with customized bios, portfolios, and badges. It’s your stage—and possibly the next Spotlight!

🔮 What’s Around the Corner

  • Interactive Community Features: From curated galleries and contests to generation-aware content streams and rotating spotlights, we’re building spaces that celebrate every kind of photographer.
  • Photography Articles and Tutorials: Our blog is taking shape—expect inspiration, tips, and community stories tailored to your interests.
  • Premium Options (Optional): Want more space for your work or a personal gallery? Later this summer, new upgrades will help support the platform—while keeping the basics free for everyone.

⏰ Timeline: Moving to Photoresk.com

We’re saying goodbye to Meetup on September 1, 2025. From that point forward, Photoresk.com will be our one and only home. If you haven’t already, please register or update your profile so you don’t miss a thing.

🤝 How You Can Be Part of It

  1. Create or Update Your Profile: Visit Photoresk.com to personalize your presence.
  2. Share Your Input: Take part in the “Your Photoresk” poll—we’re listening!
  3. Join Upcoming Events: Whether it’s a photo walk in Brussels or a Club Room critique night, this is your community—come take part.
  4. Support What We’re Building: Small upgrades will soon be available to help fund new features. Every bit helps keep Photoresk vibrant and inclusive.

Thank you for helping shape the next chapter of Photoresk. Together, we’re building something that’s more than a platform—it’s a space where creativity, connection, and culture come together. See you online—and maybe in the next Spotlight!
