Established in 2013 by MainStreetHost and taken on by Alex Luyckx Photography in 2015, #photochat is a community of photography professionals and enthusiasts who congregate to talk shop and discuss anything and everything photography. After a brief pause through 2023 Photochat is back with a monthly chat model. To participate in our monthly chat (every Second Thursday at 1:00 pm (ish)), search the #photochat hashtag on Twitter, Mastodon, and BlueSky Social to see the conversation, or find me at @AlexLuyckxPhoto on Twitter, Mastodon & BlueSky. Include the hashtag in your tweets to answer the questions and talk with the other participants. I will be actively participating when I can but only on one platform with my responses, the cycle is: BlueSky (Jan, Apr, Jul, Oct), Twitter (Feb, May, Aug, Nov), and Mastodon (Mar, Jun, Sep, Dec). But I will seek to engage with everyone on all platforms as best as I can.
