About the event

Let's connect! Join us for a coffee this Sunday to talk all things photography.

Whether you're a beginner photographer or seasoned professional, this is a chance to get together and talk cameras, lighting, subjects, photo shoots, and/or ask questions about anything photography-related. 

Rebecca McMillan, is a Wellington-based portrait and events photographer, in Christchurch for the NZIPP annual conference. Rebecca is a Sony Digital Imaging Advocate who loves to run community events for photographers. 

Coffee is pay-your-own-way, and we'll be at C1 Espresso High Street for a cuppa before a day of NZIPP workshops and events. Join us from 8am until 9.30am.
