National Photography Month 2012 is the UK's first nationwide month long celebration of photography. The Photo Marketing Association and Photo Imaging Council are behind this new initiative to help the public understand and appreciate the importance of photogaphy as a medium to 'capture and keep' their treasured memories and life's most important moments.
Backed by companies and organisations across the photographic world including National Geographic and the Royal Photography Society, June 2012 will be month-long celebration of the excitement and value of photography. Leading photographers and other high-profile figures will join the campaign to highlight the intense personal importance of photography - why it's a unique and vital part of human culture and family histories.
Novices and keen photographers alike will be invited to take part in activities and events across the UK where they will be encouraged to develop the skills to capture and preserve our personal histories for future generations.
