A CAREER RELATED WEBSITE

The website or rather, an Instagram profile that I follow and always keep an eye on is Women Photographers History. 

It is a profile that is dedicated to post -in Spanish and English- about biographical research of women who were present in the history of photography and its development, in a very general way, it tries to break the machismo, stereotype in the area of photography and in the introduction to it.

In its feed, you can find different sections; in the featured stories we find publications with information about the page and its creators, the options of patrons to which you can subscribe to access workshops, talks or more information than what is posted.

Their posts focus on one woman photographer per day, telling her story, highlighting her contribution to photography and making it visible on social networks, in this case Instagram.

I like the site, because it addresses a topic of my interest, which is photography, but it goes out of the ordinary compared to other pages, it is focused on women, and for women; it has allowed me to meet talented referents, which in a way contribute to my personal work at the university. In addition, they provide a lot of historical context around each photographer, which helps to understand or appreciate specific things about their work, which I personally like a lot, I enjoy learning about history.
