LOOK CLOSER - Next Wednesday, August 5, PhotoPhlo founder Matthew Baum is hosting a free one-hour critique bootcamp for photographers who would like to improve their critical eye and confidence in offering feedback on other photographers’ work. The event will run online from 6:30–7:30pm ET.

In this session Matthew will provide an overview of the critique process and present a clear and practical framework for analyzing photographs. In addition to a slide presentation on reading photographs effectively, the session will include a group critique exercise.

Everyone is welcome, whether you’re new to critiques or curious about a new way of thinking about photographs.

ON THE APP: MATTHEW BAUM - We’re kicking off a new series featuring photographers you can meet on the PhotoPhlo app. First up…me.

I’m the founder of PhotoPhlo and a photographer and educator based in New York’s Hudson Valley. I always loved cameras, but I truly found photography on a meandering road trip after I dropped out of architecture school. Within a week I knew it was my path.

The photos in this reel are from The Last Picture Show, a long-term project exploring the United States through more than 150,000 miles of road trips between 9/11 and the 2016 presidential election. The work includes landscapes, portraits, and candid observations from across the country.

I launched the PhotoPhlo education platform in 2023 and now the app after realizing that the most valuable thing I gave my students in 20 years of teaching was a place to meet other photographers, share work, exchange feedback, and find camaraderie.

If you’d like to join me and other thoughtful and engaged photographers, we’re currently testing the app with a private group and you’re invited. The first iteration features the Daily Phlo, a fun, once-a-day photo game that connects photographers through their work, building genuine relationships and real conversation.
