Retina Scottish International Photography Festival

Retina 14 saw two of the industry’s most celebrated professionals, famous fashion and celebrity photographer Rankin and international fashion model and photographer, Helena Christensen launch the event at the wonderful Assembly Rooms Ballroom. We were also able to showcase some of the best UK and international press photography from the world of news, royalty, sport, business, fashion and entertainment from the UK Picture Editors’ Guild Awards at the City Chambers with the support of the City of Edinburgh Council. Our emerging talent was represented by award winning Edinburgh College and we look forward to diversifying our representation from colleges and talent across Scotland this year.

The organisers of Retina are determined to hear the views of the industry and see what would make the best possible festival line up for 2016 and also to engage with a wide range of businesses, creative and stakeholders so that the success of the festival is secure for future years. Dates and venues are being finalised and we have a number of exciting and inspirational professionals to showcase as well as more emerging and new talent and the opportunity for a Retina Fringe is taking shape! More to follow soon!
