Exposed DC

for the love of DC photography

Welcome to the Home for DC Photography

By

Today we launch a new place for Washington, D.C. photography. For the last seven years we’ve organized the Exposed Photography Show through local blog DCist as a place for Washington, D.C. photographers to show off their unique view of the city that they love and live in. We’ve hosted the occasional meet-up and branched off with Exposed winners to other projects, but now it’s time for us to put it all in one place: Welcome to Exposed DC.

There has always been an engaging group of photography lovers in this city, from pure hobbyists to full-time professionals. We want ExposedDC.com to be the place you come to find information for all skill levels, a special event in town to practice your skills, a happy hour to hob-nob with other camera geeks, and challenges leading up to our annual Exposed contest.

As in years past, we were so impressed with the fantastic diversity of work depicting the place we all call home — take some time to click the link above and peruse them all.

By

As of noon today, December 5, the contest is open for the 7th annual DCist Exposed Photography Show. Gather ye images of local culture and pick your best three. You can submit photos until January 9, but we highly suggest making a Flickr account now if you don’t have one yet. They’re free, but Flickr will usually take a few days to review new accounts to make sure they aren’t spam or otherwise inappropriate, so if you want until January 9, you might have problems getting your photos in the pool.
