About
The story of SheClicks and the woman who started it all…
M E E T A N G E L A
I started reviewing cameras and photographic kit in early 2004 and since then I’ve been Amateur Photographer’s Technical Editor and Head of Testing for Future Publishing’s extensive photography portfolio (Digital Camera, Professional Photography, NPhoto, PhotoPlus, Photography Week, Practical Photoshop, Digital Camera World and TechRadar).
I started SheClicks for a number of reasons. For instance, I’d love to see more women at photographic events and for us to have a greater say in camera and accessory development. I’d also like to see a more even gender split in the ranks of camera manufacturer ambassadors and for women’s photography to get the appreciation, respect and credit it deserves. I believe that we are stronger together and that collaboration is the way forward. SheClicks is a community for all female photographers whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned professional, you are welcome to join the SheClicks network of female photographers.

SheClicks was founded in August 2018 by Angela Nicholson, beginning life as a Facebook group.
The SheClicks community grew quickly, reaching 1,000 members within a month, and it’s continuing to grow as more women enjoy the support of other women who share their love of photography.
The purpose of SheClicks is to encourage and support female photographers of all levels of experience, from novices using a phone to experienced pros handling top-end kit. While the group started in the UK, the membership is now global. To find out more about the SheClicks story, click here to read my blog post.
