PhotoPlus Expo is the epitome of the autumnal photographic conference, an industry tradition of networking, investigating and testing out new products, asking experts questions, and listening to presentations from inspiring and talented brand-sponsored photographers.

That said, without any question, every year, when I attend this conference, my fellow attendees are much more often male in identification. It’s a commonly acknowledged fact with other women in attendance, and is beginning to get noticed by other parts of the industry as well. As such, I was given a critical lens to examine PPE through (as a test model for conferences in general, a sample subject if you will): How can conferences make themselves more accessible to women, and what presently contributes to them being so male-dominated?. thephoblographer.com
