Ffoto Cymru 2026: Portfolio Reviews

As part of Ffoto Cymru 2026, we are offering free portfolio reviews for Welsh and Wales based photographers and artists working with photography. This is an excellent opportunity for one-on-one advice from experts working across the UK and internationally in a relaxed, friendly environment. Through these reviews participants can expect to expand their professional networks while gaining vital feedback on their artistic development and ongoing projects.

Our Reviewers:

; Director of Ffotogallery

; Glaz Festival and Guernsey Photography Festival Artistic Director (Speaks: French, English)

; Independent Curator and Director of Sebahtage (Speaks: Potwari, Urdu)

; Curator & Exhibitions Manager Royal Photographic Society

; co-founder and Director of GRAIN Projects

; Senior Curator of Photography at Amgueddfa Cymru

The Ffoto Cymru Portfolio Review Day will take place in person at Ffotogallery on the 16th October. Each review will last 20 minutes. If you are unable to attend in person due to disability / chronic illness, we may be able to accommodate an online session: if that’s the case, please get in touch with Radha stating the name of your preferred reviewer: [email protected]

This opportunity is not available for students or those in full time education.

What you need to know:

1. Portfolio Reviews are a unique opportunity to network and get valuable tips from experts. These are fine art portfolio reviews - not a commercial opportunity (i.e. you won’t sell work or be offered an exhibition by the end of it).
2. Review slots are strictly limited to 20 minutes. Reviewers are unable to look at video or time based work as part of these portfolio reviews.
3. These reviews are for photographers / artists with existing professional experience and those looking for feedback on sharing their work with new audiences. This opportunity is not open to students or those in full time education.
4. You do not have to share a finished project. You could show work in progress and research material that explores ideas rather than outcomes, but this must be edited to 10 images that shows your best work, interest or focus.
5. Edit carefully to receive the most from your time - your project will be reviewed on the strength of the series as a whole, not as individual photos.

How to sign up:

Select your reviewer by purchasing a free ticket via eventbrite and confirm your ticket.

THEN: email [email protected] who'll let you know what time slots are available.
Please note: Each person may book one portfolio review slot only. Please purchase one ticket per person. Multiple bookings for the same person are not permitted.

Adolygiadau Portffolio

Adolygiadau Portffolio ar gyfer ffotograffwyr ac artistiaid sy’n gweithio gyda ffotograffiaeth ac sy’n byw yng Nghymru neu sy’n dod o Gymru.

Fel rhan o Ffoto Cymru 2026, rydyn ni’n cynnig adolygiadau am ddim o bortffolios ar gyfer ffotograffwyr ac artistiaid sy’n gweithio gyda ffotograffiaeth ac sy’n byw yng Nghymru neu sy’n dod o Gymru.

Mae hwn yn gyfle gwych i gael cyngor un-i-un gan arbenigwyr sy’n gweithio ledled gwledydd Prydain ac yn rhyngwladol, mewn amgylchedd hamddenol a chyfeillgar. Drwy’r adolygiadau hyn, gall cyfranogwyr ddisgwyl ehangu eu rhwydweithiau proffesiynol a chael adborth gwerthfawr ar eu datblygiad artistig a’u prosiectau parhaus.

Siân Addicott – Cyfarwyddwr Ffotogallery

Jean-Christophe Godet – Cyfarwyddwr Artistig, Gŵyl Glaz a Gŵyl Ffotograffiaeth Guernsey
Ieithoedd: Ffrangeg, Saesneg

Sebah Chaudhry – Curadur Annibynnol a Chyfarwyddwr Sebahtage
Ieithoedd: Potwari, Wrdw

Bydd Diwrnod Adolygu Portffolio Ffoto Cymru yn cael ei gynnal wyneb yn wyneb yn Ffotogallery ar 16 Hydref. Bydd pob adolygiad yn para 20 munud.

Os na allwch ddod wyneb yn wyneb oherwydd anabledd neu salwch cronig, mae’n bosib y gallwn fod yn hyblyg a threfnu sesiwn ar-lein. Os felly, cysylltwch â Radha gan nodi enw’r adolygydd o’ch dewis:

Dydy’r cyfle yma ddim ar gael i fyfyrwyr na phobl sydd mewn addysg lawn amser.

Mae Adolygiadau Portffolio yn gyfle unigryw i rwydweithio ac i gael awgrymiadau gwerthfawr gan arbenigwyr. Adolygiadau portffolio celfyddyd gain yw’r rhain – nid cyfle masnachol. Hynny yw, fyddwch chi ddim yn gwerthu gwaith nac yn cael cynnig arddangosfa ar ei ddiwedd.

Mae cyfyngiad llym o 20 munud ar slotiau adolygu. All adolygwyr ddim edrych ar waith fideo na gwaith ar sail amser fel rhan o’r adolygiadau portffolio hyn.

Mae’r adolygiadau ar gyfer ffotograffwyr ac artistiaid sydd â phrofiad proffesiynol presennol, a’r rhai sy’n chwilio am adborth ar rannu eu gwaith gyda chynulleidfaoedd newydd. Dydy’r cyfle yma ddim ar gael i fyfyrwyr na phobl sydd mewn addysg lawn amser.

Does dim rhaid i chi rannu prosiect gorffenedig. Gallech ddangos gwaith sydd ar y gweill a deunydd ymchwil sy’n archwilio syniadau yn hytrach na chanlyniadau, ond rhaid golygu hyn i 10 delwedd sy’n dangos eich pwyslais, eich diddordeb neu’ch gwaith gorau.

Golygwch yn ofalus i gael y gorau o’ch amser – bydd eich prosiect yn cael ei adolygu ar gryfder y gyfres gyfan, nid fel lluniau unigol.

Dewiswch eich adolygydd drwy brynu tocyn am ddim ar Eventbrite. Yna byddwch yn cael eich cyfeirio at ddolen calendr unigryw i chi, lle gallwch ddewis eich slot amser dewisol.

Caiff adolygwyr a slotiau amser eu dyrannu ar sail y cyntaf i’r felin.
