About CHAI Book Photography

There's this wickedly awesome book that's being put together by a group of people in Calgary. This project is running under CHAI, the Calgary Housing Action Initiative. This book is going to include articles, personal stories, contact info, stats, etc, all regarding the housing crisis in Calgary.

Why are we/they doing this? Because "[They] perceive a lack of informational tools regarding the housing crisis in Calgary. [They] aim to produce a book, which will inform the public of the issue."

Now, what does a book have to do with pictures? Photos! Photos help bring things to life, and add emotion to a piece of writing. This is where the group comes in. This group is a place for photos you've taken(or are going to take, hint, hint) that have something to do with the housing crisis. By submitting your picture here, you are potentially contributing to the book. I.e: Don't post your pictures here if you're not alright with them being used.

Secondly, please, please, please, don't post pictures of people unless they have signed a model release form. Being sued and taken to court is not a good thing, ne?

Lastly, the pictures must be taken in Calgary.

That is all! Post away!
