Before digital technology has transformed photography into something new and very different from what we understand it to be today there are accounts to be told by some of the great practitioners of the medium and by the many talented individuals who have found photography capable of challenging notions, revealing truths, and enriching people’s lives with insight, knowledge and at times great humour.These are the earliest days in the life of this project but the hope is that over time Photo Histories will become a home for entertaining and thought provoking stories about photography and a vehicle that, by looking into the past with a spirit of enquiry, might begin to help us map some sort of path into the uncertain future of the medium.If that seems too weighty, we will also recount some of the great photographer’s tales – which we are calling Photo Histories – that used to be told over lightboxes, in darkrooms and in the cafés, pubs and bars of the world – places where photographers used to gather but so rarely have the opportunity to do so today.
