Gaia Photos Offers Views Of The World From Many Unique Viewpoints

Many of you have seen my blog posts introducing you to guest photographers from GAIA PHOTOS and you may be asking yourself who are these people and can I join the group?
Gaia is a web platform showcasing the work of leading photojournalists and new talents from around the world. On the web site, our members are constantly presenting some of their recent work, allowing everyone to keep up to date with great new photo features.
Started 6 months ago, Gaia now has 41 members and over 50 features from our 6 regions of the world. Basically, Gaia is a multi-user blog with a fancy front page tuned for photographic content. In the style of a web magazine
our idea is that, by showing our work together, we can provide a single reference point for photo editors to find new and interesting work in the niche field we are focusing on: social, humanitarian and environmental issues.
Busy photo editors hardly have time to keep up to date with hundreds of individual photojournalism web sites, checking now and then only to see there's nothing new. With Gaia, that’s not so! New work is constantly ticking in from around the world and being presented on the site.
Gaia connects its photographers with each other, our audience and hopefully from time to time, new clients. Perhaps some time down the road, we will do some collaborative projects together, providing unique global coverage about the important issues of our times.
In challenging times like these, we feel there are many advantages of networking and building up a brand larger than any single one of us. The internet presents challenges and opportunities we can’t ignore and Gaia Photos is all about great visual storytelling, the cornerstone of our profession.
We invite you all to have a look from time to time and perhaps find new inspiration, insight and appreciation of the enormous diversity of our world.
We are open for new members, especially in areas of the world where we aren’t fully represented yet, including Africa, South America and the Middle East.
If you are interested in membership – and if you are an actively working (freelance) photojournalist who works on social, humanitarian and environmental issues, you are welcome to apply for membership! Please take a look at the site for further details:

Please note we are quite selective about members. Gaia Photos is not a new flickr or a citizen journalism project but rather, a professional network.
