2020: A Year of New Opportunities & Great New Talents

A tough year! Also it was tough on Photopia and its team too. But we created some new opportunities out of the rough days to make the photography education available virtually while hosting many rising talents in our studio in-person (keeping the social distancing).

PHOTOGRAPHY SCHOOL:

Photopia Photography School offered a hybrid of online and in-person education. And many thanks to the 24 generous speakers who gave free photography and cinematography education throughout the quarantine on Photopia's online platforms. We can not thank you enough.

PHOTOPIA STUDIO:

Thank you Egyptian fashion designers, photographers, stylists and all ;)

The local fashion brands were a whole new discovery for us in 2020. This tough year revealed young fighters in the fashion industry in Egypt....all homegrown brands whom we witnessed (from inside our studio) grow over the past few months were brilliantly able to sustain through selling their products online. We are so proud to host them at our studio. Your passion for your brands made Photopia survive this year. Thank you talented designers!
