Our audience and the amount of Members is growing slowly but surely. The community is truly generous for their support and we feel we need to give back even more.
Getting deeper into meaningful stories
Last week we started approaching our authors with short interviews to give insights about their stories, particular projects, and work overall. These interviews will settle in the Interviews with Authors category.

The membership fee is $6 only and we need your support
We built mnngful for all those who are curious, which means that our goal is to reach readers beyond the photography community.
We’re working hard on promotion to achieve this goal. It implies some tech cost and a minimum marketing budget to break through social network algorithms.
Every photographer’s work should be paid for, and we stick to this idea. The fee is $50 at this moment. It could look not serious for some experienced photographers, but we focus on supporting anyone at any stage of their journey. And, still, this is better than nothing.
We pay writers.
We fund the project from our own “pocket” money: no sponsors (yet), no annoying advertising.
I’m far from rich and have almost no savings or passive income.
What I have is a huge experience in product development & marketing strategy that helps me to earn some money and all the necessary skills to build platforms, create content, get it promoted.
Here, by investing my time, skill, and funds into building something meaningful for myself, and, I hope, for others, I find the balance and relief.
While my job consumes a vast amount of my time every day, the biggest part of my heart and mind is with my little family and here, somewhere around photography and these projects.
