DIG - LRPS Support Group

About the Digital Imaging Group's LRPS Support Group!

Now that the RPS Distinctions team have organised the new LRPS processes and submissions, with everything being online, the DI Committee felt that we should support our members by offering an LRPS Support Group. This offers a facilitated online group for all DI members who are working towards their Licentiateship, no matter where they are on the journey.

The group has proven to be extremely popular and obviously there are only so many members that we can help all at once. Until such time as a few members are successful in gaining their LRPS and leave the group, we are offering a waiting list. As spaces become available we will invite members on a first come, first served, basis.

If you would like to go on to the LRPS Support Group waiting list, please contact us via DISupportGroup@rps.org. This group is strictly for DI members only.

There is a lot of very useful information on the main RPS Distinctions pages https://rps.org/qualifications/licentiate. We would recommend you read this and watch the videos.

Marie-Ange Bouchard

"Whether it’s shooting with an iPhone or using a mirrorless camera with vintage lenses, I’m always exploring new ways to capture the world around me. I have a particular passion for street and macro photography, though I admire all genres of photographic work.

"On a more formal note, I hold an ARPS, a CPAGB, and a BPE1. I am a camera club judge and I’ve also been involved in assessing potential judges for the Surrey Photographic Association. Previously, I served as Treasurer and Webmaster for the RPS South East region and also spent four years on the Licentiateship Distinction panel. It is always my pleasure to help and support others on their photographic journey."

"I enjoy all forms of photography and love to experiment with different genres and am never happier than when photographing out of my comfort zone. My main interests lie in wildlife and landscapes, which I have been fortunate enough to combine with my travels around the world.

"I am a club photographer and have been President of my local club in North East Manchester. Currently I am Vice President and webmaster. Besides being a judge for competitions at my club I also give talks on a variety of subjects to clubs in the North West Region.

"In 2010 I was successful in achieving a Licentiateship and I am also a CPAGB. I frequently assist individuals who are working towards Award schemes, so I am looking forward to facilitating the LRPS Support Group."
