Just throwing a thought out there to discuss WMAu has for the last few years run an equipment support program where by photographers can get an incentive to provide photographs through funds to help with the purchase of new/updated equipment. A number of people including myself have availed ourselves of the assistance,
What I was thinking about is could we encourage greater collaboration through a register of local photographers who would be willing to fulfill requests for specific images. WMAu could support this program by enabling the photographers to have an approved yearly budget say $100 each to cover transport costs for such requests, with out the need to go to the committee for small costs. These photographers could also be accredited WMAu photographers who could apply for access to events under a media accreditation like was organised for the Avalon airshow.
