SLR Lounge is a photography education website founded in 2008 by Pye Jirsa and Chris Lin of Lin & Jirsa Photography. What started as a way to share real-world photography knowledge has grown into one of the most trusted resources for photographers at every level, covering camera and lens reviews, lighting education, posing, business, and post-production.

Our content is written and reviewed by working photographers — people who shoot weddings, portraits, landscapes, and commercial work professionally. That real-world experience is the foundation of everything we publish.
