Welsh documentary photographer Robert Law, is the host of a podcast series called The Compact Camera Podcast. The podcast was created during the COVID-19 lockdowns and delves into contemporary photography in Wales, the UK, and beyond. The series takes the form of a conversation between two photo enthusiasts and is meant to be a casual and easy-to-digest chat about the latest developments in the photography world.

Listeners can expect to hear about calls for entry, new photo books, and exhibitions, as well as in-depth conversations with fellow photographers.¹ The podcast promises to be a great resource for anyone looking to keep up-to-date with the latest developments in the world of photography, while also providing an opportunity to connect with like-minded enthusiasts.

Robert Law is also the founder of The North Wales Project, which aims to encourage and showcase the best documentary photography in the region. His experience as a mentor and the lessons he's learned in his own photography practice have informed his approach to the podcast, which is designed to provide insight and inspiration to both established and aspiring photographers.

In his photography practice, Robert Law is drawn to both rural and urban environments, and he has a keen eye for capturing the people who inhabit them. He has been exhibiting and publishing his work nationally, and was shortlisted for Portrait of Britain 2019 and the British Photography Awards 2019.
