About Us

To be the best, friendliest and most fun photography site on the web.

TalkRocket is the brainchild of Jonathan Ryan - one of the most successful photographers in Kent. You can see plenty of his photographs on MyWeddingStory (actually there are about 10 thousand of his pictures on YourWeddingStory) and if you’re getting married those are great sites to check. But this site isn’t about that - it’s about having fun.

You’ll find all the latest news, reviews and information here. But honestly, you could get your photography news anywhere. What you’ll get here is comment on the news. You could also go to dozens of sites for reviews (and that’s really not a bad idea - shop around) but here you’ll get professional reviews by a professional photographer and journalist.

Best of all we have tutorials. These are either written by Jonathan or carefully selected contributors and cover all sorts of topics from photography to Photoshop, from Lightroom to choosing a camera, from taking your very first picture to selling your images time and again. learn with us, grow with us and most of all have fun with us.

Get involved
See that little comment box at the bottom of each post? Use it. Please. All comments are moderated but that’s just to stop spam and silliness. If you like an article then tell us (and even better if you’re a blogger then tell everyone!) but if you don’t like it or you disagree or you think it’s just stupid then tell us. As long as your comment is truthful and not intended to hurt others then you’ll see it up here.

Soon we’ll be adding a forum and that will be all kinds of fun.

But not as much fun as the gallery we’ve got coming.

But all in good time. Let’s get a solid site together with great content before adding the frills you can get anywhere.
