This week, the Your Shot community reached a milestone of one million registered users in our history as a community. That’s incredible. Over the course of almost a decade as an online platform, one million photographers came through our doors. If even only for a little bit or to stay, this community has been thriving world-wide through the passion for photography since day one.

We asked the community what brought you to Your Shot in honor of this milestone. Their answers didn’t disappoint. I read stories of friendship, a hunger to learn and improve their craft, and an undeniable love for photography. The reoccurring vein at the core of almost every answer was passion.
