Each photograph reflects my creative ability and one I have spent a lot of time and effort producing. They have been carefully selected to present the best of my photographic abilities and showcase the work I enjoy producing. The images I have chosen are from a range of course assignments and personal projects. During my course I have completed many interesting and challenging assignments and have included some of the final images in my submission.
Through my present studies I have been taught a broad range of photographic skills and I am constantly learning and developing new ways of approaching subject matters and mediums of photography. I enjoy many aspects of photography, in particular documentary work, portraiture and shooting on location. I also enjoy experimenting with both film and digital formats. Many photographers influence my work and inspire me to pursue a career in photography. A few I particularly admire include; Jessica Hilltout, Richard Avedon, Annie Leibovitz, Tim Walker, Sally Mann and Anton Corbijn, each for their unique style and imagery.
In my spare time I enjoy shooting new personal projects at every available opportunity, developing my skills using both digital editing software and processing rolls of film. I also spend my time searching through charity shops for new and unusual bargains – often the best places for finding photography books and old cameras - and planning new travels. Travel is one of my other passions and often leads to new projects and photographs I can create. In the future I am hoping to combine the skills I will learn through photography with new places I hope to travel to, exploring and creating documentary work.
Over the past few years, I feel my knowledge and skills have been enhanced a great deal and I look forward to continuing to explore my passion for photography at degree level.
