I have always been creative since I can remember and loved to paint and draw, it is in my genes and what I feel I was born to do. I then came across technology and put the two together as photography is a form or art. In 2006 I found my new love which was film photography.

At University I did my first 2 years continuing the media module photography along with other modules. But in my third year I specialised and decided to focus on Single Camera. I carried out various roles but found my passion and enthusiasm to rise when I took on the role of Camera Operator and DoP within production of short films. I found that I love being behind the camera and seeing all the exciting visuals, which only YOU, the person who has control over the camera gets the privilege to see FIRST and be in control of creating these. We used Canon DSLRs to film the short films, below you can see my camera work in action. 

I had already been doing some photography work for free during 3rd year at uni to help build up my portfolio. After LSM, I started up in August 2013 once I moved back home to Cambridgshire / Bedfordshire – I am not sure how it all fell into place after this but it just happened like it was meant to be…. unconsciously! However, I knew I had a passion and lots of love for the camera. I am now slowly building up my small business and hope to continue and grow this over the years and start promoting videography, too. This is what makes my brain and heart tick.

I am also working full time as an account executive which has given me my first office based experience and have been able to use my photography skills also within the role, however I hope to move into marketing or more a media related role in the near future or be able to do my photography full time. I am highly motivated and driven to achieve and prove people wrong who say “university is pointless”!

Your hardest times often lead to the greatest moments of your life.
