Well it’s been a while folks, again accept my apologies for this, it wasn’t planned I can assure you all. As many of you know writing this blog is part of my actual course, I could easily just ignore the last few weeks and write about my class work, but I’d be lying as aveContinueContinue reading “2018 Can Just do one.”

During my first college interview nearly 3 years ago I was asked by Lewis why I wanted to become a photographer. I explained my reasons and hoped that I didn’t sound stupid.

At times I actually cringe at my errors, faults, and pants images. Sometime I’m mildly happy butContinueContinue reading “Wrong side of the camera”

I actually took a breather over the holiday week and a bit, thinking about photogrpahy, doing it and working on images fills my head and life 24/7. I tried toContinueContinue reading “I’m Back”

Another week has been and gone with the workload remaining constant, another 2 assignments were due this week. Firstly Image Editing outcome 1, now this was a slog of an assessment. Having to watch 10 YouTube videos of advanced image editing on photoshop, then bullet point the main stages with screenshots on a word doc.ContinueContinue reading “Another due date double header”

At times over the last few weeks I have needed to stop and just breathe, I feel I just need to be doing something as long as it’s photography based I don’t want to get behind. As usual it has been another mad mental week in my photography life, I’m just trying to take everyContinueContinue reading “Where does time go ?”
