About
My belief is that we are all artists at heart and that creating is integral to a fulfilling life, but often we don’t have the opportunity to explore our gifts. I was lucky enough to discover photography in my mid-20s inspired by my Dad, who always took great photos, my Mum, who has a wonderful eye for colour and light and some ex “flames” who are photographers (you know who you are)! I was gifted a little book on travel photography which listed all the camera settings under each photo that I studied diligently and whilst working briefly at my local Art College, took a short course in digital photography. Other than that, I had no formal training or mentorship and have learnt everything I know by just doing it. I had two other careers before I took a leap of faith and turned my hobby into a profession in 2011 and have been working as an editorial and commercial photographer ever since. Past clients include Condé Nast Traveller, SUITCASE Magazine, MilK Decoration Magazine, Etsy, Soho Home and Design Hotels amongst others.
Being self-taught is not without its many challenges but my passion for the craft remains and I continue to learn, every day! Photography has opened up my world in ways I could never have imagined or experienced in my 9-5. I’ve met some fascinating people and seen some incredible places through it.
Now I feel called to share that knowledge, to offer a short (5 week) course in digital photography similar to the one I started with. We will cover camera settings, ethics of photography, creative photography (finding your style) and some basic Lightroom and Photoshop techniques.
As the industry (like many others) lacks representation, I would like to make this accessible to as many people as possible, therefore I will be offering scholarships each term for those in need. Whether you want to begin a career in photography or just a new hobby, I offer these classes as a way to share knowledge, encourage creativity and in the hope of making something that can feel overwhelming and intimidating fun, inspiring and accessible.
I look forward to meeting you!
