Photography...
I am a self taught photographer. Photography became my passion in 2008 after taking pictures for BBC Kent, I had my name mentioned on the TV and on the Radio. After receiving a Canon DSLR as a gift in 2009, I has been involved in a variety of projects, from photographing local performances at The Sinden Theatre, live music gigs/events, photoshoots for Nextinct.
I photograph a range of subjects, from, landscapes to portraits, to macros and even photograph at sporting events, such as; British Touring Cars and British Superbikes.
In August 2011, I carried out a photoshoot of the band called the Virgin Soldiers. The location for this was in Tunbridge Wells, Kent.
The band saw my photography portfolio on Flickr and this how they came into contact with me.
As well as photographing the band, I was involved within their promoting and the re-branding of their website. During my time working for the band, I had the opportunity to act as a cameraman, meet their manager and their web and graphic designers; and work alongside them.
I introduced the band to university friend called Rose Sturdy. At the time, she was studying illustration. She was tasked with making each band member as a puppet in aid for a music video and re-modelling the band’s image.
Finally, Just before I left, to go back to my studies at university, I greatly accepted the opportunity to help them out backstage when they supported McFly.
In March 2012, I was asked to carry out a photoshoot of the cast of, ‘Alice In Wonderland’. The photographs from the shoot were used in the promotion and advertising of the performance that took place on Friday the 11th 2012, in Folkestone.
