About me
Born and raised in SW London since '98. I am a recent graduate from Nottingham Trent University with a first class degree in photography and a CPP certified freelance photographer for 5+ years. I am an efficient and highly motivated individual looking to progress my career in the media and photographic industry.
With a strong passion for photography and film, I have freelanced projects documenting culture, music, fashion and societal topics gaining recognition from companies such as Take More Photos and the Dots. Moreover, I am highly knowledgable on photographical softwares such as Photoshop, Lightroom and Capture One having constantly used them throughout my education and career as well as Microsoft programmes such as Word, excel and PowerPoint. I'm efficient in studio and continuous lighting and I have a passion for building relationships with those I work with to create connections and a positive work environment. Having done photographical essays and image analysis throughout my university experience, gaining the dissertation award, I have experience in research, academic writing and contextualising imagery. Furthermore, I completed projects, assignments and tasks throughout my education and career, I have become accustomed to producing high quality work under pressure and dealing with large volumes of work and tasks.
Over 5 years of experience in the media industry having done work experience with companies such as Sky and North One TV, gaining knowledge in data inputting, post production and film analysis. I also have a vast amount of knowledge in customer service having worked in retail, hospitality and with photography clients. I feel as though my experience and drive would be valued in a creative work environment as I am determined to produce work to an industry standard.
With experience in live photography, having photographed gigs for Hospital Records and London in Stereo, I have experience in low light and fast pace photography, capturing every aspect of a show to get the images requested from the client. I also have experience shooting weddings, having spent the summer of 2019 working with wedding photographers capture the details and important moments of the day. Although this isn't a field I'd like to go pursue, I learnt a lot of technical skills from the experience which I could bring to any photographical job.
I am a confident and highly motivated individual whose skills and strengths can add significant value into a creative industry and company. I am looking for work and experience to help me progress into my career.
