About me

Dear sir/madam,

My name is Jordan Taylor and I am currently studying a Foundation diploma in Art and Design where I have speacilised in the subject Fine Art. I am very interested in photography as well as digital retouching and I am currently looking for a full time job for when I finish my course in May.

I am very passionate about photography and many people have described me as a 'young, enthusiastic person who has a flair for composition'. In the past two years I have done photo shoots with family and friends to build up my portfolio and experience as well as photographing two weddings and being the main photographer for two charitable events. I have used my bedroom as a studio as well as venturing outdoors. So far I feel that I have accomplished a lot in such a short space of time. I have created specially designed photos, portraits of children, couples and families; however I am craving to learn more from experienced people.

I currently work part time at a local design company named Transform Your Images. I have been here nearly two years and within this time I have learnt how to be precise and retouch images to the best of my ability; I feel that this experience has given me the skills to be an excellent retoucher using Photoshop.

I am a friendly person who is willing to learn new things and build up my experience. I am a hard working and sociable person who alongside university has gained experience in customer services, communication and confidence within my part time job mentioned above. I live in Rochester and have a full driving license.

To me photography is art. It is a way to express my feelings towards the society we live in and the beauty that surrounds us. A photograph captures the smallest of memories that are soon after forgotten; it is a record of our living, without it we would be invisible. To me photography is a way to remember. Because of this, I cannot see myself doing anything else.

Many Thanks, Jordan Taylor
