About me

Professional experience and successful academic record in Photography. I believe I possess the skills, qualifications and vital experience necessary in many projects.

I have recently completed an HND in Photography to complement my NQ, which has given me the necessary skills to become a competent and creative photographer. During my time at college, I occasionally, worked as an assistant photographer and was also involved in various college ceremonies, which helped me greatly in understanding the working atmosphere and in developing the necessary people skills.

I consider myself to be a responsible person with excellent attention to detail and strong communication skills. I was the assistant manager of a retail store, which required me to have exceptional organizational skills to manage the store effectively.

A responsible, organised, ambitious and motivated individual with a good educational background, customer service experience, and excellent photography knowledge and skills. Enjoys working both as part of a team, and as an individual, hardworking, creative and skilled in problem solving, good communications skills, adaptable and keen to take on new tasks and learn new skills.
