Personal Statement:
I have recently completed an HND Photography Course at The City of Bristol College. The area of photography has become both a hobby and something that I would like to follow as a career. I have used a wide range of photography equipment and media that has given me a sound knowledge base in this area. My work can be seen on my web site that address of which you can find above. I have more recently been photographing bands when they are in performance and my work has been published in the local DV8 magazine. I get a great deal of enjoyment from photography and this has led me to meet and interact with a wide range of people. I have also been involved in the publication process via DV8 magazine in Bristol.

While studying I have used a wide range of cameras from compact digital cameras to digital SLR cameras as well as 35mm to large format cameras in and out of the studio. To follow these processes I have also learnt a range of traditional and modern techniques to use with the cameras and editing processes.
