I am a student photographer in the 2nd year of my HND based at Edinburgh College. I have enjoyed all aspects of photography so far with my favourites being landscape and wildlife. In June this year I was second shooter for my first wedding which taught me a lot of skills in working with many people at one time, as well as working under time constraints and various different lighting conditions.
Following my HND I plan to progress to the BA, continuing with my studies at Edinburgh College and then on to my career as a freelance photographer.
