Nikki, Bella and Bradley

Hey,

So today was a wonderful day with my two lovely friends Nikki and Bella, and Bella's horse, Bradley!

I love having a shoot with Nikki and Bella when I come home - and today's shoot was extra special because Bradley was there too!

Project one!

Hey everyone,

During my last year at University, I hope to blog about my experiences/planning/photoshoots/behind the scenes, so that not only do I have something online to look back on but hopefully you find it interesting too!

I've started to gather and finalise my ideas for my first project of the year. It has to be suitable for an exhibition, and my aim is to have some beautiful large prints to show off my work!

My boyfriend was a major help with this idea and I am so thankful for him, he is my inspiration and is amazing to talk to and expand ideas!

I've started a few new Pinterest boards, so that I can add to them, as I find pieces of inspiration such as make up ideas, hair, styling and props!

I am so excited for this year and cannot wait to show the work I produce!

Third and final year

Hey everyone,

I just want to reflect back on my time at University, as I start my third and final year of my degree. The past two years of my life have flown by and I have mostly enjoyed every minute!

There have been some hard times with my degree, but it has been (and will be) completely worth it. Photography is my biggest passion in life and I can't wait to finish this year to fully immerse myself in a full-time career.

My first year at University was a bit of a culture shock! My boyfriend and I were living alone for the first time, I had just finished a gap year and had gotten used to not being in education and I finally got to full concentrate on what I wanted to do...Photography!

My favourite project from that year had to be the "Beautiful People" project. I finally managed to get into the studio, (which I loved doing while I was in Sixth Form) and gain more experience and confidence!

We also completed a project entitled, "Workers" and for this I picked my boyfriend's place of work, the LPAC!

In pretty much a blink the first year was over and then I was onto my second year. This was even better than my first year a University. My lovely boyfriend and I moved into our first proper flat, away from student accommodation and the projects we were given had even more scope to be changed to suit our interests and what we wanted to do after University.

Narrative was the first brief given to us. What a big topic it was! I chose to photograph a narrative based on an abandoned bride. This was probably my biggest challenge to date, as I set a goal pretty high in my head and didn't quite reach it. However this was a good thing, because I learnt from it and will take that on with me into this coming year. 

My complete and utter favourite project so far, has to be the documentary project. I based it all around weddings (and you can find out more about it, if you read back on my blog!) I did well in this project and I am very proud of it. I put a lot of myself into it and so much passion and that paid off!

It truly confirmed to me that wedding photography is what I want to do. Of course I am open to other types of photography (and I will be exploring that this year) but weddings are beautiful, happy and wonderful occasions that I love being a part of.

So that was my first two years of University. I cannot wait to get stuck into my work this year and I am sure it will appear on my blog.

This is the year to push myself. To do big things. To live and breathe photography, because that is what I love.

Nikki...again!

Hey everyone,

Today's post features my lovely friend Nikki, again! It's become a sort of tradition to meet up each time we are both back in Norwich for our summer holiday and for me to take photographs of her.

This stemmed from me always using her as one of my models for my A Level photography work. However it was nice this time not to make her dress up/put a lot of make-up on/be part of an odd idea I had for one of my projects.

This photograph is just her.

My friend.

Nikki.

Catch up

Hey everyone,

Here I am posting another post about how I haven't blogged in ages...sorry!!

But just a quick catch up about my summer, now that it is winding down and beginning to get cold outside.

As from my last post, I have been working again this summer, but tomorrow is my last day at work, I just can't believe how quickly it has gone, so thank you to Holly for having me back.

But the most exciting thing about my summer was getting to go to a very important place to my boyfriend (and of course his family too) and that was Hungary. My boyfriend was born and lived there before moving to England, and I'm glad he did, because I got to meet him! Anyway, Hungary was beautiful and made me appreciate my boyfriend and his background. I felt so blessed to be able to share this with him and I cannot wait to go back next year.

I have also been planning projects for my final (!) year at university, but also my dissertation, so don't be surprised if a lot of posts pop up with details about those things, as I have so many ideas that I want to make a reality.

And finally, I turned 21!

So that's it for our quick catch up, I'll hopefully post again really soon, but until then you can find me on my boyfriend's blog, But You Didn't Hear it From Us.

Where have I been!?

Hello everyone!

It's been such a long time since I've blogged any of my photography, naughty naughty!

However I am photographing Keeley and Dean's wedding on Saturday, so I am sure I will feature that on here as a sneak peek for them!

But in other news, I am back home in Norwich, which is lovely as I have been catching up with friends, but I am also back working at House of Fraser! Luckily I am not overloading myself with work, so I do have time to complete the shoots I want before I go back to University in September.

The next big shoot, after the wedding of course, will be with Bella and her friend's horse! Which I am really looking forward to. I'm even going to be making the dress that she is wearing, and I'll be sure to blog about it when it happens!

But until then you can still catch me on my lovely boyfriend's blog, But You Didn't Hear It From Us
