Some new stuff

Well, not really new. Just not-seen-before stuff. The first images are of some blind school children in Coventry. The series was shot on 5x4 negative and unfortunately got ruined in the developer, although it does make for interesting images; the ones that are salvageable at least. Some other images from the Blind Ambition shoots below.

Exhibition Review!

Right so it's time for a long overdue post regarding the exhibition we put on in May. It went better than I think any of us expected it to, it was pretty much rammed full for the whole duration of the opening night. All £900+ of drink was consumed, no doubt helping to cure the anxiousness we all felt as it opened. The party atmosphere and the excellent work on show ensured everyone had a good time. I'd like to thank everyone who attended, especially the guys who I invited and I hope you all enjoyed it. It was good seeing you.

Since then I've turned 23, graduated with a first class honours degree and moved back to Bristol, hence the delay in getting this blog post up. I'm actively seeking any photography / retouching / assisting jobs at the moment, so if anyone has anything or knows anyone then send me a message please! My ambition is to shoot some editorial portraiture work, as well as trying to assist some working editorial / advertising photographers. I'm also looking to see if any magazines or newspapers are interested in publishing my Blind Ambition project. I have another project which is still in ideas stage as well which I'm going to start soon.

Below are a few photos of my exhibition. I was very pleased with how it all came together, and I think it worked better than I anticipated!

A couple of shout outs to people that helped me get this together - all of these places come highly recommended and I'll be using them in the future.

Exhibition prints were done by http://www.genesis-digital.net/
Portfolio prints from http://www.proamimaging.com/ - ridiculous service and prices. Highly recommended.
