About
I am currently in my third year at Manchester School of Art, completing a degree in BA Photography. I am excited to take my first step into the film industry, as my ultimate goal is to become a film stills photographer. Portraiture and staged photography is where I concentrate my practice with a love for creating narrative within my imagery. I often work closely alongside film students on collaborative projects and have photographed on some small-scale film, advert and music video sets.

Experience

Stills Photographer
I shot stills on a small-scale short film with an upcoming production company. Whilst it was a small and unpaid job, I did gain some experience with film set lighting and working with the film crew.

BA degree Photography
I am in my third year at Manchester Metropolitan University, studying a BA in Photography. It has given me the chance to meet so many new people and work with film students, giving me a taste of the industry. I have learnt lots about lighting and cameras from BA Photography, as well working on locations and in the studio.
