Incident Room

Today was spent shooting for my project Incident Room. This was left fairly open and I made use of local public house the Town Wall, being given reign of the downstairs bar.  Very pleased with the results, and very thankful to my cast for doing me so proud!  This is one image from the shoot, virtually unedited, so many to follow!

FDA Photography Year Two

So I am now a half term into my degree course.  This entails more challenging projects as well as work placement.  After a rocky start to the year I now feel well and truly able to settle into my work and look to the future with a little more decisiveness.

My primary aim this year is to address my own personal problems and ensure they do not overlap into my work, as well as to do everything to the best of my ability.  It is my aim to find a placement within a press or gallery setting - my course has enabled me to realise the areas of the industry I am interested in ( social and political commentary ) and those I am not ( fashion, wedding, commercial photography ).  I hope this will enable me to follow my own interests within both my course and personal work.

Next module - Incident Room.  Working as a group presents its own challenges and benefits so it will be interesting to see how this progresses.

Cresswell Pele Tower

Sunday was spent exploring Cresswell Tower, which is rarely opens to the public and held an open day.  Well worth the trip, and stunning views.




It must be said however the stairs are quite terrifying!

Tyne Theatre

Throughout summer, I am six other photographers spent some hours documenting the interior and exterior of the Tyne Theatre in Newcastle, which ended in an exhibition in September prior to the first performance of 'Pirates of Penzance'.  Beautiful building and wonderful project to work on... Here is a selection of my work from this.



The original fittings were all intact and made for some lovely photo opportunities..
