This piece is an abstract image working with the traditional photography method of using film. My inspiration was Anna Akins because she was one of the first female photographers and as a female interested in photography myself, this makes me feel proud that women were welcomed into the industry.

What have I learnt from this course?

During my course I have learnt that there are a lot of different camera techniques you have to know, how to function a camera and it’s settings, also all the different ways you can take a photo using lighting in the studio such as, the butterfly lighting, split lighting, Rembrandt lighting and many more.

What is my advice for anyone joining the course?

I would say make your work the best it can be. Always try your best to achieve a higher grade. If you think you can do something else, then take the risk to do it! I will be progressing onto full time employment after completing the course.
