Why I’m Venturing into the World of Blogging

Embarking on this blogging journey isn’t just about sharing my photography—it’s about bridging a gap I’ve noticed in the industry. As a recent graduate from Norwich University of the Arts with a BA in Photography, I bring a fresh perspective to the table. I’ve realised there’s a lack of accessible resources for new and aspiring commercial photographers, and I aim to change that…. Posted below are some of the images made in the final year of University, just as I was entering the world of professional photography.

Through my blog, I want to offer real insights into the world of commercial photography. From navigating the transition from university to the professional realm to understanding the nuances of client expectations, I’ll share my experiences, successes, and even failures. It’s about providing a roadmap for those just starting out—a guide I wish I had when I was beginning my journey.

With a current and unique perspective on the photography landscape, I’ll delve into topics like industry trends, emerging technologies, and the business side of photography. Whether it’s discussing the impact of social media on branding or demystifying the intricacies of licensing and copyright, I’m here to offer practical advice and actionable tips.

Moreover, I want to foster a sense of community among fellow photographers. By sharing my insights and inviting discussions, I hope to create a space where we can learn from each other, exchange ideas, and support one another on our respective journeys.
