About me
I have recently completed (June 2016) a joint honours degree in Fine Art and History of Art at Reading University and achieved a 2:1. Reading University is an institution that focuses on contemporary art practice and has allowed me to understand the modern aspects of artworks and culture. Over the past three years I have helped curate and exhibited my own artwork in London, Essex and Reading. This experience has allowed me to have a deeper understanding of how to work within a professional environment to create a show and promote different styles of work. I also have experience of assisting the fashion and editorial photographer, John Offenbach and completed an internship with Lo and Behold Productions, a boutique creative agency that allowed me to work with Dean Chalkey on shoots with Hush Puppies and Jocks and Nerds. I recently was a stylist assistant to Daniel Radcliffe for GQ Brazil and L'Homme Netherlands, which the publications will be out at the end of November 2017. Along with being a Fashion Week intern to the company, The Apartment.

  • Fashion Focused
    Fashion FocusedThis project is focused more on fashion photography, unlike my other photographic works I have not included a surreal background and used derelict and rural areas in London to capture the beauty of the clothes. I'm in these photos and have used a tripod with my camera on shutter speed to capture these images.
