Josh
Photography L3

I became passionate about photography during my final years at secondary school. I eventually want to run my own business and travel to different places to take photos. This year we’ve had guest speakers visit from different universities to talk about careers in the sector. After my course I will be attending the University of Cumbria to study Photography.

Since starting the Photography course I have become more confident in myself and my work, as well as becoming more vocal in discussions. John is an amazing tutor. He always makes sure that everybody knows what they are doing, as well as pushing people to the best of their abilities. The course has given me the opportunity to explore different areas of studio, darkroom and location photography as well as working with a range of different equipment.

Students will go on regular field trips to take photographs. Previous visits have included York, Whitby, Newcastle, the Lake District, South Lakes Safari Park, Saltburn, Yorkshire Sculpture Park and Beamish Museum. On our Level 2 course you will go on a 3-day photography/team building trip to places such as Edinburgh or The Lake District. On Level 3 you will go on a 3-day trip to The National Photography Show in Birmingham to meet industry experts and see the latest innovations in photography. Students will also work with a range of external partners on different projects.
