I am 19 and have just finished studying foundation art and design. In September I am going to Edinburgh College of Art to study Visual Communication (Photography).
I have learned that experimentation is key. I adore shooting film whether it be 6x6, 4x5 or 35mm. The darkroom process is wonderful but I love digital too.
There are beautiful things everywhere in life, you just need to know how to look and not be surprised when you find it in unlikely places.
