The main thing about photography, that most of people is not aware of, is that it is addictive. Usually it starts as a hobby, everyone sees it as a great option to pass the time and collect memories. But the further you go, the more likely is that you will see the world through your camera. Taking pictures stops being just an activity and becomes style of life. My story is very much like that. I got part time job as a photographer for the website tillate.it in Italy Campania. My work was focused on documenting concerts, club parties and any other crazy event that was worth our attention. As I was getting more experience I decided to take up on new challenges. I started photo shooting for fashion companies and websites for advertising purposes. My next step was wedding photography. I was excited to focus on brining up different emotions in my pictures and working in a different environment. I believe that this short summary of my experience can prove to you that I am hard working person that is not afraid of challenges. In my view, we only grow when we go out of our comfort zone. Which is why, I am more than willing to participate in new projects. Currently, to improve my skills I am doing a course of advanced photography.

I started to have an interest in photography when I lived in Spain, at the time I was only 12 years old and buying a DSLR was quite pricey, so to begin with I used a simple point and shoot and tried my best. As I got older there wasn't really any courses in any colleges or schools in my area, they didn't really have the funds to kit students out with camera's and the appropriate equipment, so I pleaded my father If I could move back to the UK. I am now in my second year of college studying Film and Media Production at the Brit School of Performing Arts and Technology, I have A* grades both in GCSE Media and Photography and I have recently been accredited with a Distinction in AS Photography. I am confident with using Digital and 35mm set-ups and I am currently delving into 120 film too. During my AS course I was taught how to set up lighting for studio shoots and to use Lightroom and Photoshop for retouching purposes. Now I am looking to get my foot into the door as I will be finishing college soon and university doesn't sound ideal to me.

Currently, I am freelancing at the Big Sky studio as a studio assistant where I have experienced a very professional setting that I am proud to put in my career path. I have learned how a professional studio works with as little as six people and then jumping to twenty four people. The clients vary every day and it has taught me how to deal with various situations; taking initiative is a huge aspect of being a studio assistant. Starting the day by setting up the studio, helping with catering, cleaning and generally helping around the studio really boosted my morale. Everyone at the studio is always ready for action and help each other whenever needed. At the end of the day, I have to clear up the studio, input all details regarding the studio on to the system. As well as paperwork, I have to paint the infinity backdrop which varies in size. When the studio is all prepared for next day we call it a day and look forward to the next day with new clients and new adventure. I have been working as a Hotel Photographer from PixelHolidays at Malta, where my responsibilities lies within great customer service and excellent communication skills due to high number to tourists and hotel guests interacting with me at all times. Most of the customers are coming from all over the world; therefore, we have to make sure our communication skills are up to satisfactory level in order to make sales. Assisting photographers like Tim Flach and Alan Powdrill gave me the confidence to take matters into my own hands and resolve any issues. I am always eager towards learning new skills and improve my own at any given situations; I am also very observant, which helps me to be aware of my surroundings and adapt myself to others needs. This doesn't stop me from asking questions or do things properly by consenting other member of the experienced crew. In my final year at university, I held an exhibition at the Free Range show where I handled many different types of prints and ensured all the installation pieces were carefully wrapped and transported safely. I have been praised for my competence and patience by my tutors during any project that were handed to us e.g. hours of darkroom practice, teaching first and second years on positive film development etc.

Ive been working in the photographic industry since 2008. In that time I've held both freelance and full time positions as a photo assistant, digital operator, studio manager and production manager. I am a Phase One Certified Professional and equally experienced and capable with lighting and digital work. Before moving to London in 2015 I was based between South Africa and Germany. Over the years I have worked on projects across all genres from still life studio shoots to on location outdoor projects in difficult environments. I most enjoy advertising, portraiture, lifestyle, travel and documentary work. I'm can provide a list of references on request. This is summary of the equipment I have most experience with: CAMERA: Phase One (Certified Professional). Hasselblad. Canon. Nikon. Sony. Mamiya. Pentax DIGITAL: Capture One (Certified Professional). Lightroom. Photoshop. Bridge. Mac OS. Wacom graphics tablet LIGHTING: Strobe lighting including Profoto. Broncolor. Briese. Elinchrom? Constant lighting including HMI. Tungsten. Kino flow. LED's. Dedo light? EQUIPMENT RENTAL: I can provide a digital capture location kit including: Macbook Pro Retina. Eizo Monitor. Workcase + Tripod. Hyperjuice Battery. Tether cables. Wacom graphics tablet. I also have Camera Kit (Nikon D850 + lenses) available. I believe that doing my job well allows a photographer to put more of their energy into making great pictures while knowing that the technical details and everything outside the viewfinder is taken care of - whether its lighting, digital workflow or logistics. My priority is making sure images are safe and up to standard but thats just where the job starts. I've hauled gear up snowy mountains in Switzerland, camping overnight to catch the sunrise. I've held back traffic in the hectic streets of Maputo and held onto photographers while they hang out of moving cars descending mountain passes on Mallorca. I'm happy making coffee for clients in studio or making sure everyones getting enough water when its 40C in the Namibian desert. I can handle a 12 x 12 scrim in Cape Town's fierce south easterly wind or stay up through the night preparing images for a deadline?its all part of the job and with 10 years in the business you can trust me to do it well. Please feel free to give me call if you'd like to discuss any projects or have any questions Thanks!

Photography graduate from Southampton Institute with a good understanding of Canon, Mamiya and Nikon. Have previously used Bowens, Profoto and Elinchrom lighting. Mac and PC literate. Knowledgable in Lightroom 5, CS6/CC and Capture One 10, Phocus. Hardworking, punctual and presentable with great client service skills, I am also a problem solver with an eye for detail.

Worked in Amsterdam for 6 months, assisting mainly still life and lifestyle. I was an e-commerce photographer for 9 months in a studio in London and through this I acquired extensive knowledge of technical and meticulous lighting set ups. I also understand most photographic equipment is heavy. I am competent in the use of Lightroom, Capture One, Photoshop, and various others softwares. I have a good background in DIY which comes in handy regularly. Happy to take a beer/coffee and chat after an intense day

Hi, I've assisted for 4,5 years now and absolutely love it. When not assisting or second shooting, I work on my own stuff (weddings, portraits and events), but have no other commitments. What I can do for you: get your camera, laptop, lights, background etc. ready; take direction very well; get along with everyone on a shoot really well from the get go; focus on the job throughout the shoot. I have been told have a very good eye for small detail, have a great attitude and lots of initiative. I learn very quickly, am hands on and don't mind getting mucky/any "small tasks". If it's fast paced it's OK: I worked as a store manager for nearly 7 years so I'm used "thinking on my feet" and staying calm under pressure. I can also do basic grooming and styling. With regards to programs, I personally use Lightroom and Photoshop CS4, but when assisting I also use Capture One, Leaf and Phocus. I do my own website so I know basic Dreamweaver. I shoot Canon, but most photographers I have assisted use Nikon and I'm comfortable with both. I am based in North London and happy to travel (I've been on shoots all around the UK -Sheffield, Glasgow, Southampton, Dorset, Cambridge, Birmingham, Brighton etc). I am eligible to work in the UK (I'm from the EU) and am fully insured with public liability insurance (covered up to 5 million), professional indemnity and cover for my kit. I'm available even on short notice; the shortest notice I've had is 1 hour so if you can give me more, that would be nice ;) As long as I haven't already committed to another shoot, I'll definitely be there -on time and ready to go.

In 2015 I graduated from university with a 1.0 BA (hons) degree in Creative Media Practice specialising in photography. After graduating from university, I volunteered with Raleigh International, (a sustainable development charity) and traveled to Malaysia, where I worked as the official expedition photographer for three months. Having arrived back in the U.K I am presently working towards developing numerous photographic projects. Apart from assisting Andy Earl for a day as part of his technical team and assisting fellow students throughout university, I can't say I have much experience of assisting. That said, I am extremely keen to learn and develop as a photographer and feel assisting other photographers will serve to enhance my photographic skills and ability.

Over the past few years I have been working on and developing my personal practice as well as assisting in wide variety and photographic and video shoots. I have worked on projects ranging from commercial / fashion to documentary and therefore feel perfectly comfortable working in the studio or on location. I have ample experience working with different photographic and image software, mainly: Photoshop CS6, Adobe Bridge, Adobe Lightroom and Capture One. I use a combination of digital and analog cameras and formats in my personal work, so I am familiar with and feel comfortable handling a variety of camera systems (Canon, Nikon, Leica, Mamiya, Hasseblad, Yashica, Ricoh). I also know how to handle and digitally scan film. I am very friendly, creative, hard working, dependable and a good problem solver. I love assisting, take direction well and don't mind the long hours or working in harsh weather. Every assisting assingment is a new and great challenge, it's also a fantastic and invaluable opportunity to learn and see how other photographers go about doing their thing. Being a photographer myself I know how hard it can be to get the shot you want sometimes but I also know the great satisfaction that comes when you actually do. Helping someone else achieve that same feeling makes me feel great. Finally, I'm also big and strong. I grew up on a farm so I'm quite handy to have around whenever some heavy lifting is needed.

I strive to take photos that are more than just a facebook upload. I love taking photographs of everyone and everything, I concentrate on telling a story and capturing those moments of unimpeded fun where people who are normally conservative show their "wild" side. My aim is to bring out the fun in people by being a photographer with a personality!
