I know I haven't posted anything since Christmas Day, but trust me I really have been busy! I thought I'd give you a quick update, because two very exciting things have happened for me in the last month.
1- I have been asked to photograph a wedding! This is huge for me, I am not even 18 and I'm doing my first wedding. It's very exciting for me, and I hope it will be a fantastic experience and a chance for me to really learn and progress with my photography skills, so this is great news! It's on the 15th of February, which is coming round rather quickly, and I am super nervous so please keep me in your prayers on the 15th ;) thanks! P.s. I wonder if any of you could share any tips and tricks for wedding photography as its my first time?
2- I have literally just picked up my first piece of commissioned work. It is a poster for a local orchestra, and it was very exciting that I got asked to make them a poster to advertise their concert. I am going to upload some of my graphics work on here at some point, because it is available to buy but I am waiting for my website to go live. Basically I digitally paint photographs using a very slow, careful and complex technique, which I have learnt myself. I did make it up as I was using photoshop, but I have no idea if someone has done it before me, I've never seem any work like it. I will inform you when these personalised art pieces are available to buy and tell you more about them when I do. :) so this poster was using this technique and photos that I had taken a few months ago. It's so amazing for me, to get paid for something that was just a hobby, I really feel like I'm beginning on a fantastic journey and I haven't even left school yet.
This new technique particularly is a big break through for me, and I have already been asked to make paintings for friends and family and for my school, for posters and advertisement, I can't wait to share it wi you all on my website.
Bye for now... New posts coming in a few minutes
