21/ full driving licence/ living in the north west.

I am a creative individual, and feel that through my education and workexperience I have a set of transferable skills that can be applied to a team, whilst also allowing me to meet personal targets to a high standard. I have been an active member of work forces of varying sizes, and have learnt to understand the importance each person brings to the success of the organisation. I have also had the opportunity to apply this understanding to projects I have undertaken in my own development, namely in my pursuit of photography and media based work. I feel I have always upheld a professional and reliable attitude to my responsibilities as an employee. I am motivated, enthusiastic, cope well under pressure, and can take the lead if needed.

I studied at wirral grammar school for girls where i achieved 10 GCSES (English lit, English Language, Maths, Biolegy, Art, German, History, Physics, Textiles, Chemistry) and 2 A levels (History and Sociology) . I then chose to persue a path in a more creative subject. I am now completing my degree in Photography and Media studies.

I have had experience in a lot of studio work including portfolios and I have also had experience in wedding photography. The majority of my projects were based on fashion photography and advertising. They involved one to one sessions in the studio working with different clothing looks and make-up, which I would do myself.I have completed some portfolios for friends who study dance, which again focused on a one to one basis to achieve the right shapes needed for the portfolio. The wedding photography was work experience where I had freedom of a camera to take whatever pictures I wanted, some were then used to give to the happy couples. I am a very laid back, chatty person who enjoys what I do and would love to build my career. One of my main aims when photographing someone is to make the person feel comfortable, because Ibelieve that the photos then reflect the person, and create a more beautiful image.

I am looking for any experience offered to me, hopefully leading to a career.
