When I started shooting I decided to adopt an attitude of YES. I would enjoy what I was doing and if opportunities came my way I would say yes and see what happens. Soon after I started shooting a friend suggested I submit some of my photos to The Sun. I did and I was thrilled to find they accepted a photo for publication. Then came offers to buy prints and asks to hire me for event photography. I ended up shooting for Blackbook and doing a series for Occupy on and on. It's been fun! I hoped to do a show at some point but it was not something I expected to do for some time. That being said I've been asked to do a show in July and I've said YES! I will be alongside some incredible photographers so I am a tad intimidated to place my work in the same room as theirs but it's always best to be in better company I think:). I will list the photographers I will be sharing the space with once their names go online.
