Progress update.

I thought that I would write an update about what I have been up to. So really I feel that I should of been further along with the projects as well as keeping up regularly with posting on my blog but I have really been working on my career.

 

After interning at Cambridge Style Week as a photographer it really made me realise how much I love that genre of photography. This led on to me contacting other fashions weeks to see if they too offer internships. I am hoping to keep in contact with Cheltenham Fashion Week as their organiser has expressed interest. I have also applied for work experience with The Clothes Show. Whilst on my search for experience a fashion magazine asked if I did any fashion writing. I sent them my article on Camb Style Week and they then asked if I would like to be a fashion contributor for them on their online magazine! This has now become a regular thing and I shall be attending High Street Fashion Week as Press on behalf of the magazine. I hope to get plenty of photographs and really take advantage of the opportunity. Before the event I have been interviewing as many of the designers as possible and featuring an article on each one. The same magazine also produces an international publication which is available in 22 countries. They have now asked me to interview a designer in America and write an article on him. I can't wait but I have to say I am feeling a little under pressure!

 

I have also been undertaking PR work experience at my place of work so instead of being in the animal hospital I have been over in the PR Department. I loved my time over there and am now considering applying for their next media internship.

 

I am also hoping to get work experience with a local magazine and am in the process of organising dates. I have contacted several local magazines and should be producing a fashion article for them also....hopefully using my own photos again where possible. I have also just created my own fashion blog so that it is possible to view all my articles in one place like a portfolio.

 

It has been such a busy few weeks and I know the next month or so will be the same with article deadlines etc. I am intending to have all of the projects completed by next weekend as this is when I hope to shoot my next assignment. I have still been keeping up with going to galleries and viewing others work as well as reading photography articles and my Mastering Digital Photography textbook.
