Hi
Since I joined the Society I have been a busy bee so apologies for not getting involved sooner. I will try harder!!
I want to introduce myself. My name is Caroline and I am based in Hampshire and focus on Events, Portraits and Weddings. I am loving working again after taking time out to have the kids who are now 3 and 5 and in September they will both be in big school so I will have 6 hours a day to work instead of fitting it all into the evenings and weekends which is how i currently work.
I have spent the last 12 months building my website, business and of course portfolio and have found it challenging at times but always rewarding. I have taken 2 photography courses which have been crucial to making a good start with my business. I love taking photographs and I strive to improve and improve as there is plenty of room to improve and I am looking forward to joining the mentoring scheme later this year when I have the images to submit and time to put them together.
My strengths coming into the industry are that I was -dare I say - a videographer before having children and have always been a keen photographer. I have filmed over 100 weddings in the 7 years of filming as well as thousands of tropical fish, but that is another story. I am great with people especially children now and this helps with all the work I do. I also have a knack of putting people at ease which helps with the photographs.
I would be very grateful for any feedback on any of my work you see on my site
www.curiousworld.co.uk and please do join in my natters on my facebook and blog -
www.hampshirephotographers.co.uk I look forward to sharing time with fellow photographers in this society as our work can so very often be a lonely work as we sit in our darkened rooms editing endless photographs!!!
Thanks
