It's been AAAAGGGGESSS since I've been on DA but it doesn't mean I havn't been busy taking photo's.

I'm just on the verge of graduating from the University of East London and have had a hell of a year.  So making up for my lack of journal entries this year below is a quick summary of what I've been upto:

:bulletblue: Had the opportunity to assist some amazing photographers
:bulletblue: Been building up client's and contacts and have been working with some brilliant and inspiring people
:bulletblue: Been hired to shoot in clubs including Cafe de Paris and Sound in central London
:bulletblue: Involved in teaching photography and photoshop classes in East and Central London
:bulletblue: Have had shoots in England, Germany and France.
:bulletblue: Have had shoots with interesting and creative people including dancers, gymnasts, free runners/traceurs, singers, bands, models, actors, performers, dj's etc
:bulletblue: had fun doing it! :p

...and at the moment I am preparing for my graduation exhibition's and stepping into the real world of full time photographer.

I now have a presence on Facebook too so add me as a fan here www.facebook.com/pages/Peter-T…

Busy, Busy, Busy...

I know there hasn't been a submission from me in about a week now but I've been shooting almost non stop but it's all for jobs rather than for anything with artistic merit so havn't had anything suitable to upload...

I shot a wedding at the weekend and ended up spending part of the day in a limousine driving around central London to do some shots of the bride, groom, best men, and bridesmades in regent's park beteen the service and reception... also grabed prawns, sushi, even a little cavear at the reception... free food is always a perk :p  Was really lucky with the weather and got some brilliant shots.

I've also shot 3 portfolios this week for an actor and extras.


Editing/airbrushing progress

I'm exagerating my editing in all areas and I seem to be getting somewhere.  


Website...

Also reorganising my website... I'm working on it offline at the moment but hopefully it will be in a suitible state to make live soon :p

I've just come across a photographer who has been on DA for a good few years and I really like their style of shooting and reckon they could do with a bit more attention on DA.  Take a look at his gallery for yourself if you get time... I've put a few thumbs of my favorite below ...

In summary
:bulletblue: new house,
:bulletblue: new job(s)
:bulletblue: new uni year :)

After a bast**d of a house hunt I seem to have fallen on my feet as I'm living with a pro photographer and two students... and get this.... there's  a darkroom in the basement :D expect alota film from me this year and a bitta direction...

....the last few years of study I've experimented with whatever I want when I want across all mediums and styles but this year I'm going to set myself a goal and mainly stick to that discipline.  Still gotta finalize what that will be but I'm drifting towards landscape/architecture photography.  Whatever I choose I hope to turn it into my main income when I graduate.  

Job wize I've got a trial shoot coming up at a studio in Shepard's bush shooting fashion photography,  I've also got some more weddings lined up for a bitta ' pocket money' including one next week. The odd freelance jobs here and there are starting to mount up, I just got commissioned to shoot at 100% Design exhibition meaning I get free entry and I get paid to shoot there :)  I've also got a commission on Thursday to shoot at the Choreographers ball, a club in London for a dance award showcase evening acknowledging the people behind dance routeens on music videos, theatre shows etc.... really random things but I'm loving the variety and it pays the rent :D

It's been a very demotivational summer but now I'm back in London things are starting to fall into place and life's starting to become busy again, just the way I like it :)......now I've just gotta finish this damn dissertation :s :p

I'm also trying to stick to uploading an average of a deviation a day too, no matter what it is :p

cheers for your support!

...and thanks to Genesis-Orbit and gilad for the gallery features :P

Been away from London all summer hence no action from my DA account but I'm back now so watch thes space :p

Been experimenting alot with my editing skills and hopefully it will mean more striking photos but I'll let you judge for yourselves.

Hope your all having a good summer and thanks for still watching,
