As a portrait photographer based in Northampton, I’ve always believed in the power of photography to tell stories and capture the essence of individuals. Recently, I had the privilege of leading a photography workshop with The Shaw Trust Youth during their Creative Careers Week. This experience was not only fulfilling but also a reminder of the impact that creative expression can have, especially on young people exploring their potential.

Capturing More Than Just Faces: The Art of Portrait Photography

During the workshop, I guided the students through the process of creating portraits that go beyond simple images—they’re visual stories. We explored different aspects of portrait photography, from understanding lighting and composition to capturing emotions and personalities. Watching these young creatives discover their voice through the lens was truly inspiring, and the portraits they produced were a testament to their talent and growth.

Supporting the Northampton Community Through Art

As someone deeply rooted in Northampton, I’m passionate about using my skills to contribute to the community. Working with The Shaw Trust Youth allowed me to share my expertise with a group of young people who might not otherwise have access to such opportunities. It was a chance to not only teach them about photography but also to show them how art can be a powerful tool for self-expression and empowerment.
