Christopher Bethell turned to photography as a means of understanding the world around him after leaving a dead end job in Manchester. He returned to Cheshire in order to study on the Foundation Degree in Contemporary Photography at Mid Cheshire College before moving onto Staffordshire University to top his degree up to a full Ba (hons) where he is currently studying. In 2010 he won first place in
the Didsbury Arts Festival photography competition with his 'human typology'. Later, in 2011 one of his photos was selected for the homepage of the Bing 'Your-Britain' competition and another was shortlisted in the national top 20. Again in 2011, Bethell's photograph 'Kingsway Hospital' from the set 'Urban Exploration' was shortlisted and exhibited for the Title Art Prize, organised by Blank Media at Blankspace, Manchester. Christopher often works alongside Bekky Lonsdale on professional commissions. Bekky is also a photographer with a wealth of experience and achievements; having exhibited competition winning work in The Triangle, Manchester. Together the two offer packages that cover events from different perspectives - offering a comprehensive set of images. If you wish to hire both photographers then simply contact Christopher or Bekky.
