Better late than never, the Saatchi Gallery has finally joined in the embrace of the ‘selfie’ with its new display ‘From Selfie to Self-Expression’ that explores the self-portraiture genre from Van Gogh to * shivers * Kim Kardashian. This exhibit also opens itself up to images produce by the public with the gallery receiving over 14,000 entries from 113 different countries as part of a competition initiative that was co-engineered between Saatchi, Leica and Huawei.

Relationships are a wonderful thing to have but require a fair bit of work on each persons side and this absolutely applies to a working relationship. Communication between model and photographer is vital to producing images which conveys what the photographer wants but is beautifully executed by the input of the model. So here is my advice on the model-photographer relationship for those who are new to the model/photographer job, composed of tips that I personally find useful: [ 712 more words ]

Hello fellows! Whether you are a die-hard digital or a funky film photographer, a beginner or a pro, we all like to receive some advice sometimes. I have studied photography since GCSE and now I am about to graduate with a BA (hons) degree from Coventry University, it's safe to say I don't know everything there is to know but a lot of learning has taken place in the past 7 years.

So it's the end of the academic year, everyone is making that final trip home or stepping glamorously onto the steps of a Ryanair plane. But that's not me just yet, because I am the type of person who walks into the university bookshelf or a Waterstones store and picks up five or six books to read when I only went in for one.

Come on Whitechapel. I walked into your gallery with high hopes that this exhibition would reignite my passion for learning about the female artists and prove that, despite recent politics, all hope is not lost. Indeed, all hope is not lost but this is only the beginning and Whitechapel Gallery has proved so with it's latest exhibition. My recent visit to London led to becoming my first trip to Whitechapel Gallery, I'd spent the majority of the day visiting the creative genius of Wolfgang Tillman at Tate Modern and so I was running high on inspiration, looking forward to being further inspired before I went on to visit the underwhelming Taylor Wessing Portrait Prize at the National Portrait Gallery (That's another story).

The New Year is a time for all the sayings such as "new year, new me" or "time to make a change" to come out repetitively in Instagram posts or Facebook statuses. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with that because there isn't, each to their own. But this is also the time of year where we often publicly announce our New Years Resolution, a concept traced back to the Babylonians 'Akitu' festival and the Roman's promise to their January god Janus (who is also the god of transitions, war, peace and new beginnings).

Hello! I've been enjoying the Icy weather in Herts this morning, weather like this is a photographers dream, enjoy it whilst you can as it's probably as close to snow as we will get this year.
I hope you all had a great Christmas and will have a great New Year!
