My Journey

4B7B8019.jpg

Hey, I'm Emily! It's an honour to have you here, let me introduce myself. I live in a sleepy seaside town just along the coast from Margate, Kent.

 

I have always been a creative person, as a child I was often found with colouring pens in hand or building something strange out of scraps. It seems I've also been a bit of an entrepreneur (I used to sell origami frogs in primary school). As time went on, I found photography. After dabbling during my exam years, I decided to pursue photography as a career. In 2009 I went to the University for the Creative Arts to complete a two year diploma in art, which enabled me to explore the various options alongside some like-minded people.

This acted as a stepping stone into making my dreams a reality and in 2011 I went to Kingston University to complete a BA in Photography. From there I began to build a tutoring business ' The Darkroom at Beach Creative ' (now in it's 10th year!?) which I run alongside my photography work.

I have 8 years of wedding photography experience and love telling your stories. Photography encompasses everything I do in life, I am rarely found without a camera in hand, always noticing photo opportunities and observing the world around us.

So, it's safe to say that I live and breathe photography!

It's not always easy being self-employed, it involves wearing lots of different hats. But not a moment goes by when I'm not grateful for trusting my gut and following my dreams. Little me would be so proud of the path I've taken.
