Some months ago I was contacted by a feature writer working for the Professional Photography magazine. She was creating a feature on the different ways you can learn photography. The magazine was interested in where my qualification with the Photography Institute had taken me since I qualified around six years ago.

It's been quite a ride, my qualification spurring me onto become a full time professional photographer in the military, working in Afghanistan, Sierra Leone and even for the - as was - Prime Minister David Cameron as the Official Photographer to 10 Downing Street and the Cabinet Office.

Have a read through the article below, which has been kindly authorised for me to share on my blog by Professional Photography.
