Project 52: March

06:28

Good afternoon you lovely people, I hope your March was enjoyable. Mine has been mostly enjoyable, and I will show you why...


Week one and I went to the bi-monthly camera club meet up after hanging around town after uni and having a pizza for dinner with Evie C which was fun. The meet involved a tour of The Coffin Works (where the Tip Top Team reside now) by Cornelius - go over and grab a tour from him here, you will honestly love it! It was quite an interactive tour with a show of how these RIP plates above were made back a day and a look around all the nooks and crannies of the factory that have been kept. Let me know if you'd like to see my images from this day, but certainly go and visit for yourself because the people are so nice and it was very enjoyable.


Week two and not much really happened... except I was asked by my Chummy to photograph the surprise party she had meticulously planned for her parents wedding anniversary. It was a casino/Vegas themed party with a lot of bowties so I decided to get a quick snap of my brother's bowtie during the night - I still have to edit all these images and send them over but they complemented me doing the right thing because they barely noticed I was there, which was nice to know I wasn't getting in the way.


Week three and I managed to pull off my own studio shoot with a couple friends - who said how they loved every minute - I was stressed and frantically trying to get plenty of looks in, changing the lighting arrangement and all in only two hours. To say it was intense wouldn't be a lie, but I sure did get LOTS of great shots that I'm very pleased with. If you want to see them head over to my instagram ;) This was the last look and it was SO GOOD but one of the staff members came in and told me to wrap up so we didn't get many shots but it was still a very successful solo shoot.

The next day I had my first exhibition with a few classmates which was also a great success! There was an amazing turn out that filled the room, I didn't take my camera as I already had a portfolio and frame to carry but I wish I had so I could capture the exhibition. I do expect it won't be the last though, so I'll be sure to get snaps next time!


Week four and it was work work work to get everything finished in time for my deadline. Including having to take time off to go to the Photography show and spend some time with my Dad for his birthday. but nevertheless I managed it and am anxiously waiting for the results! And missing my dear memory stick, I actually feel a bit lost without it, especially as we have to begin working on the next project.


Week five and it's back to the grind... Armed with a pony tail and backpack it was back to the usual uni schedule, and yes I am very happy about that badge I got from the photography show. I thought about this shot yesterday during my day at uni but forgot to take it as I was just tired and had  ahead full of new ideas to think of. I'll probably try it another way another time as it was a bit rushed to be honest. Uni has allowed me to think up all sorts of amazing ideas to come back to. 

And now I must get back to my grind and begin  brainstorming for this next project which I am kind of looking forward to...


Cheerio loved ones - Beky x
