Creative Sparks

I don’t like it when people say you can’t do something because you can always find a way to do things because there is always a way to do them, if you just think, write or talk to someone about them to make sense of everything. At school I loved art but at the same time I hated it, I hated the boundaries of what you were and weren’t allowed to do. Now I’ve finished school I can try to capture in my head what I think is beauty and then I create it. I am a fashion photographer and am planning my first photo shoot. Last month I started my work experience in London as a second assistant to a photographer and then another work experience as a assistant to a designer and now I’m in the process of having my first photo shoot, and this is all thanks to the creative sparks team. They don’t give me boundaries, they push me further.
