Professional Practice

The guidance and main area for research in regards to the 'Professional Practice' Brief is to discover new techniques and processes and recognise technical proficiency in other practitioners and attempt to achieve their standards or beyond . . . this must then lead onto us competing in a vast many recognised photography competitions evidently as to which the already established and valued professional photographers have previously succeeded in and to which will be highly beneficial to obtaining potential clients in the future.

• Firstly I plan to look at a many contemporary practitioners working methods who I find inspiring, investigating immensely into how they achieve their artistic flavour and set a standard within a highly competitive photographic market.

• I then wish to look further into the many different techniques and processes available within both Digital and Film Photography, then by being experimental I will apply these new skills which will evidently enhance my creativeness within my future workflow.

Originality

FAILURE is seen as a 'lack of achievement' however through failure comes SUCCESS

"LEARN from your mistakes and PUSH BOUNDARY LIMITS"

• Beyond creativity and experimentation, I then wish to discuss the concept behind the initial then finalized photographic piece, explaining it's purpose and what message as a photographer I am conveying to my potential audience.

"Some pictures are tentative forays without you even knowing it. They become methods. It's important to take bad pictures. It's the bad ones that have to do with what you've never done before. They can make you recognize something you hadn't seen in a way that will make you recognize it when you see it again." Diane Arbus
