Portfolio Surgery -

with Johnny Hardstaff.  To share my portfolio with a professional and get a totally fresh and honest opinion about my work was brilliant.  The questions that he asked me really made me confront what I want to be and where I see myself going.  Based upon this Johnny was able to offer me advice on the next stage after university - my desire being creative advertising.  To get into this field, I am going to have to ensure my concepts leap off the page, and crank up the pace of my work to produce a vast and varied body of work.  I was really pleased that he got excited about pieces of work that hadn't received good feedback at review - and this gives me confidence that I should trust my own instincts and do work that feels right to me.  Johnny suggested that I investigate a career in PR, something I had never thought about before, but sounds intriguing.  All in all the workshop gave me positive feedback and encouraged me to keep on doing what I'm doing and take it to the next level.  It was also beneficial to see other peers portfolios and witness what I need to do in terms of layout/content/aesthetic to pull myself up.

The Perfect Gift For Mother's Day:



Today was the day of our Mothers Day Fundraiser -
Anna, Leanne, Hannah & myself raised £66.80p for the d&ad piggy bank :]

(Above) Mother Hen Cards, my contribution to the stall!
(Below) Yummy  Mummy by Hannah Davies which I purchased for my mum.

Doing the stall was actually really good fun,
minus some very competitive photography students,
embarrassing attitude = poor representation of their course!!

Thank you to everyone who made a contribution or a purchase!!
