My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

France | Saturday, December 1, 2012 | 5 photos

Since finishing a degree in Photography in 2009, I have continued to develop my documentary, street and travel photography. I am passionate about documenting the lives of people and their environments though photography.

I have lived in ten different countries and despite the fact that I have been based in Switzerland for the past eight years I'm still a nomad at heart. There is nothing I like more than exploring a new location with my camera. I'm very adaptable and sensitive to different environments and cultures. People seem to accept my presence easily and are usually eager to tell me their story.

I've had some very positive recognition as a street photographer over the past three years and although I love street photography, I want to be more involved with the people and locations that I photograph. This is something I can do through documentary and travel photography. I would like to use my photography to inform and to promote understanding.

Although I'm a confident photographer, I have an insatiable and constant desire to improve. I think my enthusiasm to learn, my talent and energy and photography experience to date make me the perfect candidate.
