Hi Andrew
Loved the camera review and thank you for not going too "teccie and part numbers on us". Looks a cool bit of kit that. Your images are really cracking. Did you manage to sell any?
Couple of pieces that I have done recently - Ovingdean Hall College Brochure - Not all the pictures are mine, they have used stock images, but front and back cover and around the grounds and the student shots are all mine. They have also used the images on their website. I have attached a pdf.
Also I photographed the front cover of this weeks issue for Latest 7, together with the Kids review images which head up the editorial. (Not the girl in the pink jumper).The children are my boys. Charlie also wrote a food/restaurant review - they are his own words - so at 8 yrs old he has been published and on a Front Cover.

Just as a note to all your students - the amount of knowledge that I gained just in the 4 days I was on the course has really helped my awareness of what sells. My "photographic eye" is getting better and going out being pro-active and snapping loads.

Fantastic stuff, Patrick! Really, really good.
Fellow students, this really is Patrick grabbing the bull by the horns. I have no wish to be patronising, but Patrick has clearly started to "see" the picture on the page before he actually takes it. That "Latest" cover shot is the kind of thing that sub-editors love.....There's plenty of room to overlay copy and the picture itself has pretty much written its own headline. The Ovingdean Hall shot is, I imagine, exactly what his client wanted; happy, smiling faces of young people from all over the world..........all laughing at the photographer lying on his back on a gravel driveway!
Reading between the lines, here is what I am picking up......
1. He's putting himself out there, finding new clients.
2. He's shooting pictures all the time and therefore getting to know his equipment.
Put those two together and you will get better. As you get better, you will find more and more people willing to pay for your services.

His confidence and skill grows and grows and long may it continue. It should be an inspiration to us all.
Thank you for the kind and encouraging comments - much appreciated
