Marmaris Photographs September 2014

Here is a selection of images I have taken this month, in Marmaris. 7th - 15th September 2014.

Well christ it's been one heck of year!

I haven't posted for 8 months! That's crazy. But so much stuff has happened in that time.

I've been to a fair few places and photographed a variety of things. This year for me, it's been mostly about not so much photographing people. But more landscapes and street scenes.

The next few posts will be about the different places I've been and the things I've produced in this time.

University

So, as I was saying in my previous post..I am in hope to go to University in September to continue my Education in my passionate field.
I took my gap year or so to help me explore and define myself in regards to my personal photography, and although I don't have a set idea on what I love most (which I think is great) I find I'm ready to take my next step.
I haven't found the exact passion in my photography because frankly, I'm still discovering the world and there's so much more out there that I haven't explored yet. Although these past 6 months I have took a turn into bringing myself up through the likes of Facebook, I have been drawn to a lot of Child/Baby Photography, but this isn't where I am going to stop and I don't think I'd settle down and do that one subject for a living in the future, but I love doing those type shoots, nevertheless!
I've loved going on holiday and going to concerts to capture images from different types of activity this year. It's endless what you can do with a camera, and I don't think everyone will ever touch the sides.
I'm so excited what the industry can become in the future, it has so much potential. :)

I'm excited to see whether I get the place at Uni, it will be a great next 3 years in my life, enjoying learning more and more about the subject. I just want to get better and better at it and not stop.

I sound so, so geeky right now! Ah well. :)

Pretty Excited for the near future. :)

On Wednesday I've got a photoshoot of a band involving one of my good pals, Dean Garrod who recently sang solo at Grimsby Pride 2013 (You were amazing by the way)! Which is set up from as part of a Music course at a local college located not that far from me. :)

Happy birthday to Dean today as well, hope you had an amazing day mate! :)


I'm certainly hoping that we'll get some great shots from Wednesday, I'm feeling pretty positive so definitely looking forward to seeing the outcome images! :) Will definitely be finding time to put some up on here. There's so much to write about and show you, I'll still be adding photos from a year back on here in close weeks to come. I really wish I started this blog sooner, I love writing and ranting about things way too much for my own good!

Also, I'm getting quite a few shoots booked in for end of this month and currently got 3 to sort out for the end of November! Two of which are going to be Christmas photoshoots with little kiddies! So should be adorable! ;D


Exciiiiited much! :D

Updates soooon! Still haven't got my new camera yet, so review is on the waiting list! No worries. :)

Chat soon. Sam

It really annoys me!

When I'm at work and people take over me packing the bags for them, and they're really efffing snotty about it! Like wtf man, I'm offering to pack your sh*t, and it's partly my job anyway so just let me get on with it? No need to be rude. Fair enough if you say "It's okay I'll pack if you like", but no! Snatching or roughly dragging the bag away as I go to pick it up. Come on, are we serious?

Or they're constantly checking the screen to see whether I've reduced something for them, like HELLO YES I CAN SEE THE REDUCE STICKER xoxoxox, jeeeeeze -.- way to make me feel like an idiot? And point it out at me in a voice as if to say "you usually forget to reduce" attitude, and it just really peeeeeees me off, like OMG go away.

Gggggggrrrr!

I've wanted to write this post all day!

*releeease!* aaah. :)

Competition and businesses on Facebook

There seems to be a lot of competition within the photography industry on Facebook lately, and I don't really like it. But in a way I do?

It took me long enough to finally pick up the courage to make my photography page because there is SO much criticism out there and so many horrible people, and then one day I thought why not.

Anyway, my point is...ever since this day I've noticed a S**T load of other Photography pages of other teens I know and stuff, and yeah fair enough...whatever, that's fine. But the stress and competition it's put on me and the rest of is, is so intense! Like what the hell? Where did this even all come from?

It's like, calm down guys...it's basically a place to blog your work and get feedback and an audience! Not piss on each others fire. And be absolute c*nts to each other?

In a way I'm liking and enjoying the pressure, gives me more of a reason to boost myself and set new objectives and directions, so cheers. :)

Dalyan Boat Trip

Thought I'd give you another insight to a cool feeling photo from the boat trip. It feels kind of chilling because the colours are quite cold and edgey. I like it. :)
