    As a photography teacher, should you be a practicing artist in your own right?

    I'm doing a research project as part of my teaching qualification and I wanted peoples' opinion - should you need to be a practicing artist to be a successful teacher of photography/art? I'm questioning the dual identity of the role of art teacher. I would love just a line or two so I could see...

    Having problems at Uni... help?

    This is spot on - take is from a fine art photography graduate who tried too late to change courses in her second year! I stupidly tried to stick it out to see if the second year would get better and then tried to change institutions in the March of that year. They were reticent due to the...

    Should people have the right not to be photographed

    As a photographer I've done my fair bit of street photography, and felt a little bad at intruding on peoples everyday lives but in the end just got on with it. The shots were purely personal/coursework. However, having found a picture of myself and my other half printed on the front of the...

    Poor studio experience.

    lol, it helps when the company actually advertises for a photographer.

    Jessops Refused me Finance :(

    lol, Jessops finance refuses a lot of people. We never expected it to go through whenever a customer came in! It's like the card machines in our shop. They used to decline the card even when there wasn't a reason!
