Hey, My name is Luke.
So, you’d like to know a bit about me? Probably best to start with how I got into photography. I am sure you don’t want to spend your time reading my sales pitch; so i’ll try and make this a little bit more interesting.
I first got into photography when I took it as a GCSE in high school. Now, in all honesty, I only took this GCSE because I thought I would be able to go on loads of trips and get out of other classes. After my GCSE’s I had no idea what I wanted to do, so I just went ahead and studied the subject I got the highest grade in and enjoyed doing, which was photography.
So, I began studying photography at College which is where my passion truly grew. Throughout my two years at college, I started looking into career possibilities but was still undecided on what industry I wanted to go into. So I decided to go to University and move from Manchester to Nottingham.
Moving to Nottingham I have met some amazing people, friends and even connections and experience in many industries. This experience helped kick-start and support my career in Music. As I graduated in 2020 my final months at University were cut short due to Covid-19 which was devastating. But going to Nottingham Trent University gave me a clear vision and path of where I want to be, and I am ever grateful for it.
Graduating within lockdown put a pause on my passion as a music photographer. However, with some patience, I was able to get back out there and into gigs within no time.
One year into photographing Music I was accredited as Nottingham’s Young Creative Award Winner. This sparked even more passion inside me and now I get the opportunity to create content for some amazing artists.
You can watch my interview on Notts TV where I discuss what it’s like to win the award and a little bit about my practice. Hopefully, you don’t cringe as much as I do when watching it.
