Our Year 12 Photography students have recently been creating some light paintings, exploring the effects of shutter speed and long exposure when using DSLR cameras! Here’s a couple shots from the sessions!

Back in November, our A Level Photography students had a visit from Jonathan Purcell, a UCLAN lecturer and photographer. He gave them some tips and tricks in photography, assisted on their current projects, as well as an introduction to university life.

Recently all of our Art students visited Liverpool to capture some primary research for their projects. They also visited the Walker Art Gallery and Open Eye, to cover both traditional and contemporary styles of art.
