History

Her love of photography started at the age of 16 - inspired by her creative family, she bought her first film SLR camera & went off to college to study photography and media - specialising in black & white printing techniques, studio, macro, advertising photography & film. She gained a lot of commercial photography experience around that time helping at a local newspaper in their photographic department, assisting a local portrait photographer & also working at Pinewood Photographic Department developing images taken on film sets and promotional film photos.

In 1998, Sarah went to work at Scanit - a company specialising in graphics and high-res image scanning & manipulation for magazines. It was there that she developed her photo manipulation skills using Photoshop - editing, colour correcting & manipulating photographs for magazines.

Since moving to Brighton in 2004, she has developed a great passion for fashion & portrait photography - where she continues to develop her work through commissioned & personal photo shoots & projects.
