Isle of WightChristopher OrchinChris Orchin Photography Snaefell Woodland Ryde Isle of Wight PO33 1PW England tel:- 01983 563 715 mobile:- 07799 473 537 web address:- www.chrisorchinphotography.co.uk/ e-mail:- Christopher Orchin facebook:- Chris Orchin Photography Specialist Photographer for :- Type business: Aspiring Enthusiast My photographic style: My style seeks to provide images that capture the essence of the person in ways that they appear natural and flatter without recourse to extensive retouching My greatest strengths: As a self motivating and starting individual I respond well to new challenges I have been in photography: Every since I was given a Brownie and 127 film in 1959 How I got started in photography: Although I have been taking photographs for over 50 years I took it up more seriously over three years ago following regular attendance at life drawing classes. It was these that gave me an appreciation of how light and the shape of a body combined to give great images. My photographic skills: I always seek to plan in advance (but will throw away the script if circumstances dictate) and pay attention to detail. My personality: Although I am quiet I do have the ability to communicate well with individuals across the social spectrum in ways that build confidence and trust. Geographic areas I cover: Although based on the Isle of Wight I can easily cover the coastal region from Dorset to East Sussex and inland to Surrey and Berkshire. Venues I frequently attend: I have no preference for an specific venues as all venues present there own challenges. I found inspiration from: I am inspired by both Trevor and Fay Yerby, and Damien McGillicuddy because they provide a spectrum of work which both challenge and stimulate my interest by showing what can be achieved. Photographic training: No formal training in photography although I have welcomed the support and mentoring given to me by colleagues over the past few years. My interests outside photography: Reading, writing and learning. I am currently completing a second degree with the Open University (International Studies). Major events: I am married and have two grown up children. Photography represents a fourth career that has included health service management, lecturing in business and management and management consultancy working in eastern Europe from the Baltic to the Balkans. Why I like the SWPP: I am impressed by how members, in particular those who are already well established share their photographic knowledge and skills. I am also impressed by the range of services and support provided Future plans: To continue to develop my knowledge and skill as a photograph and move up the photographic ladder and become a professional photographer Other wedding photographic services Lifestyle images People photography Senior portraits Studio portraits Location portraits Youth culture Portrait Children Pregnancy Family Groups Home portraits Head shots Semi Pro More Photographers around Isle of Wight Photographers in Ryde There are 227 days to get ready for the SWPP Convention and Trade Show at The Hilton London Metropole Hotel ...
