Drawing With Lights and Flashes Workshop, Coldstream Youth Project

16 Jan

I recently ran a Drawing with Light workshop with the brilliant young people at the Coldstream Youth Project. It was such a fun and inventive session – using a mix of torches and flashlights, everyone created their own light drawings to represent something personal: a part of their personality, or an aspiration for the future.

This type of workshop is always full of surprises. Some participants drew their names in mid-air, others sketched stars, hearts, or abstract shapes that revealed something about who they are. The process combines photography, movement, and imagination – a perfect mix of art and play.

We finished the session with a collaborative group photo, where everyone appeared inside a glowing TV screen made entirely of light! It was a brilliant way to bring everyone together and end on a creative high.

I love my job. I get to capture children's first smiles, watch families grow, and I have the privilege of creating lifetime memories with them. I see couples look into each other's eyes and remember, all over again, how much they love each other. I get a kick from the pride and excitement on a business owner's face when they see their photography for the first time - pride in the company they have built and excitement about using my work to further future growth.

So if you would like to enhance your home or website with timeless photography that warms your heart and makes you proud, then welcome!
