I’m Gillian and I’m from Northern Ireland. I’m mum to three wee rascals (5,3 and 1) and my desire to take better pictures of them led me to buying a DSLR which in turn led me to this course so that I could learn to use it properly.

I enrolled in the Professional Diploma in Photography in January 2017 and I’ve been pottering my way through the course since. I’m on the second to last assignment so nearly there!

The course and indeed this group have been absolutely wonderful in helping me to become a better photographer.
