About
A little bit about me...
Saul Beeson. Urmston, Manchester.
I've been into photography for a quite a long time but have only taken it seriously since 2005. I have just finished 2 years of studying photography at Mancat, I will be studying at Manchester Metropolitan University from September 2008. Going to college enabled me to experiment with traditional dark-room printing, something I really enjoy, I hope to continue and expand on this at university.
I first thought seriously about photography when I started exploring old buildings and structures and wanted to document the places and the finds I made inside. I started out with a small point and shoot digital camera, a far cry from the Canon 5D I use today.
It was the dark, difficult conditions I found within the derelict shells of industry and hospitals that pressed me to learn more about photography so that I could accurately capture what I saw and use the conditions to my advantage.
After I finish university I hope to persue a career in photojournalism.
