Paul Sanders
I’ve always had a need to prove myself, to push myself to the limits and to succeed. For me, success was embodied by attaining a senior role at a national newspaper, which I achieved when, in 2002, I was approached by The Times, by 2004 I was The Picture Editor.
Amy Bateman
I am a creative photographer who specialises in capturing people, places and artisan products on camera. I love what I do and have a reputation for fully immersing myself into every commission, ensuring that my clients – you – receive stunning high-quality imagery.
Nigel Danson
At some time in life crossroads are presented to you or thrust upon you. I really believe that true happiness is about following your passion. In 2017 that big change came for me and I decided that I wanted to experience the environment I love so much more – the great outdoors. My adventure as a full time landscape photographer began.
Q&A hosted by TogCast
In the final part of the day, we bring all 4 of our speakers together for a panel discussion, hosted by TogCast.
You’ll have the opportunity to ask questions, perhaps inspired by our speakers’ earlier talks.
Audience participation is a must!
