This image above was taken during his practical day. At the time Gregg said: “I will be taking the next step in becoming a professional photographer and joining the Barrett & Coe franchise.  They have provided the support and advice complete with confidence building training to help fully support the set up and successful running of a fully running studio. The two words of advice I can give if you’re looking for a career in wedding or portrait photography is DO IT.”

Gregg now has his own studio in Welwyn, Hertfordshire (see below) which he works in at weekends whilst having a full-time job as a college lecturer during the week. Last week he had sales of £1,705.
