Last week Gill wrote:
My job is so varied! This week has seen two sets of twins, various clients, others turning up late, or a week early, during another shoot! And also a jive lesson at a BNI group, taking photos of the Mayor, and finally being chauffeured around a golf club in a buggy, for a brochure shoot! What will tomorrow bring!!

photographer-gill-alexanderTwo years ago Gill, who had previously been working as a dental nurse, decided to change career and joined Barrett & Coe photography courses. She achieved a highly coveted Grade 1 on the wedding photography course in October 2011 and then went on to complete the portrait course in April 2012, also achieving a Grade 1. She opened her studio in May 2012.

Typically, like many graduates of our photography training Gill has quickly established herself in her new career as a leader in photographic excellence.
