About me
Hello, My name's Anita, I am a photographer and photo assistant looking for freelance opportunities. I embarked on a career change into photography in August 2019 and sought mentorship by Annie Masciavè through the M&C Saatchi Mentor Black Business programme. She provided me with some valuable industry insight from an art-buying perspective and I managed to get freelance photo assisting work and eventually worked for fashion photographer Nick Knight at SHOWstudio as his studio and photo assistant full-time. Since leaving SHOWstudio in August 2022, I have been working on adding to my portfolio. I have basic knowledge of flash and continuous lighting, and I am proficient with Photoshop, Lightroom and have a basic understanding of Premiere. You can view my portfolio by following me on Instagram @uglyduckling.studio Thank you for taking the time to read the above, I hope you will consider me for any upcoming opportunities. Kind regards, Anita
