Diabetes UK Type One Events Film
Earlier on in the Summer of this year, I was commissioned to make a series of documentary photographs for Diabetes UK and their Type One Events which if you ask me, are flippin' amazing!
The nationwide charity Diabetes UK put on a series of events all over the Country for children that live with Type One Diabetes. At these events, they get them doing lots of fun activities, ran by a large group of volunteers and also teach them how to manage their diabetes through shared learning experiences.
They're all such an inspiration and made me feel so lucky to be able to stand there all day, making the film and photographs. My feet began to hurt towards the end of the day and my legs wouldn't carry me up the steep hill but I had to carry on and felt awful that I considered resting. When you see how inspiring these children are, it puts your life back in to perspective.
Anyway, I'm very proud of this work. This is the film I shot for Diabetes UK...

This assignment brings my year to a close. I've been very happy with this year because all the time I've been building my business, I have also been studying Photography & Video at University and recently graduated in June 2017. So I've only been working in my business full time for 6 months and it's gone very well. Here's to an even better 2018, and I've already got a few very large scale projects being lined up.
