I recently saw a post on LinkedIn that Marine and Natural History lecturer and former student at Falmouth University, Gina Goodman, has also been shortlisted, in the British Photography Awards ‘Water Life’ category.
Falmouth University, or Falmouth College of Arts, as it was known to us back then, holds a very dear place in my heart. This is where I studied BA (Hons) Journalism and later went back to study MA Creative Advertising, so it is always incredible to hear good news about it, including being named the No.1 Arts University in the UK by The Times and Sunday Times.
Although I loved photography growing up, it wasn’t until I graduated and decided to go backpacking, that I really started to take it seriously. When I later went back to study MA Creative Advertising, I was mostly found in the photography studios (which are super impressive!) However, I wanted to study a different industry that linked both journalism and photography together and this later helped me with working on PR client campaigns! And this path has lead me to the amazing honour of being shortlisted!
Well done to everyone who has been shortlisted and good luck!
