Sat. 6th October 2018 Time: 11:30 am – 12:00 pm Claire Armitage |
Details – Claire Armitage – Photography and Emotional Expression
Every photograph should have a little piece of the photographer in it. Photography as an art should be about passion, passion for your subject and passion for the process. Emotion is at the centre of this, emotion that the photographer puts into it and the emotion that the viewer feels – the two may not be same thing but that doesn’t matter. Self-portraiture in photography is as old as photography itself. It’s not about randomly making selfies but is an artform in its own right and can allow the artist to have complete control over the scene they are presenting. It has been done by many famous photographers for lots of different reasons – it can be autobiographical, a voyage into the photographers inner psyche, or to explore a specific set of emotions. Other photographers use the self portrait to make comments on societal roles. In this talk Claire will discuss her latest 365 project and about how emotion is at the centre of this and using the project to tell a personal story.

Sat. 6 October 2018 Time: 15:00 pm – 16:00 pm Sean Tucker |
Details – Sean Tucker – “In between Tech and Story”
Sean gives a frank telling of his own journey with photography, taking an especially deep dive into the point where his focus switched from learning techniques and obsessing over gear, to being driven to find better stories to tell. If you’ve spent hours watching YouTube tutorials, and thousands of pounds on new gear, but you’re still feeling stuck and frustrated, this might be the shift in focus you need to take your photography on to the next stage of the journey. About Sean Tucker: Sean is a Photographer and Filmmaker who runs a successful freelance business and a growing online presence where he seeks to inspire like-minded creatives coming up the ladder behind. His YouTube channel in particular has grown to over 100k subscribers with over 2.5 million views, and he has an Instagram following of over 50k followers. Sean creates a vibrant and positive community online which talks about how to pursue your dream of making the thing you love to do, the thing you get paid for. Sean has a strong emphasis in all his video and speaking on being authentic and self-aware in your work, because, in a world of reality TV and vlogging, people are now hyper-aware of artifice, and can smell a sale pitch a mile away. To build an audience now takes honesty, integrity and vulnerability, and these are by words which Sean not only practices in his own work but preaches to other others as well.

Sat. 6 October 2018 Time: 16:30 pm – 17:15 pm Lee Glasgow |
Details – Lee Glasgow – “If you are easily offended, then please gather round!”
“If you are easily offended, then please gather round!” With over 400 weddings under his belt, Lee has photographed all kinds of people, from all kinds of backgrounds! The one thing that has given him confidence, is his honesty with his clients, those within the industry, but above all with himself! In this mad world of political correctness, his talk will be a celebration of frank speaking and learning that your USP is simply a celebration of yourself. Your clients will be attracted to the real you, not the hipster you’re trying to be. About Lee: In Lee’s Religious Studies school report, it said “Lee has faith, but charity is needed when marking his work!” This quote pretty much sums up his childhood education experience. From the age of 16, he entered the print trade and after passing his three year apprenticeship in reprographics and origination, he went onto creating artwork for many different applications including magazines, packaging, labels and commercial print. That industry gave him an eye for detail and more importantly an eye for what is commercially required – “What Looks Good”. His images and reputation are his qualifications, Lee has always been humble with his talent, because he believes the moment he thinks he is the finished article, then it’s time to give up! He loves all the different kinds of personalities he meets through his wedding photography from the barking mad to the painfully shy and even the grumpy ones. If he wasn’t a wedding photographer he would love to be a psychologist as people’s minds are intriguing, but this may be because he is nosey too. http://www.leeglasgowphotography.co.uk PLEASE NOTE: You will also need to buy your £5 wristband for HIPFest to gain entry |

Sun. 7 October 2018 Time: 10:30 am – 11:15 am Michelle Szpak |
Details – Michelle Szpak – Bikes, Lights and Photography
A pinch of creativity, a dash of lighting mixed together with some motorcycles…. An insight into motorcycle photography. Michelle will discuss how a shoot works for her from start to finish. The planning, creativity and ideas, the shoot and the final images. The talk will include a few detailed behind the scenes illustrations and will discuss different lighting ideas and how important light is to create the image you have in your mind. How to think out the box when considering your ideas and how to keep that creativity going. Michelle will talk from the heart about her work, her passions with the industry and the ups and downs, including some tips to keep you moving forward. About Michelle: She has been on quite a journey over the years, from starting a high street studio back in October 2009, then moving to bigger premises with staff in March 2011 (becoming a finalist in several business awards) and then on to making the leap to close the doors in 2014 to achieve a lifelong dream of living by the sea and make the transition from family portraiture (which she does still photograph for some of her life long clients) to motorcycles. There have been many highs and lows on her journey, a never-ending learning curve and a lot of knowledge on the importance of having work life balance – even if your work is one of your passions. It’s important to Michelle to get this message across to other photographers and help them to believe in themselves, their work and keep them from losing their creativity.
