Introduction

English girl living in Charlotte, NC, with a life-long passion for photography and a "can snap, will snap" approach.

Current Experience Level?

My main passion in life is my photography, to the point that I am often teased for never being without one of my cameras - hence the name of my website (and hopefully company, in the near future!) “My Other Limb”. I have spent the last 3 years building up a portfolio of photos, developing my photographic skills, and working on a variety of image production projects. On a professional level, I would still describe myself as a photographer-in-training, with a huge degree of energy for learning and improving my skills. I think that my understanding of photography has developed well, despite being predominantly self-taught. I currently work as an intern and assistant/second shooter with Jim McGuire at his studio in Plaza Midwood.

What is your favorite theme you photograph?

People, in all sorts of places and situations, and interacting together. Candid shots are often my favourite but I am learning to really enjoy studio portraiture, too.

What do you shoot with?

I now shoot all digital, though I did start with film years ago. I have two main cameras: a Canon 1000D (Rebel, in America) and a Nikon D3.

What do you hope to get out of the group?

I hope to meet new people (I only moved here in Oct 2011), and to share my passion for photography with like-minded folk. I would like to learn a great deal from anyone and everyone (more specifically, I think I need to learn more about flash photography, studio lighting, and better use of PhotoShop), and hopefully find some new places and inspiration for shoots.

What Eve Lloyd is saying about this Meetup Group

So far I am really enjoying it! Everyone has been so friendly; the classes are varied and well taught; it's a great way to connect with local photographers in an informal way. I'm already booked in on my next workshop!
