About Me

My photo
Leeds, West Yorkshire, United Kingdom
I am a father of two, who has been a paramedic for 15 years and a professional photographer for around 5. That is until recently, from the 1st of May 2017 I will no longer work on the frontline full time. Instead I have made the transition from specialist paramedic to advanced practitioner and will be working full time in primary care. This blog will chart the development of myself from my current role of specialist paramedic to an advanced practitioner. In the last year I was diagnosed with Ankylosing spondylitis. Which is a degenerative condition which affects the spine. While this diagnosis saddened me obviously. It also came as a relief as I had struggled for over a year and had no idea what was wrong with me. So the diagnosis also came with some relief as I finally had a name to put to my condition. It did help me to look forward and consider a new career pathway. I am the first paramedic to work in primary care in my practice area. This is quite an accolade.

Assignment 2 - Re visited

Assignment 2 has continued and does continue. I struggled to get the people together to meet up with me.

Because of this I took the opportunity to shoot in and around Windsor, while I was staying there. It differed from my original idea, nut I felt it would be better to present something rather than nothing.

I had only managed to shoot 4 people in total before presentation day.I wanted at least 6.

As ever it is always people who let you down, I did anticipate this though.

Since the presentation I have managed to shoot a total of 5 colleagues in their home or social environment. I have been very pleased with the results, so far, I believe it has been a worthwhile project.
