I USED TO BE A STUDENT

'I Used to Be a Student Once' is a photo essay about studying for a Master's in Fashion Photography at the London College of Fashion. As an artist working mainly with photography, I documented the experience of being a student from autumn 2021 till the end of the course in February 2023. At the time, I did not think of these images as a project. Rather, it was a reflective and intuitive wish to capture moments that I knew would become cherished memories later on. After completing the course, I created a series from this footage that showcases the diverse cohort of students studying, participating in workshops and photoshoots, working on projects, hanging out, travelling, and having fun.
