Some graduate photographers have turned to the social market, with some success. Now a rising star in new style social photography, Amanda Duncan graduated from NESCOT with ambitions to become a successful people photographer. She has also managed a very successful Venture portrait studio therefore following the latest portrait and digital trends.

She accompanied top portrait and wedding photographer David Ward on a seminar tour of Europe and quickly found that the attitude and ambience of European social photographers more to her taste. More importantly, she soon sensed that there was a growing demand for innovative images.

"I'm very influenced by Vogue photographers like Nick Knight. Artistic interpretations are vital to good portraiture and exciting wedding photography, but I also believe that a photographer should say something genuine about the client in his/hers photographs.
