Q. How is it that people can photograph an ordinary scene and make it look extraordinary?

A. Well it's not about having the most expensive gear. It's about having the skills, knowledge and creativity to see things differently and produce eye catching and expressive images that make people stop and take notice!

"The sense of community is just awesome. Everyone knows everyone and they are all really supportive and encouraging. It’s unlike anything I've ever experienced elsewhere"

We sat down with Final Year Bachelor student Kaitlyn Church, to ask her why she chose to study Photography over Law?

Was photography the only thing you were considering to study? Or did you have other things in mind?

It was a toss up between law and photography for me. Although I'm still very interested in law and politics, I decided to follow my passion for photography. I don’t regret my decision, I think it’s the best decision I’ve made.

What made you decide to choose photography?

 For as long as I can remember I have enjoyed taking photos. I used to always ‘borrow' my Dad's cameras. It was just something I always did. When I was in high school I used photography as a means of relaxation. But in my later years of high school I became  more and more passionate about the medium. I don’t remember exactly what the reason was that made me change from Law to Photography . But I’m glad I did.

PSC IS PROUD TO PRESENT FRESH 18

This exhibition represents the culmination of four years of study at PSC, for nine students who will complete their Advanced Diploma of Photography, with an Art Major.

"For my portrait of Jessica Mauboy, I wanted to create an image that would convey her depth of character, confidence and energy as a performer."

Photographic Artist and PSC Lecturer David Rosetzky is just one of the featured artists in the exciting new 20/20 Exhibition on show at The Portrait Gallery in Canberra.
David was paired with the talented Australian singer, songwriter, and actor Jessica Mauboy. 

Spring is in the air and that means sunshine, blue skies and fun activities and now is the perfect time to get organised for 2019. If you have always been interested in photography (whether as a hobby or potential career change) but not sure where to start, join us at our upcoming
