It was great to welcome back former student Richie Haymes, who left the College in 2007, today as he shared his career journey and experiences in the photography industry with our sixth form photography students. Now the owner of Lenses For Hire, the largest camera rental company in the UK, Richie spoke about his experiences in the photography world and gave advice to those looking to take their passion for photogrpahy further.

His inspiring visit gave students a unique insight into the opportunities in creative industries like photography. Welcome back to Shiplake, Richie, and a big thank you for talking to our pupils!
