Thomas White Photography

Introduction: I have been working as a professional freelance photographer since 2010, with assignments all over the world. I enjoy photographing people with a passion in capturing natural moments. About me. I learnt traditional wet black and white film photography whilst studying Fine Art and Photography at Colchester Sixth Form College in the UK. After completing my studies I spent a year living in Uganda, working for different charities and organisations. I then returned to the UK to study photography at the University of Portsmouth. I continued with my love of traditional photography techniques by converting the shed in the garden into a darkroom. During the course I had his work shown in a number of different exhibitions, most noticeable being a show titled Wide Eyes in Brick Lane, London. The course resulted in gaining a BA (hons) Photography degree. After graduating I once again returned to Uganda where I started working as a freelance documentary photographer. I have worked for numerous organisations throughout Africa and further afield. In 2013 I was shortlisted for the Environmental Photographer of the Year award for my work with the African Climate Change Resilience Alliance, and had my work exhibited at the Royal Geographic Society in London. I have recently moved to the United States to be with my wife who is working as doctor in Pennsylvania. Some of the organisations I have worked with in the past are: USAID, American Cancer Society, The Mastercard Foundation, Oxfam, The Red Cross, DanChurchAid, International School of Uganda, ActionAid and many more.
