Chilton Memories - Nisha Haq Photography

Hi Everyone

Well Saturday 5th March was a success and Laura Rouse managed to capture great photos from the photo booth session on the day. It was a fun day and achieved nostalgia amongst visitors. Various people brought in mementoes that Portia and I photographed to document and when I had spare time I managed to take a few shots of what was happening to post here!

This photo was taken of the Chilton Memories wall where people wrote their favourite memory of Chilton Trinity. In post-processing this photo I layered various photos of this wall to create this effect and added a gradient layer and a dark gaussian blur. Hope you like it! More snaps of the day to come :D

So What's This Project About?

Hi Everyone!

So this is the new blog where we hope to bring together various generations of students, ex-students and ex-staff from Chilton Trinity Technology College. We hope to share memories and stories both past and present from people in the community and ex-students from all generations. This is a Somerset Art Works and Company of Voices - Making Matters project. This community project is working towards an Open Day at Chilton Trinity Technology College on Saturday 5th March.

This day will involve photography by Laura Rouse, local based professional photographer, where creative photography will be fused with memories, entertainment and a buzzing atmosphere. As the Chilton Trinity school building will soon be demolished and replaced, Somerset Art Works has launched this exciting project to help bring the community closer and recognise the place the school has played in the lives of local people.
Large scale photographic portraits will be produced for permanent display in the new school building, visually linking the new school to its history.

Feel free to follow this blog for regular updates and join our new Facebook group page.

Check out the logo I made for this project and support this page! :D
