On 10th of December 2009, WOW Hub has organised an exhibition showcasing the work of passionate Yorkshire photographer Jim Souper. In relaxing atmosphere with refreshments and mince pies, people had a chance to view Jim`s work as well as talk about his journey from having a dream to actually fulfilling his destiny as a photographer. During his interview, Jim talked about himself:

“I started to take photographs at the age of 6, when my father bought me a Kodak Brownie 44A for my birthday. Until a few years ago it was no more than a hobby, and I concentrated my efforts on careers in local government and then with the Halifax, where I worked in IT for over 19 years. My interest in photography was re-ignited when I bought my first digital camera, a Nikon D70. In 2006 I decided to take time out to study photography, starting a degree course in Contemporary Photographic Arts. I graduated summer 2009.

I specialised in landscape photography, using both film and digital media, and also have a strong interest in pinhole photography. I am a Licentiate of the British Institute of Professional Photography and also of the Royal Photographic Society. As a freelance I intend to not only continue in landscape photography, but also
to broaden the scope of my work to include editorial and PR work.”
