| TOYOTA was my first client at only 17! | Jamie Bufton - Photographer | 24 Jun 2024 | 00:52:46 | |
Jamie started at his local hill climb, Shelsey Walsh; he realised that taking photos for drivers was an opportunity to cover the cost of his ticket; from that point onwards, Jamie has been using his sense of problem-solving and people skills to climb the career ladder from a young age. At only 18, Jamie realises that his confidence in himself around people is the biggest asset, not the camera and lenses he has, but his words and work speak for themself.
