Daniel Webb is only 16 but he runs his own photographic company and this week he is hosting an exhibition of his work, including mini photo shoots on the spot.

Daniel, of Swindon, has about 40 photographs on show at the Post Modern art gallery in Theatre Square until Saturday, July 24. He said: “I will be setting up a small photo studio where you can get your photograph taken professionally for only £10, including a free print.”

The mini photo shoots run from Tuesday to Friday from 2pm to 5pm and 3pm to 9pm on the Saturday.

Daniel was first inspired to pick up a professional camera by his grandfather, Terry Webb, six years ago.

“He handed me my first SLR,” he said.

“I had been using my compact camera for a year before but nothing compared to the weight and professionalism of my new Canon at the age of 12 years.”

His first love is wildlife pictures, although Daniel Webb Photographic tackles portfolios for aspiring models, commercial images, fashion shoots and weddings.

“Wildlife is a real passion and to sit within nature and think about life is such a beautiful experience,” said the former Commonweal School pupil.

Entry to the exhibition is free and all pictures on show are for sale.
