Speaking to the students about their experience Ronan Donnachie, said, “This was a fantastic experience from start to finish. To be able to take photographs of top professional sports athletes, not to mention one of my sporting heroes Andy Murray is something I’ll never forget.
Everyone was very supportive and helpful, and it was a truly invaluable experience which I’m grateful to have been given the opportunity to be part of.
Photography Lecturer Angie Isac, commented, “It’s been a great experience for the students to be able to cover 2 days of the Davis Cup and extra special that on one of the days Team GB were playing.
‘For the past two yours, due to Covid restriction, covering sports has been a bit of a challenge, so it was amazing for them to secure the accreditation and gain first-hand insight into the world of sports photography at the top level.
