Course Overview
Course summary
Our Fashion Photography BA responds to the industry’s demand for agile, highly skilled graduates. Drawing on Westminster’s long-established strengths in both photography and fashion, the course combines rigorous photographic training with styling, fashion communication, digital marketing, branding and campaign development. We aim to develop confident, critically informed visual practitioners equipped to succeed in fashion photography and across the wider creative industries.
On the course, you will work with photographic and digital imaging technologies while developing an understanding of fashion photography as a hybrid discipline, informed by the wider context of the fashion industry, where image-making sits in conversation with fashion media, creative direction and contemporary digital practices. This interdisciplinary approach enables you to produce work that is visually compelling, strategically informed, and responsive to the creative and commercial contexts of today’s fashion landscape.
You will explore fashion photography as both a historical and contemporary practice, gaining insight into styling, identity, and visual culture from theoretical, cultural, and practical perspectives. These ideas will inform your creative development as you produce fashion editorials, develop visual concepts, create digital content, and build professional campaign portfolios that reflect your individual creative direction.
Throughout the degree, you will benefit from career development opportunities that extend beyond graduation. These include industry-led briefs, practitioner talks, workshops and field trips to fashion, photography, and media environments.
