It is with sadness that I announce that I will be leaving the Carlisle Photo Festival, but I know that the new team will do great things with it. The new team is very ambitions with great ideas and I am very much looking forward to visit the Carlisle Photo Festival next year.
It has been a joy for me to see how a small idea could develop into an international photo festival, I hope that the Carlisle Photo Festival will keep inspiring emerging photographers to exhibit their work.
As for myself, I will be seeking new photographic opportunities and challenges in editorial and curating, in London and Copenhagen, Denmark.
I wish the new Carlisle Photo Festival team and exhibitors the very best and good luck in the future.

"Photographs are all in some way about memory – about freezing a moment in time and retaining it – and every photograph instantly becomes an image of a time that has passed. We may keep photographs to remember long forgotten moments, look at them to learn about a time before we were born, or perhaps use them to reinforce first hand memories so that they remain at the forefront of our minds."
Open: 15th – 20th April 2013, 9.30 am to 5pm
Address: PARADISE COURT, (off Castle Street), CARLISLE, CA3 8TD
