Come join us at Urban HQ for inspiring talks and connect with our incredible creative community in Swansea with a few drinks and a slice of pizza.
Nick Morrish
A life in Photography.
A look at my career from Press Photographer to Business Owner. Sharing some of my favourite pictures, things I’ve learned and some of the “What if” moments.
Nick started as a Press Photographer on the South Wales Argus, before moving on to be an in-house content creator at British Airways. He’s run Morrish & Co for 6 years, working with businesses of all sizes creating photography and video for internal and external marketing.
Morgan Johnson
The invisible half of a photoshoot.
Morgan Johnson is the founder of Cart, a photo & video production agency working with fashion, beauty and lifestyle brands. She trained as a photographer before spending four years at ASOS across shoot coordination and on-set production, then built Fenwick's first in-house photo studio from scratch. She now runs Cart, working with brands including Sainsbury's, Argos, Katie Loxton and Space NK. In this talk, she pulls back the curtain on the work behind a photoshoot most people never see.
