Photographers please have a look!

Hi I have just signed up for a course at my school called ‘Gold Award’ where I have chosen photography as my part of the course. My brief is to find a professional/semi professional photographer to research/interview and find out such things as their career path. The photogrpaher I choose ideally would be participating in an up coming exhibition within the next few months/year.

Mu question to everyone here, is anyone here a professional photographer who would be willing for me to do a short interview by email with them, who are also possibly planning/participating in a future exhibition and would not mind me using some of thier photographs as examples in my portfolio.

I apologise if this is in the wrong place but I thought I would start in the most appropriate area which is my interest in aviation, please feel free to delete/move this post if you feel it is not appropriate.

Any help/suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks
