College photographers score with new Hibs kit

Two Edinburgh College photography students Suzi Kerr and Jimmy Reid were recently commissioned to shoot the new Hibernian Football Club 2017-18 kit. The shoot took place at the The Biscuit Factory, off Bonnington Road.

Greig Mailer, communications and marketing director for Hibernian Football Club said: “Through the Hibernian Community Foundation, the club has a strong relationship with Edinburgh College. The launch of the kit is vital and the club was extremely pleased with the contribution made by Suzi and Jimmy in producing an outstanding series of images for our campaign. The standard of photography being produced by the college Creative Industries department is a credit to the college and we would recommend Suzi and Jimmy’s talents to other clients in the future.”

The Hibernian Community Foundation sponsored the Edinburgh College Photography EXPOSED 17 exhibition at Out of the Blue, part of the college’s Glow festival.

Photography student Suzi Kerr said: “Being given this opportunity at the end of the HND course really cemented the hard work put in through the last two years. It was an honour to be asked to showcase our talents through the kit launch and especially for a club with such strong ties to the creative industries department.”
