Background

About Chel Ramsey

I graduated with a Master of Fine Arts degree in Photography from the Savannah College of Art and Design in 2011. Prior to completing my M.F.A, I spent four years pursuing a Bachelor of Arts degree in Art and graduated from The University of Mississippi in 2009. Throughout my photographic career, I have worked as a photographer and photo editor for The Daily Mississippian, as well as a photographer for The Ole Miss at the University of Mississippi. I also worked for The Ranger Rocket and The Rocketeer at Northwest Mississippi Community College. I had the opportunity to study abroad in Lacoste, France, as well as travel to Tanzania, Africa to study abroad on a photographic safari. I have been endowed with several honors and leadership scholarships throughout my schooling. I gained teaching experience, as I participated in a graduate teaching internship while in Lacoste, France. I interned with the Houston Center for Photography’s exhibitions department in 2011. My photographic work has been published in SHOTS Magazine, F-Stop Magazine and can also be seen in the Best of Photography 2011 book published by Photographers Forum. My work was also published in One Life Photos, An International Photography Competition book in 2012, as well as in several local juried shows presented by the Yoknapatawpha Arts Council in Oxford, MS. I am always looking forward to what the future has in store.
