Hi Billy,
It would be great to keep your hobby going. Many Regiments have a Facebook page where they upload photos and videos to update families and friends, as well as showing the work they do. You would need to message and discuss submitting content with the owner of the page and this will be under their discretion.
The Army also have a Film and Photography competition each year. I have included a link below to the main page and a second link to the top tips page.

Hi billy, thanks for your question.
There is a photography trade in the royal logistics corps.
The course is 8 months long and gets you registered on the British Institute for Professional Photographers.
You will travel across the world capturing the work of our armed forces with the latest top of the range equipment.
The trade is not direct entry from civilian street and requires the rank of Lcpl with 2 reports to apply to attend a selection course. The selection course is 5 days, if you are successful you will be given a date to start your course.
I hope this answers your question
