Saturday, June 2nd, 2007Well after a week of such extreme rain and winds, the expectation of a dry Saturday for the marriage between Adam Carysforth and Sally Atherton at Broome Park in Kent, was not exactly high. But upon waking early to make our departure for the ‘Garden of England,’ it was decidedly different to the preceding six […]
Cross processing and Mars Bars
Saturday, June 2nd, 2007Okay, imagine this. You take one perfectly good Mars Bar available at all good confectionary outlets and pop it in your fridge. Chill it, don’t freeze it. Mix some flour and baking soda, add a little beer, then mix until you get a batter like consistency. Heat some oil. Liberate your Mars from the fridge and coat […]
Parents, the real workers
Friday, June 1st, 2007We’re not as yet blessed with the patter of little feet, but fear not ‘Mother in Law,’ our plans to keep you occupied of a Saturday when we’re out as husband and wife photographing weddings are underway! We clearly spend a lot of time in the company of children, as the family and schools side […]
Little Alfie Agar
Friday, June 1st, 2007Congratulations to two dear friends, Andy and Sara Agar who have just welcomed their little boy into the World. Alfie Agar, weighs, well something or other, you know that us chaps are not too hot on retaining information like that. He’s doing well though and Andy’s no doubt already regailing his son with the rules of the house; […]
Naomi House Hospice
Tuesday, May 22nd, 2007In the course of a week, I have the pleasure to meet and work with a diverse set of people, commercially and privately. Today we photographically supported an event in our hometown for the Naomi House Children’s Hospice. Set up in ‘92, NHCH opened to provide respite, terminally ill care and bereavement support for children and families […]
Silchester with The Slatterys
Saturday, May 5th, 2007Boy does it feel good to return to the venue that hosted our own wedding reception; Silchester House in Berkshire. It always feels like we’re returning home and that’s a special emotion. So it was a real pleasure to follow Jennifer Newport and Martin Slattery through their day, from St. Joseph’s Catholic Church on Saturday […]
SWPP and BPPA Award
Thursday, May 3rd, 2007You know what they say, nobody thinks awards are important until they win one. I’ll be the first to admit that’s been my mantra for many a year professionally. I cringe slightly you see, when I see websites boasting of a million and one awards, ahead of the proof of what they do for their […]
Michelle Lucas
Monday, April 23rd, 2007Business and life coach Michelle Lucas visited Breathe today for commercial portraiture. The photography brief required quite tradition head and shoulder shots, although with some creative cropping and off camera eyeline focus, I think we’ve achieved a less contrived tone. I took some time to check in with Michelle’s online assessment of my career path and personal potential. A series of dropdowns rates how much […]
Award nomination for ‘Katie Ella’
Tuesday, April 17th, 2007Annabel Williams is recognised in the UK as a tutor to thousands of aspiring photographers and those already working professionally seeking mentoring in this highly competitive industry. I’ve not personally had the good fortune to meet or work with Annabel, but entered her recent awards initiative to gain some feedback for some of our signature images. So […]
South African wedding day 6: Frick’s Farm
Wednesday, April 4th, 2007Roads. More roads. More long long, very long, extremely long, straight, never veering, long roads. South Africa is vast, so yes, it does make sense to be quite matter of fact and A to B, but the odd turn and twist does make for a more interesting journey. I’ll never criticise Basingstoke’s collection of roundabouts again. […]
