Sam is one of my grooms this year, not only is he a lucky guy marrying a beautiful girl but he’s also one hell of a talented musician and singer – some guys get all the luck! I was more than happy to offer Sam a promotional shoot for his music career. We had planned…
Briony and Kev are so madly in love they could hardly keep their hand off each other during our photoshoot yesterday, it sure does help make some great loved up shots though. We went to Cannock chase for their shoot and unfortunately the light was starting to fade a little so we had to work…
I was very happy to have been awarded two silver awards for wedding photography by the IPPN this month. The first was this beautiful bridal portrait of Marie taken at Packington Moor in December. This just goes to show how less can be more as there is nothing fancy or complicated about this shot. It is simple…
Gemma and Rob are getting married at one of my favourite venues, The Moat House in Stafford. Their engagement session was last Saturday morning, it was bitterly cold but with a very strong low sun, fortunately the location had plenty of trees to use as shelter from the sun. I’m really looking forward to Rob…
Amy and Matt are set to get married at Warwick House in March. The great thing about being a west midlands wedding photographer is the sheer amount of high quality venues there are within the local area. We decided to do the engagement shoot in the beautiful public grounds of Coombe Abbey on what was…
Well my first wedding of 2013 was on 19th January, the weekend of heavy snowfall! Georgie and Si got married at st. Giles church in Willenhall and then onto the County Hotel in Walsall for the evening reception. The happy couple booked me as their wedding photographer over 12 months ago but have brought their children…
Something slightly different from me this month, a well placed candid shot of a bride having her veil straightened out by her father upon arrival at the venue. This image won me a bronze award in the November “International Professional Photographers Network” monthly challenge. The judges were impressed with the timing of the capture and…
Billy and Digger came for a photoshoot on Saturday and boy were they fun..difficult to shoot…but great fun non the less! I’m a real dog lover and these guys were lovely, Billy (the tan colour dog) is Diggers son, though they had equal amounts of energy and loved their treats as much as one another….
On 21st December I had the absolute pleasure of photographing Marie and John’s wedding at the stunning Packington Moor, near Lichfield. Being the shortest day of the year I was a little nervous about how quickly it may go dark, fortunately we were lucky with the weather. It was as good as we could of hoped…
30th November saw me make the journey up to Derbyshire to help out Simon Revill with a wedding at a very modern hotel near Chesterfield. It was a crisp cold winters day but fortunately nice and dry. Although the low strong sun made for some tricky lighting we worked hard to make the best of it….
Amy and Charlie came round for some portrait photography as a surprise for his Dad. Charlie is only two but was really good in front of the camera, plenty of laughs and smiles, he was a pleasure to shoot! I tend not to use too many props for my children’s photoshoots, just a few favourite…
It doesn’t half get busy with family portraits leading up to Christmas, and I wouldn’t have it any other way! The Turnbulls came round for a family shoot, and brought little foxy the dog with them too. It really wasn’t a hard job photographing such a photogenic family, though getting the little ones to look…
