Suzanne and John's wedding.....
...was in Norwich. Now I have never been to Norwich, and you would have thought that, like pretty much EVERY city in the UK, it would be fairly easy to get to. But oh no! Single carriageway for miles. Mind you, when I got there, what a pretty place Norfolk is. Anyway, the wedding. I love doing weddings where the couple stamp there own personalities and style on the day. Suzanne and John did this from the grooms blue checked Converse baseys to the Mario cake! I had a hoot, and a little tip to anyone planning their wedding...sausages and mash is a fantastic choice for the wedding meal. And John's speech was one of the best I have heard for a very long time. Hilarious and moving. I just want to offer both of them my very best wishes and hope they have a long and loving life together.
It rained all day, right up to 6pm, at which point I whisked the whole bridal party outside, with a couple of flashguns and a big reflector dish and got some really urban style shots. I think I hit the mark.

I do a lot of work for charidee mate.....
Been sooooo long since I updated this, so welcome back.
Still keeping busy, with lots of portraits and other events completed over the summer. Of particular note was the Slimming World/NSPCC Charity Summer Ball last weekend at Solberge Hall near Northallerton. Backdrop, lights camera and action..I never stopped from 8 till 1 in the morning. I met some fantastic people, and some of the pictures from later on in the evening were just fantastic. I would post them, but I haven't got permission yet, so I can't, but pop back and check out the new Morecombe and Wise...! Thanks to Donna and Michaela for making the night so welcoming, and thank-you for re-booking me for next year.
On a different tack, I was reading in the papers today about the remembrance service for Sir Bobby Robson at Durham Cathedral. To me, SBR was almost the last connection to an honourable age of football. You only had to look at the people who attended to see how much respect the man had within the game; and only because he had respect FOR the game. He was truly a giant.
Also, since I last posted, the world has lost another true legend in Les Paul. For those of you who don't know, Les Paul invented the solid body electric guitar back in 1939. What most people don't know is he also pioneered multi track recording, which is how songs are still recorded (albeit digitally) today. The word legend is applied too often I fear, but in these 2 instances, I think it is the most appropriate word.
Oh, nearly forgot. Had a great holiday in Normandy in August, with the family. Warm, relaxed and dog-free!!!

Another happy day
Well, this is the first time I have had a chance to sit down this week and commit to updating this blog.
First off, I just want to say a huge congratulations to Bev and Aaron on their marriage last Saturday. I had the honour of photographing their day, and had a fantastic time. Aaron is a member of our armed forces, and all the lads came dressed in number 2s. It is the first time I have done a forces wedding, and the uniform really helps to balance the shots. I wish them both all the very best of luck in their new life together, and I sincerely hope we stay in touch. Some of the shots attached
On a more personal note, I am off on holiday next week with the tribe, so I am planning on hammering the Olympus Trip. Will post some pics when I get back. Catch you later!!!
