Rachael & Ryan's Pre Wedding Shoot

Rachael and Ryan are getting married at Sutton Staithe in July. Our pre-shoot took place at the local hotel during a glorious sunny morning. We spent a couple of hours having fun in the children's play park and by the river, it's going to be stunning in the middle of summer. A lovely couple who are putting so much into their big day... loads of bridesmaids, men and ladies in uniform (Ryan is in the RAF) it's going to be great.

Rob & Harriets' Pre Wedding get to know the photographer

I had the pleasure of meeting Rob and Harriet last weekend to go over the finer detail of their forthcoming wedding at Lenwade House Hotel. The weather was kind and the daffs were out in force, it will be a different scene in May when the wedding takes place but just as beautiful by weeping willow. Looking forward to the big day .

Keeping Abreast - The Gallery Set

I arrived back from skiing and went straight into a back stage shoot for the Gallery Haircutters at the Keeping Abreast 'More than Just Fashion' show in Norwich. Keeping Abreast are a breast cancer reconstruction support group doing some fantastic work offering support to women who have been newly diagnosed with breast cancer and facing the possibility of mastectomy, and also women further down the line who are also considering reconstructive surgery.

The Gallery is run by my good friends Adrian and Mandy Dunham, they have been strong supporters of the charity from the outset and provided a dazzling display of hair and fashion beauty. I was back stage shooting the preparations and took the opportunity to set up a mini studio to capture the models at their best... Here is just a few.

Press shoot for Nelsons Journey

I was asked to shoot a press shot for our local rag.....

Nelson's Journey is a Norwich based charity which supports children and young people under the age of 18 years, living in Norfolk, who have experienced the death of a significant person in their life e.g. parent or sibling.

Law firm Kester Cunningham John have kindly donated office space for the charity to base itself while it conducts a fundraising campaign to build its own facility.

21 years in

Today it's my wedding anniversary, Janie and I got hitched in 1990. But we go way back....she practised her hairdressing on me and I practised my camera skills on her when we were both training.... This was one of the early shots and I knew then there would never be another woman for me.... love my missus.

Looking through the window...

More from the shoot with Veronica, with a bit of PS tweaking

More lightpainting in the dark winter nights

I thought I would share some of my latest creations using all manner of lights and gizmos. The thing to remember here is these images are complete one-offs. I guess any photo is a one off but these are original artworks. If you fancy one on your wall it can be arranged..
