Voice – Lymm Baptist

It's not usually the case that we have two Voice concerts in as many weeks but with the launch of their first CD (with songs written and performed by the members of the choir) they have been working to a busy programme. This past weekend they were performing at the Baptist church in Lymm. With many of the choir members coming from the Lymm area it was a packed and enthusiastic audience resulting in a great atmosphere. You can find out more about Voice by visiting their website where you can also purchase their CD (which I can definitely recommend). Below are a few pictures from the event.

1980s style photo shoot

It is probably becoming obvious by this point that the 'adventure' project that I am working on is covering a number of different time periods. This is proving to be great fun for all involved as it gets everyone a bit outside of their usual range. The two shots below are part of the preparation and development work for the final project images so I feel fairly safe in sharing them with you. You will have to wait a while to see the final project images; we still have a number of photo shoots and lots of work left to do! Hair: H2O, Grappenhall Makeup: Heavenly nails & beauty,...

Voice – St Mary’s Upton

The Voice youth choir and orchestra is an organisation I have been partnered with now for some months and Saturday evening I was invited to their latest concert at St Mary's Upton to take pictures for them. Attending their concerts is always a highlight for me and this occasion was no different than usual. The event was special however as they were celebrating the release of their first CD with 18 original tracks written and performed by the choir members themselves. Many of those songs were performed on Saturday and I have to say I was very impressed. Voice have another concert on the 11th...

The adventure continues

In my earlier post 'the adventure begins' I mentioned that in the first photo shoot of this project we covered two setups. Having already shared a couple of pictures from the first of the two setups, here are a pair of pictures from the second setup of the day. As you can see, the look is very different, thanks to the hard work of the amazing ladies at the H2O hair salon and at Heavenly nails and beauty, both of Grappenhall. More pictures to follow soon! Hair: H2O, Grappenhall Makeup: Heavenly nails and beauty, Grappenhall Art direction: Hazey Hue

The adventure begins

For the past four months I have been working on the planning and organising for a new project and this weekend past all the hard work came together for the first time. With six hair stylists, two makeup artists, two models, a photographer (yours truly) and a creative director we did the first of three shoots, covering the first two of six separate setups. Exactly what the project is all about will be made clear in time. However I will be sharing a few of the pictures from each session as we go along. Below we have a pair of shots from the first of the two setups shot in this first session. Hair: H2O,...

BMW R1200 GS

Riding motorcycles is something I enjoy so it will come as no great surprise that I also like to get them in front of my camera. I am fortunate enough to own a BMW R1200GS which is a great bike and no hardship to photograph. Pulling together a selection of images for my commercial portfolio gave me the perfect excuse. A number of the images are now in the gallery section of this site; I should hopefully be able to add a few more as I complete the project. You can click here to see the gallery of images posted so far. Please take a look and feel free to let me know what you think by commenting...
