WPPI Convention in Las Vegas, Nevada

Well I have just returned from an amazing trip to Las Vegas in the USA for the annual WPPI (Wedding and Portrait Photographers International) convention. It is the biggest of its type in the world that offers training, support and inspiration to wedding and portrait photographers. Photographers and speakers from across the US and the rest of the world meet and share ideas, techniques, and business acumen across the industry. The trade show is just enormous with so many companies exhibiting some really exciting products for the social photography market.

I was also lucky enough to get a couple of days to myself and visited Bryce Canyon National Park, Zion National Park and the Grand Canyon. Thanks to all those who shared their time away with me on the road trip - Steve, Jana, Mark and Dennis. I also met up with more fellow photographers for the convention, David DLM, Mark, Shane, David M, Charlie and Simon. Thank you all for helping me to have the best time....roll on next year!

Please enjoy this slideshow of some images taken whilst I was away....

Fine Art photography in Marrakesh, Morocco

Well I haven’t posted in a while as we have been busy in the studio sorting orders out for our portrait clients and enjoying some time off over the Christmas period. Kirsty and I visted the amazing city of Marrakesh back in September and I have only just got round to working on some of my favourite images. This place is amazing and whilst the people there don’t like to be photographed it really is full of colour, culture and interest. If you are thinking of going yourselves, then I would suggest no longer than 3-4 days unless you plan to visit other parts of Morocco such as the Atlas mountains. Anyway here are a few of my favourite pictures...

Everything went so well for my little sister! The weather was just gorgeous, the dress and flowers looked amazing, and the couple - just meant for each other. Even my mother who has never flown further than Italy was their for the celebration. The ceremony took place outside overlooking the grounds and was all very romantic. After the photography we all sat down to an amazing BBQ feast of food, followed by some very moving speeches, given by the Father of the Groom, Brother of the Bride, and of course the Groom and Best Man.

All the images are available to view from our on line shop NOW. If you were a guest and have any questions just call 01638 601571 or email me. We allow the couple to see all the pictures first - so please bookmark this page until then!

Holidays!

Hi everyone. Well I have not posted for a while because I am been on an amazing holiday with Kirsty, my brother and his wife and my dear mother! The reason for going together was that my sister got married on 5th April in Australia to a great guy called Lewis. My sister now lives in the beautiful city of Perth, Western Australia.

I will be posting a preview of wedding photographs (as the official photographer!) and also some great images of our travels!

Porto, Portugal

Kirsty and I have just returned back from our annual training week. This year we went to Porto in Portugal. There were about 18 in the group who are all full time professional wedding and portrait photographers. We take the opportunity to shoot some images for ourselves that we don't normally have time for at home, and also share business ideas that range from photographic technique, marketing and digital post production. It is also an opportunity for us to recharge the batteries ready for another busy wedding season.
