Fine Art Wedding Seminar @ Annabel Williams Studio

These images are from last weeks seminar we hosted at CPT, The Annabel Williams Studio. It was a very interesting day which started with waking up to thick cloud and very heavy rain which wasn't a good start! When I arrived at the studio I was told that two delegates couldn't make it due to an accident blocking their route - also the models we had lined up couldn't make it due to illness - not a good start!

Luckily the gorgeous Rachel was on hand to step in and wear a stunning wedding dress and we also organized a groom at the last minute so everything went smoothly in the end! Even though it was quite cloudy and grey we still managed to find some fantastic light both indoors and out.

This seminar was a first and was a great success, with some very positive feedback so we hope to run it again in 2010.

Love this one - on camera flash!

Queensberry Album feature

We were delighted to have our latest album published on the Queensberry album blog. We were thrilled when the album arrived from New Zealand but to our surprise we were so happy to get an email a few days later from Nigel saying they loved the album and took some pictures so they could feature it on their blog. You can view the blog post here including a slideshow of the full album. We look forward to hopefully having more albums showcased in the future - watch this space!

Fay & Chris Wedding

We had a great time at Fay & Chris's Wedding. They had the whole wedding at the Tithe Barn which is always a great venue to work at. With the weather on our side - a lovely relaxed atmosphere, and a fantastic looking bridal party there was no way we couldn't get fantastic images! Chris had three best men so as you can imagine the speeches were hysterical. They had tales from school, from the stag do and some pretty embarrassing large posters!

All the best for the future guys.
