Wedding photographer at the Art Gallery in Southampton, Hampshire.

Today was a wedding at the Art Gallery in Southampton with Lynda and Graham. It tirned out to be a fantastic location for wedding photography. After the ceremony and some family photos and some with the couple, we had a short drive from the art gallery to a reception at a lovely bar called Merchants, nearby at Ocean Village. It was a fantastic day to photograph and I was working with Lynda and Graham from around midday until their meal commenced at around 6pm. Thank you and congratulations to Lynda and Graham!! I have uploaded just a few images here from the day.

Please remember also - I am currently offering some very good rates and discounts for any remaining 2014 dates and into the early New Year too, subject to my availability. Whether it be a wedding, party or other special occasion, I can offer you something different and creative, yet reliable and professional! So, I look forward to possibly helping YOU too.

Golden Wedding Celebration photographer at the Brookfield Hotel in Emsworth

This afternoon I attended The Brookfield Hotel in Emsworth to photograph a special event being hosted by one of their guests. It was a Golden Wedding Anniversary party with around 30 guests attending a family reunion. You can view the website of the hotel here: www.brookfieldhotel.co.uk

I have attached a few images – it was an informal family event and was attended by around 30 people. Couples and family groups posed for some portraits in the attractive gardens at the hotel between around midday and 1.00pm. If you are organizing a similar event – why not contact me to see if I am free and might be available to cover yours? I can offer a very affordable rate for short time bookings, subject to my availability. It saves you having to take your own photos and hopefully guarantees a better all round result! 

I thoroughly enjoy working at the Hotel and especially with their Wedding and Events Manager called Jamie Drew (01243 373 363) who coordinates all their weddings and other events.

Graduation photographer in Brighton, East Sussex

All day today, I attended The Dome in Brighton to photograph an Open University Graduation Ceremony and along with six or seven other freelance photographers. We were all working for a National leading provider of graduation photography and supplier of gowns and I cover this kind of work at key times throughout the year and at a wide range of UK universities.

I was working in a studio environment from 8.30am until around 4pm. There was just one ceremony and around 350 graduates that came through the studios on this date. Whilst not my usual job, I enjoy the structure of this kind of work and also meeting a group of friendly and professional freelance photographers (most of whom are not wedding photographers) for a catch up.

I am not suposed to display or retain images from this day and so I have uploaded some samples I shot sometime earlier - just to give you a flavour of what we do.

Wedding Photographer at the Langstone Hotel on Hayling Island, Hampshire

Today I was doing the photography for a couple who married at The Langstone Hotel on Hayling Island, near Portsmouth in Hampshire. I have uploaded a few favourite images here from their day and will be showcasing just a few images from each event I photograph during 2014.
The website for the hotel is here: www.langstonehotel.co.uk I love working at this venue, with its close proximity to my base, great views over the Langstone harbour for photos and very helpful and supportive staff (thank you Sophie, Franco, Emily and the team). I am already booked to cover a whole lot more weddings here later in 2014 and 2015 too.
I have shown a cross section of images here to show you around different places and views around the hotel, where I am a well known and trusted local supplier.
I am currently offering some very good rates and discounts for any remaining 2014 dates and into the Spring of 2015, subject to my availability. Please do get in touch - I look forward to possibly working for YOU too.
