Birthday Special Event Photographer in Hampshire.

Today was a little different for me. I was doing the birthday party photography for Karen and Dave at the Cowplain Activity Centre. It was a fancy dress James Bond 007 evening with all the guests had made a real effort to join in with & this made for some unusual and FUN photos.
We captured some family and group photos of all the 75 guests as they arrived. Starting a little prior to 7pm, I covered some family photos and then group photos until around 9pm, at which point the disco took priority over photos. It was certainly an enjoyable evening and Karen and Dave were a pleasure to work with.
The images will be available for viewing for Karen and Dave and their family and guests very soon. What a fantastic birthday cake too!!
The venue has a website here: www.cowplainactivitycentre.co.uk if you are interested in making an inquiry.
If you might be organizing a similar event, please do not hesitate to get in touch & see if I can help you. Event photos can add value and FUN to your event and I can tailor a service to suit the event and your budget. Prints and digital files are available at affordable rates and means that the guests can have a memento from your special day or event.

Surrey equestrian event photographer. Wey Valley Riding Club Spring Dressage event at The Priory EC

Today I visited a regular previous haunt for me in ‘photo-land’ from earlier in my career as an event photographer – the Priory Equestrian Centre, Frensham in Surrey. I was the official photographer for Wey Valley Riding Club and their Spring Dressage event on 18th April – one of a range in their Omnibus 2010 Schedule.

We had pretty amazing and warm weather, which made for reasonable opportunities for equestrian photography. Albeit, sunny days do make for directional light and harsher shadows, resulting in challenging conditions to photograph ‘action’ shots.

I captured the various classes ongoing throughout the day and focused primarily on the outdoor arena, until around 2pm when that section completed. There were two arenas, plus a warm up area and varied classes / events throughout the day – all of which kept me fully occupied and pretty tired by the end of the event in mid / late afternoon.

The images will be available for viewing very soon. For a limited time of around 6-8 weeks you can view all my images in the order online section on the website: http://www.martinlewis.biz/ There are a few images here, just to give you a flavor of the event.

Why not contact me if you require photographic coverage for a similar event. I have covered One Day Events, Pony Club, dressage, show jumping, cross country, endurance rides, indoor and outdoor showing, training or even charity equestrian (or golf!!) events.

Hampshire Event Photographer - The Brookfield Hotel - Ladies Night - 6 March 2010

Tonight I attended the Brookfield Hotel in Emsworth to photograph one of their 'Ladies Nights' again. You can view the website of the Brookfield hotel here: http://www.brookfieldhotel.co.uk/

As you can see from the photos I have attached, it was a Black Tie event and was attended by around 70 people. Couples and family and other groups posed for some photos before an evening of fine cuisine and entertainment.

My images are now live for viewing and potential sale to the participants of the event, although - I was also printing and selling photos later during the evening.
