Hampshire Event Photographer: Ladies Night at The Brookfield Hotel

This evening I attended The Brookfield Hotel in Emsworth to photograph one of their popular ‘Ladies Nights’. You can view the website of the hotel here: http://www.brookfieldhotel.co.uk/ I was the official photographer again for their event on 20th February 2010.

As you can see from the sample of photos I have attached – it was a black tie event and was attended by around 60 people. Couples and family groups posed for some portraits in my temporary studio at the hotel between around 5.30pm and 6.30pm. Later in the evening I set up my Mitsubishi Dye Sub printer and was able to print some high quality 9x6 inch mounted prints, a fair selection of which were purchased by the guests during the breaks in their event and entertainments.

Photo printing on-site can work extremely well at this kind of special event - formal but great fun. It provides added value to the clients and venue and an instant memento of the evenings celebrations. Why not contact me if you are holding a similar event, to see if I am free and might attend yours?

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.
The guests seemed to have a fantastic evening of music, dancing and fine cuisine and I didn’t finally get away after a busy evening until around 11pm.

My images will be available for viewing and sale to the participants very soon, typically within 24 hours of each event. A few sample images are shown here – just to wet the appetite.

Surrey equestrian event photographer - Elstead Riding Club Autumn Show

Today I visited a regular haunt for me in ‘photo-land’ – a field in the middle of no where, but by the village hamlet of Elstead, near Guildford!! I was the official photographer for Elstead Riding Club and the event on 11th October 2009 was their annual ‘Autumn Show’.

We had variable and slightly damp and windy weather, which doesn’t make for ideal equestrian photography conditions. Along with my colleague and second ‘shooter’ called Graham Russell we captured the various classes ongoing throughout the day and spirits were kept up with regular trips to Skips fantastic ‘greasy spoon’ catering trailer.

There was a range of show jumping classes in one ring (that I covered) and two other rings with showing and varied events throughout the day – all of which kept us both fully occupied and pretty tired by the end of the event in mid afternoon.

The images will be available for viewing and sale to the riders and their families very soon.
