Street Photography in Warsaw

In between my weddings I managed to squeeze in a short break to visit my good friends Dorota and Michal in Warsaw, who are also known as Whitesmoke

There is some amazing photography coming out of Poland and these 2 are at the cutting edge. The style is different to what we see here in the UK and USA – a bit more grittier, more real life, not as fluffed up.

Although I do like some fluffy photography (I’m a romantic at heart !) its good to see alternatives.

These were all shot on the D700 with one lens, the 50mm. I would have liked wider at times particularly when I was shooting the demo but when traveling I like to be as light as possible. Besides its good to practise with one lens and makes you work and look more.

Warsaw is an interesting city and not as bad as I was lead to believe. Lots of interesting buildings and architecture (some of the Soviet stuff was interesting in particular the Cultural Palace) as well as excellent restaurants and bars. And of course friendly, welcoming people. I couldn’t have had a better welcome, so thanks again Dorota and Michal and hope to see you in London next !

Pippa and Team GIST fundraising

Pip and her family have been good friends and clients over the years.

When Pip was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer last October she and her family decided to throw their efforts into fundraising to help find a cure for this. It is not a common type of cancer so a lot more research is needed. Anyhow on a recent visit I took a few wacky, fun shots of Pip which she can use for her fundraising and to give her some more publicity.

Later on this year I’ll be offering a portrait voucher for just £15. This £15 will go directly to Pip’s fundraising and will will give you £100 worth of photography. Details will follow later.

Well done Pip, keep up the good work and I hope you like the photos !
