Here are some recent shots I took of Judy who is an excellent Jazz singer and also a past client. These were for a new website and for promotional purposes. I must say she sung beautifully, as expected, during the session which really helped. These type of sessions are always fun to do and are becoming more frequent as people need decent images to promote themselves. Some more favourites can be seen below
Here’s some recent images from another popular bumps to babies shoot. This is an ongoing promotion which we started last year. So Mum’s to be and their families can have a session showing their bump and then have a follow up session a few months later after the baby is born.
We have some special offers on these shoots so please feel free to contact me for further details if interested. Below are some more images from the session

As well as children many like to have portraits of their pets. Here are some images taken recently of a local poodle, Molly.
They say ‘never work with children and animals’ but despite the difficulties this is often very rewarding, particularly if you’ve done a good job which the client is happy with. Molly wouldn’t sit still for long which is quite often the case with dogs so I was pleased to get these, some of which can be seen below. In particular I liked the contrast of the black fur against the white background.

I’ve always loved the retro look so I was really pleased when a colleague told me about this really cool i phone application – hipstamatic
So I tried this out on a recent trip to London and I love the results and unpredictability of it. Even the most boring looking scene can look interesting. In the 70’s as a child I owned a few crappy soviet, eastern block style cameras and loved to play around with them often processing the film in weird ways. That was the joy of photography and I guess today it has become more and more predictable with camera technology improving at an alarming rate. Its why I see now a lot of professionals (mainly American) who process their images this way as well as the increasing popularity of Lomo and Holga cameras.
Anyway this is a great application which costs a few pounds. In particular I like the square format which in many ways is easier to work with and reminds me of my early days in photography when we used Hasselblads. Below are some more favourites, let me know what you think.

Great shots Neil, 443 is a cracker – totally Cartier-Bresson 
Hi Neil,
Love the effect, strangely I was up in London earlier in the year on a street photography vibe as I have been building my folio for the course I currently am on. I was trying to create a similar effect at the time for this particular photo http://www.flickr.com/photos/deckchair/4297105575/
Definitely think I will be trying the app! I really like the photo of the people walking up the stairs with underground in background (4th from bottom).
Rich.
Everyone has been moaning about the weather recently. But it does provide all photographers, from keen hobbyists to full time pros, excellent subject matter.
Here are a handful I took during my walk to the studio each day. I’m not one of those photographers who has a camera in their hands 24/7. But I always have my i phone readily to hand which often surprises me by producing some decent images. Don’t worry though – I won’t be using it in the studio for the time being. Some more can be seen below.
