Joshua and Friends

I snapped this of Joshua with his cuddly toy friends recently to try out my new lens. He was a great model and just lay there nice and patiently for Daddy!

Landcapes - Part 5

For the final post of the landscapes I've photographed, I have chosen this image of Aira Force waterfall, in the Lake District. Located at Ullswater, you get to the falls via a short walk up hill from the car park. The trail leads you up to the waterfall and then down the otherside and back to the car park. A perfect way to work up the appetite for that Lakes Sunday roast dinner!!!

Landscapes - Part 3

More of a cityscape than a landscape - this picture of the liver building was taken a couple of years ago when the QE2 docked in Liverpool. As we were walking back to the car we crossed a bridge and I saw this shot and loved the reflection in the water.

Mum's Birthday

It was my Mum's Birthday earlier in the month - we had a BBQ for her to celebrate the occasion, so thought I would get a few candid shots on the day.













Landscapes - Part 2

This waterfall is located at Tresaith Beach, Ceredigion, West Wales. Tresaith is a lovely beach and is located about 7 miles from my Dad's caravan park. www.llaninacaravanpark.co.uk It is great for families, with the beach being enclosed both sides by the cliffs, great for keeping an eye on the kids!!!! The waterfall is only accessible when the tide is out and crashes down from the cliffs above into the rock pools below.

Landscapes - Part 1

I haven't posted any landscape shots on my blog yet and to be honest, I don't take that many of them - my wedding photography and portrait work seem to remain the main source of my photographic inspiration.
However, to give you all a bit more of an insight into my photography, I thought I would post a landscape image a day for the next 5 days showing some of the personal photos I have taken on my travels near and far.
Day 1 - Cocoa Palm, Bodu Hithi in the Maldives. A beautiful island and an unforgettable trip. Taken on our return to the island from a sunset cruise arriving just in time for cocktails!!!!

Angela and Chris

Angela and Chris are a great couple - we met up for an engagement portrait session a week ago and they proved to be total naturals (by Chris' own admission) in front of the camera - looking at the images I totally agree!!!! I am delighted that they have chosen me to photograph their wedding day and am really looking forward to working with such a nice, friendly and obviously in love couple. Hope you both enjoy the images and I can't wait to photograph your special day.
