Photographed a nice little PR job recently that involved a Wimbledon themed promotion campaign. Yep its that time of year again when everyone wears their best white t shirts, dusts of their tennis racket and eats mountains of strawberries! :-)
It's been a busy few days for me shooting a lot of PR, news and portrait jobs around Gloucestershire. I love getting out and about meeting new people and new clients. Each and every job is different whether its the amount of time with a client, location or lighting. Here's a sample of what I've been up to.
The long summer nights are upon us and everyone loves a festival! I recently shot the Wychwood festival in Gloucestershire. It's a great, fun event for all the family :-)
There are many worthy charitable causes out there but one horrible disease that has affected just about every person in the UK in one way or another is cancer. I was recently commissioned to photograph a very brave lady who has successfully fought cancer and is now in training for the upcoming Race for Life in Gloucester. The event is a fantastic way for people who have been affected by cancer to come together and show unity, have fun and raise lots of money to hopefully one day eradicate the disease :-)
Whenever I get to meet someone in the public eye it's always a buzz especially if I like what they do. This was the case with singer/songwriter Mr James Morrison who I had the good fortune of photographing yesterday. He was giving a talk on music and performing at the local P3 charity. After answering some questions he grabbed his guitar and performed a few songs!
You may get the impression that musicians are a bit arrogant ( I've met a few who are ) but not James Morrison, he was so friendly and chatty and happy to pose for a few portraits. The space I had to shoot in was severely limited but I managed to find a nice backdrop albeit in a less than glamorous place. I had to ask James to stand on a drain cover out the back with an intimidating four foot drop either side of him. :-) Thankfully James saw the funny side.
