Railway Continued

I've been back to my railway a couple of times since my last post. The latest weather conditions have made for interesting photographs. We'll see what spring brings.

Railway

I normally keep my personal study work private from my blog, but I've had a request to upload these so that they can be seen; obviously! My current brief is to document how nature takes back what man has discarded, so I've headed to a disused railway line. Its a great place, totally overgrown, neglected and very peaceful. I hope you like them.

Engagement 2010

Sally and Paul's Wedding

On the morning of Sally and Paul’s wedding I sat and watched the rain, praying for it to stop. No such luck. Sally and Paul’s wedding took place at Oakwell Hall on the wettest day ever. Between the down pours we managed to get a few shots outdoors of the happy couple, with umbrellas at the ready. Despite the weather it was a day full of smiles, dancing and laughing.

shakeys brother

In comparison to some, Shakeys Brother is a fairly new band on the music scene, despite this they still seem to have hit the ground running. Unsure of what to expect when I arrived, I can now say with confidence they are definitely worth a listen.

Stef and Andy

With both laughter and tears Stef and Andy's wedding day will be one that stays with me for ever. An amazing couple, totally in love! What more can you ask for! Stef and Andy I wish you both the world of happiness together.

Baby Joshua

Just been to visit the proud parents, Lisa and Dave, and their new baby, Joshua Ellis. At just six days old he spent most of the time with his eyes tightly shut. A joy to photograph and such a beautiful little boy!

Lily

This is a shot of my beautiful God daughter on her 2nd birthday and is my favourite shot of the day. She had a brilliant Peppa pig themed party which entertained the masses.

Sue and Darran

Sue and Darran chose the best day weather wise to have their wedding. The sun shone from start to finish. With closest friends and family around them they celebrated their day in style with beautiful dresses to personalised dances. A fantastic day with a lovely couple.

Snowboarding Fashion Shoot

I had totally forgotten about these images. Taken at the same time as the shoot with Rachel in Livigno, Italy, this is KT, a very good friend and snowboarding chum. Again you'll see a lot of her on my blog as she lets me take her photograph in some of the weirdest places and with the strangest fashions.

Managed to gate crash a fellow students shoot today, a brilliant set up with some beautiful vivid colours. Great Fun!! Check out the lovely photographer who allowed me to steal her model for 5 minutes. (http://sammi-sparke.blogspot.com/)

Shauna is a student at Blackpool Arts College, fantastic to work with, a beautiful and very natural smile. You'll hopefully see a lot more of her on here as the year continues!

Livigno Shoot (Italy)

My brother and Rachel got married on the 9th of May 2009. A later honeymoon (due to the lack of snow in May) took them on a trip to livigno (Italy) in January and my fabulous sister in law agreed to take her wedding dress along for a very cold photo shoot. Despite this Rachel managed to smile throughout for me and I got some lovely shots.
