I'll be honest, although I'm very busy recently, I have very little to blog about.
Things are picking up and I know that this year is going to be my busiest so far, so thats a nice feeling!
As I got some many keepers from the Hornby photoshoot, I figured I'll share a few more with you!
Here goes





I Couldn't resist using the lensbaby for a bit, but soon gave up as it was too cold to use it. (terrible excuse!!)



I used a little strobist magic here to isolate Nathanael from the background




I wouldn't usually pride myself on this, but on Sunday morning which was the parents wedding anniversary, I got a phone call from Mummy Hornby telling me that she cried when she saw the pictures and was absolutely thrilled with them! Woohoo!!! =D
Again, if you're interested in having a photoshoot like this, please contact me!
Have a good Thursday everybody!

I've not posted for what seems like forever, I'm so sorry about that!
Things are very busy, but it seems like I didn't have much to blog about that was suiting the theme of this site!
Of course, I've still been taking all the pictures in the world, and learning more and more all the time.
I've met a load of new friends too...which is making me think about posting some of the pictures up on here anyway...we'll see.
A few months ago, our friend Mel asked me if I would do a photoshoot with her brothers and sister as a present to their parents for their anniversary. Of course, I left it far too late, the anniversary was today (Happy Anniversary Dave and Caroline!), and we only did the shoot yesterday.
Mel came round today and put the pictures in the frames and wrapped them all up.
We had a few locations lined up, and honestly, we could not of chosen a better (and colder) day. It was beautiful! I've never seen Bristol look so amazing!
Enjoy these pictures!












Baby Sam loves the cake..

I really loved yesterdays shoot, it was awesome!!
If you would like a shoot similar to this please contact me, I love doing them. They're just a load of fun!
Techy Stuff:
Again, I'm still addicted to using my little 50mm f1.8 lens, so most of yesterdays pictures were taken with it, but I loved using my 70-200mm f2.8 lens, I don't get to use it much to be honest, but when I do, it never lets me down!
The 2nd, 3rd and 4th pictures were taken with it. Look what it does to the background and the foreground, it just pulverises it into a smooth tasty puree!...sorry.
Hope you're all having a great Sunday afternoon.
I'll do my very best to provide all you wallpaper junkies with a fresh dose tomorrow!

On Saturday, My brother had his 2nd, and long awaited treasure hunt.
It took him months to arrange and took place over 3 towns across north somerset.
It was so well organised that I really think that there is a market in them selling their hunts to local people.
Leave a comment if you're interested in trying something a little different to do on a weekend.
Phil had asked me to take pictures for him, but the whole day was so frantic with some real competition between the teams, there wasn't time to stop and take a picture of everything, I ended up keeping the camera in the boot.
It all ended well with the treasure held at a village hall with a hog roast and a "portisheads got talent" show.
The day after, we met up with Phil, and his wife, Hannah on the beach for a BBQ.
Check out the pictures:

I'll be away this weekend doing this engagement session with Sam and Esther in Cheshire.
Heres another picture of them to whet your appetite until I post some after the weekend.

Peace Out
