Christkindelmarkt in Leeds

Last weekend was a rare weekend off entirely with the family and we visited the German Market in Millenium Square in Leeds. Really you have to go if you live anywhere near. This is the perfect place for stocking filler shopping and since I'm half German (Dad was from Dresden) I make a point of going every year. Shame I didn't have my gear with me but I did manage to persuade a poor unsuspecting member of the public to take a snap of Kirsty, me and the kids just down the road outside the Town Hall. I know it's a little early but here's a little festive card for you...

Peter Pan

This weekend we're launching an exciting new Portrait Product and we're announcing it via a full page ad in the glossy guide for Peter Pan at the West Yorkshire Playhouse. If your family are looking for a great show this Christmas and you live in West Yorkshire, well, Peter Pan could be just the thing...

Richard and Kate

Here's a recent preshoot featuring Richard and Kate on a very wet afternoon in the centre of York. The wedding's at the end of November which is notorious for very wet days. I say, bring it on.. Whatever the weather, the pictures will look just fine. Can't wait! Bye the way the indoor shots were taken at The Grange Hotel in York. A privately owned Regency Hotel that would be perfect for smaller wedding. The decor inside is beautiful. Check out the website http://www.grangehotel.co.uk/

Claire and Luke - The evening

For those who have been following this strand in the blog. I'm featuring 1 wedding from start to finish to illustrate the entire creative process. Here are some shots from the evening which was at The Oracle in Leeds. If I can, I try and invite the couple outside for an evening walkabout. It's only brief and it allows the couple to get some air and me to get some real wow shots using off camera flash and video light and whatever ambient light is to hand...
