Photography workshop in southampton

Posted inPhoto training

Yesterday we took Gareth to Beaulieu for his One-2-One getting to know your camera workshop and we had a great day.   We met Gareth and his now wife Genevieve when we shot his wedding back in September 2008. Last year how lovely wife Genevieve called to buy a Workshop Gift Voucher for Gareth which he used yesterday,   We started our day with a couple of hours in the studio going over his Canon 450 camera and how to get the best from it, we then headed to Beaulieu which is fast becoming a popular workshop venue for us during the winter months:-).  We had a great few hours at Beaulieu showing Gareth how to shoot in low light and also how to compose and crop in camera.

After Beaulieu we headed into the forest for a few landscapes which was fun and then back to the Studio for an afternoon of editing and shooting Gareth how to best present his photographs.

Here are a few photos from the day,  My favourite is the 5th photo that Gareth took of the Merc with the lights behind although it was hard to decide because he took so many great ones.

James, Claire and the 3 boys !

Posted inPortrait's by Jules

Last week we had a visit from James, Claire and their 3 lovely or should that be lively boys:-) and it was a whole lot of fun fun fun,   We photographed James and Claires wedding back in 2007 and got to know the boys quite well, we had known James for many years, if you take a look at this wedding post from 2007 you will see just how much the boys have grown up:-)

Claire contacted me and explained that she wanted some fun relaxed family photos for their new extension and I am pleased to say these fitted the bill nicely, Sue and I love our studio portraits in southampton and this relaxed style is us to a tee.

Take a look and let us know what you think, if you would like a photo shoot in southampton please let me know, we would love to see you soon for some amazing contemporary portraits.

workshop with a twist.

Posted inPhoto training

I dont normally post much about our workshops here but this was a great story as posted on our workshop website!,  I hope you enjoy it.

A couple of years ago I started talking to a lady on Facebook, Cathie Gardner Adams and it soon became clear that Cathie loved her photography just like me, well soon after chatting I was helping Cathie hone her skills with her Nikon D300 and we because friends,  Cathie lives in Redondo Beach, which is one of the three Beach Cities in Los Angeles County, California, United States so apart from a few conversations online I never really expected to help Cathie any further,  That was until Cathie decided to book one of our workshops to kick off her vacation here in the UK,    Cathie flew into London on Thursday night and came to stay with us in on of our B&B rooms, we had a few cocktails and a lot of laughs and then Friday morning we all headed off to our workshop studiosfor the real fun to begin.

Cathie had chosen one of our “getting to know your camera” workshops which as always starts with the camera settings and a few tips and tricks, after a couple of hours we headed off for Marwell zoo and it was such an amazing day, the sun shone and all but the snow leopards came out to play so Cathie got some amazing shots that made her very happy and me a very proud.

We then headed back to the studio to go over our trip, download our photos and of course edit them, we had such a great time and Cathie took some amazing photos which I am sure you will agree.

Cathie’s photography has gone from the ordinary (she wont mind me saying that I promise) to the extraordinary, each and every photo has that WOW factor and I am pleased and proud to have a big part in that transformation.

This morning after 2 nights we dropped Cathie off at the train station to head off to Bristol, then Bath, Glastonbury, and Edinburgh and we wish her a safe and enjoyable trip, cant wait to see some photos!

Here are a few that Cathie took yesterday at Marwell during our workshop,  you too could be shooting like this if you call and book a course!

These were all shot through either cages, wire or very thick glass, all of which we cover on our courses.
