Wishing you all a fabulous Christmas! I hope you get the chance to relax and put your feet up over the festive break. With a quiet month ahead, I’m finally on top of my paperwork and have even found time to rearrange the office furniture and do a bit of dusting… (bored now, please phone!).
Last June was a different story, so I have plenty to tell you about. We start with a delightful shoot for Cosmopolitan with Danielle and Matthew. They fell in love over the internet, even though they lived on opposite sides of the Atlantic… bless!

I was invited to the in-store bakery to photograph Mark at work for the ‘Who Grows It’ page of Asda magazine. Not the usual outdoor rural location this page is used to! However, with a little re-arranging, we managed to make quite a large-scale bakery look warm and cosy.
It was great fun to go behind the scenes with Cosmopolitan magazine at Manchester’s X Factor to photograph Beth Hart. Beth is the Senior Executive Producer – what a fabulous job! Walking into the venue past the crowds of potential stars, I somehow got mistaken for Jedward – how rude! Must’ve been the wind making my hair fly skywards? (Or my electric blue suit!)
My second visit to the Alexander Hospital — this time to photograph the Cardio Vascular team for their new website.
Stephen Martin, Chief Executive of Clugston, was a lovely man to photograph for Business Agenda. He was very relaxed and enthusiastic. Stephen appeared on Undercover Boss a few years back, so he’s probably used to the limelight!
Lastly, a tongue-in-cheek shoot for an article on ‘hormonal women’ for Femail. Martina Mercer, who runs a successful copywriting business, talked about all the crazy things she has done in the past while under the influence of hormones!
That’s all for now in my December ’12 news. See you in the New Year!

I visited a lovely school in my home town of Huddersfield - Moor End Academy. The pupils were really easy to work with and glad to be involved. I worked with Susan, who organised the schedule and helped me on the day. We were looking to get lots of photography of the students working hard, interacting with each other and enjoying the school environment...
Read moreHarper Green School is part of Leverhulme Academy Trust and we worked together to create positive, happy and natural shots of the pupils engaged in lessons and interacting with each other. Occasionally adding in a posed portrait that will work really well alongside a quote or a case study in the prospectus.
Read moreI was invited to spend the day with Mosaic to create some quirky fun headshots that really show the personality of the people and the company. We used 3 different background colours and played around with different expressions and poses and although the office dog took it rather seriously, he does look very handsome :-).
Read moreBox Power asked me to photograph their event to celebrate 10 years in business. Box Power is a UK not-for-profit energy consultancy, where all profits, go back into the community and support good causes. It was a lovely evening, with an amazing fire artist, plus the mayor attended – always the sign of a good ‘do’ in my book!
