As mentioned in a previous post, I have been privileged to do some shoots at the Grand Hotel recently.
I shouldn't, but I always indulge myself with their fabulous cuisine when I visit if I have time, and this time on the recommendation of the catering manager, Annie, I had a fabulous Grand Club sandwich.. with fries...and a coffee and a biscuit... Oops!
Here is Annie with her niece, this was done nearly 2 years ago, time for another visit Annie!
Any how, this blog is about photography, not food, so I had better get on with what you come here to see. The pictures.
First, I had a 60th wedding anniversary portrait to shoot. Quite a formal set up and very different to my studio shoots, but great fun to do.
This couple had been together for 60 years. I think that is incredible!
Both husband and wife were full of spirit and it was wonderful hearing their freely given life story whilst shooting them for posterity alongside their commemorative card from the Queen.
As ever, the staff at The Grand were so helpful and made sure I had what I needed, which I did, two happy clients, well fed after their cream tea and sandwiches!
Here is a shoot I did a few weeks ago too. It was a last minute booking for a saturday afternoon, so after a full day shooting in the studio I lugged my gear to the harbour to collect the Loughlin family for a stroll on a very windy beach.!
This is what location shoots are about, fun for the whole family and capturing unique family portraits and having a great day out too! what ever the weather!
And finally, some wedding pictures from Steve and Michelle's wedding on the 29th August a brilliantly relaxed couple and a marvelous wedding!
so all in all a mixed bag of photography this week..
I'm off to wind Morgan again. The poor little feller is a little under the weather with this horrid cold that is going round, but he seems to be on the mend.
