A trip to Scotland

As I mentioned in my last post I was heading up to Scotland and what a weekend to choose, glorious sunshine! While the trip was largely about seeing friends and family I did manage to squeeze in a photo shoot with two very cute Border Terriers!

It was a great shoot with a combination of studio and location and while the young pup was a bit boisterous some great images were captured! You can see a couple more of the images on my Facebook page as well as taking advantage of a great special offer (details on the page if you're not aware of it already).

Along with this I made it to a horse event to watch my younger brother compete, was a really good fun day out.

The glorious weather also gave me a chance to relax in the sun and recharge after a busy time, but with the world in bloom it was hard to put the camera down!

The rest of the week is going to be busy with some web work to do and a shoot with a pair of Basset Hounds.

A weekend in Herefordshire

My self and Katy (my wife, occasional assistant and photographic guinea pig) decided to have a weekend away in lovely rural Herefordshire for her birthday. On the Friday we had a great night out and enjoyed a superb part open mic night organised by the remarkable guitarist and musician Tom Richardson. The second half of the night was a 45 minute set by Sarah Jones, if you haven't heard Sarah play I would highly recommend doing so, she'll blow your mind, in fact, here's a short video done during the night.

On the Saturday I managed to squeeze in some portrait and pet photography which was a lot of fun!

I'm no landscape photographer, although I have been known to dip in to it from time to time for personal enjoyment, but with landscapes as stunning as Herefordshire it would have been wrong to come away without a few shots.

Next weekend is another trip away, this time to sunny Scotland! But I'm going to be photographing a pair of Border Terriers while I'm up, so stay tuned for images, here, on Facebook and at DeviantDog. There are also some offers up on Facebook, get them while they're still on!
