2022 Review Part 1 – Photographer Norfolk
I know I've been incredibly quiet here for a couple of months but it's been slightly manic. I'm not complaining but I miss checking in and letting you all know what I've been up to. It's that time of year for my Review. As I started to get together the images, it suddenly hit me I was going to have to split this year's review. There have been so many wonderful studio sessions and weddings, it was impossible to squeeze them all into one slideshow. So without further ado, here is Part 1 of the 2022 Review. It made me realise just how busy I have been and I'm eternally grateful to all my clients past and present for your support. As a small business, it's true we do a little dance everytime we get a customer and it makes a world of difference to us, so I thank you again for your support this year. Keep an eye out for Part 2 later this month xxx  Read the full article

Dance then wherever you may be… Studio Photographer Norfolk
Well I've been having a fabulous time shooting wonderful dancers! I always enjoy trying new things and dance photography is something I had not really got my teeth into so I decided to run some complimentary sessions to build up a portfolio for future work. I had an extremely good response and lots of booked sessions. And in good old sods law, I then decided to catch Covid so I had to rearrange everything once I was feeling better. But fear not, I have recovered and been shooting dancers nearly every day for a week! Here's just a few for your enjoyment xx   Read the full article

Alice & Helen – Carousels Galore – Wedding Photographer Norfolk
My first wedding at the Garden Pavilion, Thursford and probably the best wedding of the year so far! The weather was perfect! The venue stunning. And Alice & Helen were absolutely fantastic, along with all their family and friends. We couldn't have wished for a better day. So much fun and laughter all the way through. As always, here's a sneak peek but it was a tough call trying to limit the number of pictures to show. I hope you enjoy the pictures as much as we enjoyed capturing these memories xxx

Becki & Lee - A Rural Affair...
Well the weather was fantastic (and we dodged the massive heatwave we have now) and the whole day was absolutely beautiful. From an idyllic church ceremony to a reception at home on the Farm, every little detail was exquisite! I always love to post a sneak peek from every wedding I am honoured to be asked to photograph and this one is no exception! Although I found it hard to narrow down which images to show first. So please enjoy Becki & Lee's fabulous day with me....

What’s been going on? A little update
An update from BBP HQ - Photographer Norfolk
This might be a long one and apologies for not posting for a while but it's been pretty manic here at BBP HQ. So a little update is well overdue on what's been happening since my last post back in April!!
Well....later in April saw me at the Sandringham WI to document a visit from This Morning for the Queens Jubilee. Some behind the scenes images for publication in their magazine and for the members to have for their scrapbook of memories. Followed by Amanda & Kevin's wedding at The Assembly House. A beautiful intimate affair and an absolute dream... Then it was into May with Emma & Leigh's wedding (moved because of Covid, but so worth it) with a beautiful ceremony and fantastic reception!  Then June was just round the corner and then it went a little crazy with Emma & Nick, Lisa & Rod and Tim & Evaldas, all with their own individual flair and beauty...  Busy busy busy! July has started the same with a Thank You session for the volunteers who work on the SOS Bus in Norwich, a complimentary portrait session to show off their new uniforms for all the hard work and dedication they give to this extremely valuable service for the city of Norwich. Today I have just finished editing Hallie's Cake Smash session which was a lot of fun. Going forward July is extremely busy with weddings and some commercial work too. Phew! I think I've caught up now and apologies for the long post. I hope you have enjoyed reading it and catching up. Keep an eye out for my next post - it could be a picture of me dressed up for a special night out!! Watch this space!

The Societies' Convention 2022 - What a week to remember!
Well the dust has settled and I'm back in front of my computer editing and working away with a massive smile on my face! I had been looking forward to The Societies Convention last month so much after missing it because of the pandemic and it was absolutely great to get back together with like-minded creatives and spend 5 days doing something I love and enjoying their company. After arriving at the Novotel West in London's Hammersmith, I went to my room which I should have been sharing with Rachel, another volunteer helping with the Convention, but unfortunately she had been struck down with Covid, but Rachel did arrive later in the week after testing negative and we had a great time, albeit shorter than it should have been. I attended the meetings about the 20"x16" Print Competition to refresh my memory as it had been 2 years since I had been part of the print handling team and it was good to have a refresher and get our bearings for the competition starting the next day. The 20"x16" Print Competition is an international competition with thousands of entries sent in, where 5 judges scrutinise the images and then score them. Any print gaining 80 or more points is awarded and hung in the exhibition at the Convention's Trade Show for all to see. There are finalists and winners for each category which are announced at the Awards Dinner on Friday night. I was lucky enough to be awarded a merit and my image was proudly hung in the exhibition for all to see!The Print Competition runs for 2 full days and it is hard work being a Print Handler but also very educational listening to the judges' comments and taking onboard their views. Also seeing all the beautiful prints in all the different categories and ideas you can gain from seeing them. After each day's competition, we liked nothing more than a well-earned drink in the bar. Here I am with Nicole and Kim relaxing after a hard day. Â
 Not only was I helping with the Print Competition but I would be delivering a talk on Saturday about getting into wedding photography. My presentation was planned and ready, along with a sample of my albums for people to see. But first, on Friday (my only day to myself) I wanted to catch up with friends and colleagues, take a stroll around the Trade Show and go and see all the other exhibited prints in all their glory.
 Then came the highlight of the week, the Awards Dinner. We all got dressed up, had a few drinks before the event and then spent a great evening celebrating everyone's achievements, not only in the Print Competition but in the Monthly Competitions that run all year. This, together with photographers gaining qualifications ranging from Licentiateship to Fellowship, an evening of celebration. I was not nominated for any awards this year (or so I thought), until the Special Achievement Award speech started. Myself, Nicole and John are affectionately named the "The A-Team" of print handlers for our dedication and expertise in our role within the Print Competition. Even when the mystery recipient was part of "The A-Team" I still didn't think for one moment it would be me. My first thought was John. He was my teacher when I started print handling many years ago.  As soon as I heard my name, I burst into tears! I was overwhelmed and still well up now when I think about it. I was so proud to be nominated and receive the Special Achievement award but I missed most of Terrie's speech as I was just so happy and crying! Here is the speech and why I received the award:- "This year we are awarding our Special Achievement to somebody who, not only has been a consistent and reliable supporter of The Societies… but also who seeks opportunities to be a consistent and reliable supporter of everybody they come into contact with. This person, for whom photography has been a passion from a young age, thrives on taking images with emotion and meaning. They have owned a camera for most of their lives and have won numerous awards with their images, including many with us. This person has not only been a member with us since 2008… but during that time they have given back to the industry time and time again by volunteering on our 20x16 print handling team… being part of what we affectionately call ‘The A-Team’ who you will usually find in Room 3 during the judging. But volunteering for Belinda isn’t restricted to The Societies, as, for many years she has volunteered for St John Ambulance… something she got involved with after doing a training course through work. Throughout the Covid-19 Pandemic Belinda was instrumental in providing training to those involved with the UK’s Vaccination roll out, and since the restrictions have lifted, you’ll often find her at 1am on a Saturday morning manning the SOS bus in Norwich town centre. If you want to see photos of her and her colleagues with huge smiles on their faces as they serve people in their local community I suggest adding Belinda as a friend on facebook. So, this year we wanted to celebrate somebody who not only has given back to OUR industry, but also who literally goes out of her way to support, encourage and empower everybody who she comes into contact with. Belinda, I know you are probably sat in disbelief and feeling a little shaky… but I’d love it if you could make your way up to the stage to accept your Special Achievement Award." Suffice to say, I was in shock! I didn't stay to give a speech on stage, just shell-shocked but SO SO PROUD! I found out afterwards that my family had known for ages and had kept it a secret (too well I think!).So the Awards night was an absolute blast! In fact the whole Convention was fantastic and I had really missed it during the pandemic. My certificate and award are proudly displayed in my studio and I have such wonderful memories of the Awards night and the love and good wishes from everyone there. I'm counting the days till the next Convention in 2023. In the meantime though, I shall be attending one of The Societies' roadshows, attending Judging School later in the year, and concentrating on my business which I love. So ta-ta for now and I hope this blog post brightens your day too x Read the full article
The Societies Convention 2022 - Photography Norfolk
Before the pandemic The Societies' Convention was the highlight of my year. My last visit was in January 2020 and who knew a global pandemic was about to hit. So, the Convention was cancelled until NOW! The Societies' Convention 2022 opens on Wednesday 15th March 2022 at the Novotel Hotel West, Hammersmith, London and I can't wait!! With Business School, Superclasses, Masterclasses, 20"x16" Print Competition and trade show, there's something for everyone.  The Convention is an absolute must for all photographers, professional and amateur, kicking off with Business School, education with Masterclasses and Superclasses from numerous national and international speakers, all accomplished photographers in their own right, sharing their knowledge and experience with all.  A unique 20"x16" international print competition with entries from around the globe but, even better, are judged live and you can watch for FREE! It is very educational viewing the entries and hearing the judges' comments and scores and an abundant Trade Show with the very best retailers, suppliers and professional labs all keen to show you the very latest offerings.  And to top it off, a glittering Awards Night where the Photographer of the Year, amongst other awards, is crowned.   The Convention for me is 5 days of pure indulgence in education, and fun meeting up with friends and colleagues from around the world, checking out the trade show for the latest additions to the photographic industry in equipment, products and services, with free demonstrations running throughout the show. My favourite part is being part of the Print Handling team for the 20"x16" Print Competition where, as a team, we announce the prints and display while the judges are commenting and scoring, followed by collating all the high scoring images for the final judging. I have learned so much from listening to the judges' deliberations, it is well worth the time and effort given.   Apart from meeting great friends and colleagues this year, I've entered some images into The Societies' Print Competition and I'll be presenting my very own Masterclass entitled "So You Want to Shoot Weddings?". A no-holds barred presentation about what you'll need, what you'll need to know and do and what other photographers don't tell you! If you love photography and are hoping to add weddings to your list of services, then book your space by clicking the advert below:-
         The Societies' Convention 2022 is a must to visit, whether you are an amateur or professional. Whether you decide to stay for a couple of days or just come for the day, plan it well and you will not be disappointed with a stunning array of education, trade show and entertainment all rolled into one. Come along and bathe in photography to your heart's content.

Norfolk Photographer - I'm an Ambassador!
I am delighted and proud to have been asked to be an Ambassador for The Societies of Professional Photographers. I have been a member of this worldwide organisation for several years and it has not only helped me progress with my photography and business but I have made life long friends in the community too. Whatever your level of photography, there is always something or someone to help you. Membership comes with exclusive discounts, a free mentoring service, forum, a free monthly image competition and the ability to gain qualifications from entry level to Fellowship. Every year there is also a fantastic Convention, held in London, which includes a print competition which is judged live, where you can watch, learn and listen to the judges, numerous classes in business and photography from all genres and an incredible Trade Show with suppliers from all over the world.Â
I have nothing but praise for The Societies and I am counting the days to the next Convention in March 2022, where I can finally meet up again with my photography friends from around the globe and share several days of photography-related chat and learning. Only 140 days to go!

Commercial Photography Norfolk - A Different Perspective
Commercial Photography Norfolk - A Different Perspective
Professional Photography for any business is essential to provide an insight into what you do and show this with good imagery. So when Larking Gowen got in touch asking for some images with a different perspective for their website, along with team photos for their branch staff, I was extremely keen to help. The different perspective came with the use of my drone for some overhead / elevated images which were fun and informative.
Using the drone I was able to create some different images and be able to see all the staff easily. After this we created a full staff picture and some individual branch staff group shots. Using the brand name and corporate colours, we brought the teams together.   Good Commercial Photography gives your website and literature a professional feel and helps your customers relate to you and your products or services. If you are looking to update your website or literature images, or even the dreaded professional headshot, please get in touch for a chat about what you need.      Read the full article
