The Kenilworth Hotel & Ru Bar, Jesmond, Newcastle

/0 Comments/in /by

The Keniworth Hotel and Ru Bar were hit by the dreadful  North East floods last year and so have recently had a refurbishment. New images of the interiors were required to drum up business through their internet promotion.

Its a quirky and interesting victorian building with super friendly staff and cosy feel. It was a joy to meet the family who run it and was a lovely relaxed job. There were bags of shots from the day I spent there but there are a few which I felt reflected it’s character best. For anyone wanting to find out more or book, go to the Late Rooms website on http://www.laterooms.com/en/hotel-reservations/149576_kenilworth-hotel-newcastle-upon-tyne.aspx

Take Me Out! Thames TV comes to the studio

/0 Comments/in /by

Well this was particularly exciting having a film crew in my studio! ‘Take me Out’ came to here to film Chris a model from Newcastle, one of those brave (and maybe slightly insane) men who put themselves up for a pop at the ladies, a bit of Paddy loving and a potential trip to ‘Fernandos’… (hmmm me thinks it might have another name…)

So here is where I come in.. I was the photographer who was simulating the model shoot with Chris. It was a huge laugh and actually I shot for real whilst being filmed and captured some pretty nice shots, so below are a few behind the scenes and the portfolio I captured for Chris on set.

The programme screened before Christmas and yes I was on that massive screen as the ladies contemplated…  “no likey, no lighty……” but blink and once again, you’d miss me!

More! Magazine’s Christmas in Newcastle

/0 Comments/in /by

In the freezing cold last week Sam Sparks, my new assistant (cool name eh?) and I went in search of festive photography in Newcastle city centre. The brief from More! magazine was to find, ladies shopping between 18 & 25 and general shots of the Christmas markets & lights and picturesque areas of the town centre.

Despite the hurdles of ugly regeneration scaffolding at every turn and frozen fingers, so numb I found it difficult to control the camera, we captured some lovely sparkly Christmassy images. The issue is out this week and features a mix of my images with readers one too, including a truly hideous one my daughter Daisy supplied of us looking crazy with a snowman- thanks Daisy. Its clearly not always fab having a daughter working in publishing.

You can see how coordinating the clouds of your clothing can have a huge impact! You can be super smart and come to your session wearing colours or textures that match the room where you would like to put your photos on the wall.

Props together with a theme work really well at a photo shoot as they freeze in time a big part of family routines. Bath and bed for Maiya meant rubber ducks, fluffy slippers, PJ’s and a crushing cuddle for teddy!

More! Magazine’s Street Style in Newcastle upon Tyne

/0 Comments/in /by

I recently shot for the weekly publication More! Magazine, scanning the streets of central Newcastle looking for girls rocking a laid back summer style. Working with More! Fashion Intern Daisy, we approached many lovely ladies and captured their street style in the blazing hot  sunshine! Some were photographed having just rolled out of bed in their town centre homes to pop to the shops with no make up and a ‘thrown on’ outfit. So watch out you stylish ladies of Newcastle, we might be approaching you very soon!
