Hair & Beauty shoot

Earlier this week I spent a few hours at Simply Special, on Yorkshire Street in Rochdale, producing some portfolio shots for myself, and for them.
It was good chance for them to show what they can do, and for me to experiment with different lighting set-ups.
Here is a little selection...

Rochdale Rochdale Rochdale Networking Breakfast 8th October 2012, Norton Grange Hotel

We met for breakfast this morning at the Norton Grange Hotel to share some networking time, bacon butties (and croissants), coffee/tea, and a talk by Ekum Todd, a well-respected former business bank manager. His talk was entitled “Managing your Bank Manager”. There couldn’t be a more relevant topic in these demanding times. 
Here are a few pics to show you what you missed. I would have taken one of the bacon butties, but they disappeared a little too quickly for me to get one.
Ekum gave a great little insight into what has happened to banking since the 1970's, how to prepare for, and conduct more effective meetings with your bank manager, and how to make sure you get the most out of them. Very useful!

Wedding photography at the Bella Vista, Rochdale


SPECIAL OFFER for wedding photography at the Bella Vista, Rochdale:
Book a Graphistudio storybook album package before 1st April 2013 and receive a FREE cd of all final images at full resolution, normal price £250.00.


One of the prettiest wedding venues in Rochdale played host to the wedding day of Toni and Steven recently.
The Italian flavour comes out in the staff, the surroundings, the overall feel of the place, and the coffee!
The style of the venue can give the photos an almost continental feel, if you choose your location and direction carefully.
The room is a bright, airy space, and the lounge area in the bar is a lovely place to sit, have a drink and enjoy the company, while admiring the tremendous views across the Pennine hills around Rochdale.
To finish it all off nicely, the food is always exceptional too.
Here are a few of the photos to give you a flavour of the day...


















 One of my favourite shots of the year...



 A wedding cake with real flowers on top... Fantastic!
