70's Birthday Party

We were at James and Loretta's 70's party on Friday night where we did one of our photobooth shoots. Here's a little video of all the stills we took.

Barnaby Festival Launch Night

It was a fantastic evening of live music at Fresh in Macclesfield on Friday. Here are a few shots from the event.
Not the greatest lighting on offer but still managed to get some decent results (I think so anyway).

MBBC Fight Night

Macclesfield Boys Boxing Club had an evening of amateur boxing at Wilmslow leisure centre on 5th Feb and we were there to do some photography for them.

It was a hectic evening with 14 bouts scheduled and we decided to really put ourselves under pressure by having a 'studio' set up in the corridor to photograph each boxer before and after the fight as well as taking shots ringside.

Here are a few of the results....

Here are the details of the launch evening at Fresh:

Trialatv Product Photography

We were contacted early in the year to photograph a new product called 'Trialatv'. It's a cardboard flatscreen television that expands to various sizes to help customers decide what size will look best in their home. We did a some location shots of the product in various scenarios and then a few studio product shots. Look out for it in the shops.

Help For Heroes Run

Two brothers, Pete and Paul Morrison set off from Disley train station at 5.30am on the 21st December 2009 to run 31 miles of the Gritstone trail in aid of Help for Heroes. I met them at 8.30am at Teggs Nose and then later cycled alongside them down the canal from the Fools Nook photographing them along the way. They were joined by some serving Royal Marines at the Fools Nook for the last leg of the journey. Once they reached Buxton Road, just in case what they had achieved wasn't impressive enough, the last mile they did a stretcher run, carrying a 'patient' all the way up to the town hall in the centre of Macclesfield. I have huge respect for the guys who ran at a tremendous pace and raised a massive amount of money for a very worthy cause. Here are a few shots from their very long snowy run.

Town Centre Displays

We've recently done a project for the Cheshire East Council to promote Macclesfield and brighten up the town centre. The series of portraits are popping up in windows of unoccupied premises all around the town. We hope their smiling faces cheer up your shopping trip in Macclesfield.

Family Fun Day

We were at Fina Bar and Grill on Sunday taking photographs of children and families enjoying themselves at the family fun day in aid of Medequip4kids. Along with a delicious Italian buffet Santa was there with a gift for all the children, we also had a visit from Macclesfield F.C mascot - Roary the Lion.

Here are a couple of the pictures we took with a fun, fresh and Christmassy look!

Foggy Nights

Whenever it's foggy I feel inspired to get my camera out and go in search of something interesting to photograph but never usually do it. It was foggy on our day off last week so there was no excuse. I went out into the cold with a camera and tripod and came back with some pretty good shots, well, I think so anyway. Here are a few of them for you to judge for yourselves.
