Awarded SE Region Under 5s Photographer of the Year '09

Young Kyreece, whom I spotted passing the studio with his parents and just had to photograph him in our South Croydon photography studioI am absolutely delighted to be awarded the prestigious title of South East Region under 5s Photographer of the Year.

On Monday evening, the well respected Fellow photographer, Dennis Hylander, judged the print competition for the Master Photographers Association South East Region over at Rowfant House.

After having a couple of procedures of my leg on Monday morning, I made my way over to Rowfant House to delivery my competition prints.  Unfortunately, I was unable to stay for the critique and judging, which has been reported to have been excellent, as Dennis critiques just about every image entered.

Late on Monday night, I received a PM from my lovely Lisa, who happens to be the UK Photographer for the Year, congratulating me on my win - which she had already pre-empted when she saw the images earlier in the day.

I'm honoured to have been awarded this title and would like to share the image that enabled me to receive it - meet Kyreece again...

Exactly how delicious is he? Thank you again Andrina for bringing him in, he was a delight to photograph.

NEW Client awards

...we've chosen to reward selected clients with awards.  What does this mean? Well, for those clients whose images we feel deserve an award, your image will be featured here and you'll receive an award from us.  What will your award be?  It will probably differ with each image, from a "thank you" for inspiring us to cinema tickets, to whatever!

excited...

Although I had planned on being in the studio for the morning, enabling one of my lovely clients to collect her gorgeous image book and to complete some admin, we ended up being there all day getting orders complete and reviewing new products.

Whilst working through orders, I took a very interesting call from a lovely American lady, enquiring about a photo session for her four month old daughter. Maybe 15 minutes or so later, there was something to smile about - I had a very exciting photo session booked in the diary. Can't wait to meet my latest little Cherub, Scarlett and her friend Violet and capture some jaw dropping images. This session is set to be very special. Thanks for choosing us Kassandra!

Then, as if it couldn't get much better, Andrina called in with her adorable little boy, who looks simply perfect for the Kodak Wedding and Portrait Awards 2009. I'm on the look out for props now, as this little boy ROCKS!

Happy days.

first casting call - newborns...

Today myself, Mike and the children trawled the shops for accessories to bring our ideas and concepts to life for our newborn baby photography.

Why a casting call?

Simple, I want to capture images that have us - you and me - be inspired... award-winning images!

This is an exciting time for us; with the Kodak Portrait Awards, British Professional Photography Awards and WPPI Awards coming round again, we're placing our first Casting Call for newborn babies to be photographed in the studio by me (Denise).

What's involved?

An inspired photography session of your precious newborn baby at our South Croydon studio, where we will focus on capturing one image with that 'je ne sais quoi' that makes it stand out from the rest. The session will last anywhere from 15 minutes to 2 hours, depending on how happy baby is to 'model' for me.

To participate, your baby needs to be between 1 day and 3-4 weeks old and you will need to sign a model release, to enable us to use the images to promote ourselves and enter into competitions, there is no obligation to purchase at all - we're simply out to capture, create and generate amazing images.

If you're pregnant and in your last trimester, now is a great time to get in touch and if you know someone who fits this description, send them this information!

How much does it cost?

You? Nothing. We're waiving our studio session fee, therefore, there is nothing for you to pay.

Us? Studio time, processing time and production time, however, we're considering it an investment.

What about if you choose to purchase any of the images? That's up to you and we will be happy to discuss our portrait presentations and pricing with you, as there are options for everyone from wall art to gift prints.

Are you guaranteed a photo session?

As a working photography studio [business], we need to balance our portrait commissions [paid] versus innovative vision investment [unpaid], therefore, we only have a limited number of sessions available as part of our Casting Call.

What next?

In the first instant, we're asking that you complete our contact form expressing your interest and any questions and/or comments you may have.  I will contact you to discuss and arrange a studio session if required.

If I've missed anything, please comment and let me know, as I'm happy to update this entry.

Thanks for taking the time to read through - even if you were skimming. Like I said, I'm mega excited about this and I can't wait to hear from you.
