had fun doing this one – i’ve been trying to convince him to let me photograph him for forever ! so a big thank you to annabel, sarah & jo for suggesting it & to his better half for finally twisting his arm 
– i owe you !
i love the results – and i’m hoping to convince him to do another session sometime soon ! thanks rik 
i just couldn’t resist spending half an hour or so in this glorious poppy field yesterday – and yes believe it or not this is on the school run ! … how lucky am i ?

they caught the morning sun and the whole hilltop just glowed scarlet, by evening they were gone … something to look forward to for next year … anyone need poppy portraits ? guaranteed redness
on thursday i went to london to collect my runner up prize in the Annabel Williams photographic awards. the champagne presentation was at the Getty Image Gallery just off Oxford Circus – what a place – amazing images on the walls and mine there as well amongst all the other award winners !
it was brilliant to see Annabel, Catherine, Jane & Jo again, and finally meet AJ, especially at such a special place !
i met some great people – Jo & Si Broadhead (Shoot Lifestyle Wedding Photography) who won the wedding album category with an absolutely stunning album – they were fantastic and agreed to meet with me beforehand so that i didn’t have to go in alone ! many many thanks !!!
i also met up with Sarah Wright (Sarah Wright Photography) – winning portrait album – a brilliant photographer from sussex, and John Archibald (Taking Time) who came runner up in children’s portrait category with an image i would love to have on my wall !
after the ceremony off to enjoy a little pimms or two and a laugh !
A very talented photographer from Cyprus Sofie Louca was the deserving winner of the Canon 5D mkII – she came runner up in the wedding album category and won the teenager category with her unique HDR images.
a brilliant day – made very special by the lovely people present !

wow! These are fantastic! Great model and GREAT photographer! Stunning. Bring him on the next course and share him with all the other photographers – stop hogging him to yourself!

He’s a prettier Ewan McGregor! Cool shots.
Gorgeous!
I knew he would take a fab pic – well done for getting him to agree. Brothers should do as they are told anyway
