Today’s addition to my kit is the Canon 50mm f/1.4 lens.
It’s reasonably inexpensive at just over the £300 mark, but excellent quality and a has a very wide f/1.4 aperture – great for low light conditions and dreamy portraiture.

Pin-up shoot
Last month, myself and a group of fellow strobists got together with some models and make up artists to do a 1940s/50s style pin-up shoot. The day started well, but got even better when some members of the Bristol Street Rods turned up with their fantastic cars.
A very long but rewarding day.
Anne-Marie and Robert
This bright autumn day saw the wedding of Anne-Marie and Robert at the beautiful 18th century parish church at Redland, Bristol.
This was a wonderful day from start to end and the reception venue was just amazing.
All credit for this last shot goes to my good friend Albert Palmer, as I completely stole the idea from one of his weddings 🙂

Roy & Deeya
Last weekend I was down in Glastonbury, shooting the handfasting of Roy and Deeya – a lovely couple from Mauritius. Although it was my first time photographing a handfasting, I’d been to one before so the format wasn’t completely new to me.
The locations for both the ceremony and reception were beautiful. The reception venue itself backed onto the remains of Glastonbury Abbey, to which we were fortunate to be allowed access for some evening photos.
