Take a look at some of our recent work.
This weekend we were off to Bolton to cover the birthday party of little Mia. There were party games, candy floss and One Direction on loop, what more could a 6 year old want. The kids had a great time and here's just a few of the very early edits from the day.
It's not just private parties, proms and black tie events we cover ... from time to time we also get asked to cover a variety of corporate events. The latest one was the relaunch of the Dunelm Store in Blackpool following a multi million pound refit.
We were tasked with capturing both the layout of the store and the multitude of departments, but the company also wanted some natural shots to document a 'day in the life' of the store; customers, interaction etc. We obviously also captured the official ribbon cutting ceremony and staff shots etc. It was a real pleasure to cover this event for such a well known high street brand and the management team and every single staff member at the store was a pleasure to deal with.
Here's a few shots from the day.
On Sunday, we we're at the beautiful Victoria Hotel in Oldham to cover a Silver Wedding Anniversary for a lovely couple. Their closest family and friends joined them to celebrate 25 years of married life; some feat in this day and age! The family opted for our Silver Party Photography package, providing them with three hours coverage and all edited images on DVD.
Here's a few of my favourite images from what was a superb day.
We've shot a number of Christenings of late and we bloody love 'em! Here's the Christening of the little cutie Jack! The Christening was at the Alkrington & Providence Church in Middleton, then we headed down the road to The Middleton Archer to capture some party shots for the family.
If you've got a christening coming up, have a look at our party & celebration packages and see what we can offer you.
Anyway, here's a few of our favourite shots from the main man Jack's Christening. Enjoy people!
Last Sunday we covered a couple of christenings. The first one is the christening of the ridiculously cheeky and cute brothers, Joseph and Matthew. The boys behaved like an absolute dream throughout.
If your child's christening is coming up, take a look at our party and celebration packages; with two hours coverage at just £99.00, including all high res images, there's really no reason not to have professional photography coverage of your child's christening.
Here's a few of my favourite shots from their lovely christening.
On Friday we were down at the Mercure Hotel in Manchester to cover the Chemical Engineering Society Ball for Manchester University. We provided the university with our 'all-inclusive' package, allowing all guests to download their images from our client galleries in full high-res. Upon arrival we captured guests against our mobile studio setup. We then roved round the room capturing some candid shots of the guests. Here's some of those images. Enjoy people.
On Sunday gone, I headed off to Manchester to cover a 1st birthday party and what a belter of a party it was. The kids looked like they were having a lovely time; there was a bouncy castle, pass the parcel, smash the life out of a paper mache donkey (I don't think that's the actual name of it) mickey and minnie mouse and more importantly, loads of sweets. I had a good few sweets myself; not because I'm greedy, purely for energy, these kids can move fast and I had to be able to keep up with them !
Here's some of the early edits from the event. Hope you enjoy them.
Saturday night saw us venture to Liverpool to cover a 40th Wedding Anniversary for a lovely family who we’ve covered multiple events for in the past. 40 years, some time that isn’t it?! As my Dad would say, “you’d get less for murder.” Thankfully, there were no murders, just a couple who’s love was still quite clearly in abundance and evident for all to see.
Here’s a few of the very early edits from this event. Enjoy my blog reading friends.
On Friday night, we were at the delightful Briars Hall Hotel in Ormskirk to cover the PTA Ball to raise money for the local school. Not only did we attend for free, but we also donated £60.00 to the school, adding to their funds to raise money for extra IT equipment. Don't tell us, there's no such thing as a free lunch!
If you've got a black tie event coming up this Spring/Summer, check out out black tie event photography packages. What's not to like? Free attendance and a donation to your charity... no brainer!
On Saturday I was down at the Hallmark Hotel in Cheshire to cover Hilary's 40th. A belter of a night seemed to be had by all the guests and the first time I've ever seen a dance-floor absolutely packed to capacity ... probably something to do with the free cocktails!
Here's a few shots from this great event. Enjoy.
A few months ago, I got an enquiry to cover a joint 30th birthday party for a couple who were both turning thirty. However, there was a curve ball. During this '30th Party', the couple were in fact getting married at the party, which only them, their best friends and me knew about! So, the hundred and odd guests who turned up at half seven had no idea they were in fact going to a wedding!
They wanted the wedding to just be 'part of the party'. I thought this was an absolute belter of an idea, as being a man right in the throws of planning my own wedding (or, if truth be told, watching my better half plan it), the stresses and strains of it all can sometimes be too much, or so I'm told. So, all hail the newly wed Lauren and Mike, a lovely couple and the world's best covert wedding planners. It was an absolute pleasure to cover your party/wedding and I wish you all the best in your future together.
This afternoon we were at Manzil in Manchester to cover a children's birthday party. The kids seemed to have a fantastic afternoon and here's a few of my favourite shots from the day. Enjoy.
On Saturday we were also in Manchester to cover a 40th party. Just 24 hours after the event, we've received this lovely feedback from Gordon who booked us. We really do try and go over and above to ensure the images we capture and present to you tick every box you wanted ticking, then some. Thanks for taking the time to leave such wonderful feedback Gordon, it really is appreciated.
Last night we were off down the M6 to The Function Room in St Helens to cover Andy & Steph's leaving Party. In just over a week they're emigrating to Dallas to chase their dreams, good on 'em that's what I say. Anyway, it was a belter of a night and here's a few of the early edits to prove it! Enjoy blog readers.
This week we covered NCP's annual conference at the Imperial Hotel in Blackpool. The conference started at 8am and ran till 5pm - during this time we provided reportage coverage of the main room and break out groups. Following a quick freshen up, the guests came back down, had their evening meals and then it was party time!
Here's a few of the early edits from the event.
Event Photography at the Greater Manchester Fire & Rescue Awards
On Thursday night we were in the privileged position of being asked to cover the long service awards for Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service at the Sheridan Suite in Manchester.
37 brave individuals gained this coveted award for serving an incredible 25 years in the Fire Service. Our job on the night was to provide each winner with a set of images and prints for them to always remember this momentous milestone in their lives.
Here's a selected few of the images from the night, enjoy.
MJS Images available for download!
For all the students who attended the MJS Ball on Sunday, your images are now available for download. Due to the sheer number of images, I've had to create two galleries. Part 1 is here and here's Part 2. If you are unsure of the password to access your galleries, please speak to Aviva on the committee. Enjoy folks!
Event Photography at the Place Aparthotel, Manchester
Sunday gone we were at the incredible Place Aparthotel in Ducie Street in the heart of Manchester to cover the annual MJS Student's Ball. The MJS students opted for our pre-paid digital download package, which enables all of the students to download their images securely from our site for free! We provided them with shots upon entry against our mobile studio backdrop set-up and then provided some candid coverage of the night.
Here's a few of the images from the night. Hope you enjoy them.
Last weekend we covered the AEA Conference at the Hilton Hotel in Blackpool and we've just received the following review from the event organisers. Always great to get amazing feedback on the service and imagery we provide. Thanks Lucy, this really made me smile and reaffirms the high levels of service and professionalism we bring to every single event we cover.
Party Photography in Lancashire, Manchester and Cheshire
Last night we were at Bowden Rugby Club in Altrincham for Ann's 40th Birthday Party. A great night was had by all the guests as they danced well into the night. A big happy birthday to Ann, it was a pleasure to cover your event. Here's a sneak peak of some of last night's images.
