The National Societies Awards celebrates the achievements of student societies at different universities and FE establishments, around the country. The Union, Manchester Metropolitan University hosted the fourth year award last week. Over 800 societies were nominated for the awards in 12 different categories, with Bristol University being the big winners scooping 3 awards.
We were commissioned by Manchester Metropolitan University to document the evening, capturing the students upon arrival and the awards itself. Our client also required next working day (by 9AM) turn around as the images were due to be published on different online sources the following morning. We delivered the photos at 8:45AM ahead of our deadline and our client was extremely pleased with the images.
Here are some of our favourite photos from the evening:

Tangerine HQ is based in Manchester City Centre but from time to time we do travel further up and down the UK to shoot for our clients. This time our client, AESSEAL, commissioned us to capture their 40th anniversary party at Sheffield City Hall Ballroom. AESSEAL, is a world leading producer of mechanical seals and has international offices all over the globe.
This was our first time shooting at the Sheffield City Hall Ballroom which is a Grade II listed building, and we were blown away by the art-deco ballroom and features. It was a fantastic setting for such a special occasion.
AESSEAL asked for natural and candid photos to document the evening and we did so by blending in the crowd and photographing in an un-obtrusive manner.
We delivered the photos within 24 hours to our client and they were absolutely delighted with the imagery.

The season of prom and graduation photography has started early this year for us. In the past few years we have shot proms and graduations balls for The University of Manchester, Manchester Metropolitan University, University of Salford and UCLAN to name a few.
We shot our very first spring ball earlier this month for The University of Manchester at Principal Hotel on Oxford Road.
Our client’s briefing was to capture posed images of the students upon arrival and more natural and candid photos during the evening. We handed out cards to the students with the instructions on how they can find their photos. Within 24 hours of the event, we delivered all of the hi-resolution edited images via a secure password protected gallery, in which the students could view and download any photographs free of charge.
On Sunday, shot a very special event at Manchester City’s Stadium, Etihad; Benji’s Bar Mitzvah. This is the second Bar Mitzvah in four years we have had the pleasure of shooting for this lovely family, and we are delighted to have now played a small role in both Benji and Harry’s Bar Mitzvah.
Shortly after our arrival at the venue, we headed to the pitch side to take all the important family shots before the arrival of the guests. With the light quickly disappearing and the weather turning for worse, we used our external flashguns to light the portraits and we shot all the formal photos in quick time, and headed back to the venue to capture the rest of the evening.
And it was around this time the family and friends started to arrive at the venue. Once the drinks had been served to the guests, Benji was announced and welcomed to the room. It was then that the famous Israeli dancing begun. We absolutely love shooting Israeli dancing and capturing the madness and joy of the celebration. Below we will let the photos speak for themselves.
Shortly after the dancing, the meals were served. We continued capturing candid photographs of the guests in our usual un-intrusive manner. Following on from the dinner, it was time for speeches in the following order: Benji’s Mom, Benji’s friends and finally the Bar Mitzvah Boy, Benji.
As quickly as it begun, our shooting time was over. Within 48 hours of the end of the event, we delivered the high resolution edited photos to our client and we had the amazing feedback from the family: “ They are absolutely beautiful. What a fantastic reminder of our special evening. Thank you SO much!!”

Demi & Kieron
We were delighted to be asked to photograph Demi & Kieron’s wedding last August. We looked forward to be shooting the ceremony at St. Mary’s Church in Bowdon and the reception at the stunning Mere Resort & Golf Club in Knutsford.
Our day started at The Mere Resort with the bridal preparations. We like to spend 30 minutes up to an hour with the bride to get all the important details shots as well as few bridal portraits before heading to the ceremony.
After shooting the bridal preparations, we headed to the stunning St. Mary’s Church in Bowdon. This grade II listing, opened in 1860 and it features impressively high ceiling and glass windows.
The ceremony went smoothly and Demi looked stunning as she walked down the aisle. After the ceremony, the happy couple walked out the church into the confetti thrown by their nearest and dearest family and friends.
The reception was held at the Mere Resort & Golf Club. We love shooting at The Mere as it has plenty of beautiful spots for couple portraits and formal family shots.
After taking the family formal shots and couple portraits, we headed back inside the venue for the speeches, cake cutting and of course the first dance.

Sky Cinema Bus also provide a giant snow globe, where families could have their photo taken; given as souvenir print at the end of the movie screening. Although the weather was not on our side, the public did not let the heavy downpour put them off from enjoying the family experience at the famous Cinema Bus.

Halloween in the city was back again this year in Manchester City Centre. Giant inflatable monsters could be seen on Manchester’s landmarks, such as House of Fraser, Manchester Arndale, Market Street and Manchester Hall to name a few.
The spooky festivities held entertainment for all the family, such as a treat or trick trail spread around city centre with prizes to be collected at each spot; enchanted forest and magic School at St. Anne’s Square; and a ghostly world record attempt at Exchange Square, which unfortunately fell slightly short to break the world record.
Visitors were also entertained by the Strolling Bones; the stilt walkers, unicycle performers and dancers, who were accompanied by a live band. This eerie procession walked through Arndale Shopping Centre, making their way up to market street once every hour. On Sunday, the annual Spooky Pooch Costume Show was back. We saw dogs dresses and superhero’s, skeletons and spiders as they took to the 'dogwalk' to compete for prizes.
We let the photos speak for themselves :
