The Blue Orchid & Friends!

I'm delighted to announce that Blue Orchid's new premises in Hoylake officially opened yesterday and will be featuring my photography on permanent display. If you'd like to see some of my work up in (very large!) print and look through a sample album then drop in and see Katey at 63 Market Street on the main high street through Hoylake.

Katey has the place beautifully decked out with examples of her bespoke floristry as well as showpieces from Bella's Cake Pantry, Elegant Twist venue dressing and Pink Sherbert Stationery. It's a cosy, warm shop with genuine, high-quality suppliers proud to be there.

Take a look!

Up In Smoke

These are photographs of smoke. The colour is added by heat-mapping colour to tones in post-processing. ​The shapes the smoke twists itself into as it reacts to the eddies in the air created by my hands is fascinating. It weighs so little that even moving towards or away from the smoke during photographing created high and low pressure that would throw the smoke all over the place. It's like putting dye into the air and watching what it does all around you invisibly all the time.

A Brand New Webspace

I'm really happy to welcome you to my new site. I'll be posting here on my blog frequently about what I'm up to and also a few tips and tricks here and there about photography.

I'd really love to hear what you think so please do leave comments and if you want to support me, share the odd link and I'll buy you a Twix if ever I see you! A Twix is a fine present as you frequently get offered one of the fingers back, a return on your investment!

​Thanks again for taking a peek. More to come :)
