My last visit of Friday night for Totally magazine was to The Waterside Bar in Stratford-Upon-Avon. The Waterside is a newly refurbished bar and part of the Waterside Theatre, a shakespearience independant theatre. Both the theatre and bar are very modern and trendy and proving very popular to all.
On Friday 6th June I visited The Old Thatch Tavern in Stratford-Upon-Avon to do an editorial shoot for Totally magazine. At over 500 years old this pub must have some stories to tell. The pub is small and has a great atmosphere. Worth a visit to rest your feet after a day wandering around Stratford.
Sunday 1st June 2008 saw me at the Rose Garden Summer Party at The New Hall Hotel in Sutton Coldfield for Totally magazine. The Summer Party was in aid of the Norman Laud Association and was well attended even with the threat of rain. In the end the weather was kind to us and everyone had a great time. Even Elvis attended.
Also on Saturday 31st May 2008 I visited Koko’s bar and nightclub taking photographs for a Totally magazine article for the venue. Even at the relatively early time of 9:00pm, the place was already starting to get busy. With the venue taking up 3 floors plus a terrace, its a great place for a drink, meal or just to chill out with lots of interesting people and lots of loud music.
I was told that Danny Dyer of the film ‘Football Factory’ was in the venue the night before filming one of the doormen for a documentary. I shall keep an eye out for that on TV.
Saturday 31st May 2008 saw me at the Leamington Bar & Grill in Leamingston Spa, Warwickshire photographing the venue and guests for a Totally magazine article. The Bar & Grill is spacious and modern and a great place for a meal and drink.
My latest model shoot was with Rebecca in the grounds of Jephson Gardens in Leamington Spa. The weather remained dry if a little cold but we got some fantastic photographs. Check out the full gallery here.
I attended the annual Focus On Imaging photographic show at the NEC this week and had a great time spending money on new kit and speaking to very knowledgeable people, including the great Keith Trainor and the superb Damien Lovegrove from Lovegrove Consulting. Looking forward to next years event already.
