Deal Carnival Party on the Prom

The annual Deal carnival party on the prom took place last night with the fantastic Dealers making a welcome return to home turf.


After their usual excellent performance in front of an appreciative crowd they were followed on stage by Clacket Lane. The event was attended by the local carnival courts, the Miss European contestants and the Royal Artillery parachute display team dropped in too.

Stunning wedding venue

We had a stunning wedding yesterday working with Alan White at Notley Abbey near Oxford. Wonderful venue with so many opportunities for shots with Clare and Ben. Photos will follow later once I've started editing them but I highly recommend Notley Abbey as a wedding venue.

Battle of the Bands

This weekend is going to be music filled with Battles of the Bands that we are photographing on both Saturday & Sunday.

On Saturday we will be at North Foreland pub in Chatham and Sunday's event is in Rochester Castle gardens. I'll load some images early next week. This is a shot from the Aynsley Lister band concert that we photographed at the Half Moon in Putney recently.

Radio star in the making?

Radio Kent were running a news story about scam model agencies this morning. I was interviewed live on the John Warnett show to discuss how some of these agencies operate. You can listen to the interview on BBC i-player but I will also be interviewed for the Drive show later today.

The key points are that a genuine model agency will not require payment upfront and will not require you to spend a fortune on photos. Many organisations that may appear to be agencies are actually just different names for photo studios and offer free photo shoots to entice potential models into the studio. They are then subject to flattery and hard sell to encourage them to pay many hundreds of pounds, in some cases over £1000, for photos that they do not need.

First Blog - Whoo hoo

Welcome to the first blog for Photo3. I'll try to update as and when there is something of interest photographically or in the general news to comment on.

The most recent news is that Catherine Thomas who we photographed as part of the Miss Euroregion competition 2006 in Ypres Belgium was runner up in Britains Next Top Model. Although Catherine didn't win the final it was a fantastic achievement to be in the final 2 and we predict a rosy future for her.
