Big boys train set

We don't know much about trains but like most people, there is a certain fascination with the old steam trains that were once a familiar sight on Britain's railways.

Therefore when we heard about the Llangollen Railway Autumn Steam Gala, we just had to pop over yesterday (Friday 11th September 2009) and travel on some of these wonderful locomotives.

With the weather being so kind, we had a terrific day topped off with eating rather too much at our favourite restaurant, The Corn Mills.

Here are a couple of photographs from yesterday

Later this week

As noted previously, on Monday we had the enormous pleasure of photographing top British designer Nick Munro at the factory in Preston making furniture for John Lewis.

Today (Wednesday) sees us finishing off the editing of the photographs from Gemma and Adam's wedding in Prestbury last Saturday (22nd August 2009) whilst tomorrow (Thursday, 27th August 2009) sees us travelling to Horwich in Lancashire to photograph a well known artist for a national magazine. Looking forward to that.

Hopefully, we'll have some time tomorrow to do some travelling around part of Lancashire and make some photographs we can use for our stock photo library (we have a library of many thousands of images on all manner of subjects sold directly by us via our website or through a number of photo agencies and libraries).

We have another wedding on Sunday this week which means we get to have a lie in for a change on Saturday! On Sunday, Rebecca and Dave are getting married at St Paul's Church in Childer Thornton with their wedding reception at the magnificent Inglewood Manor on the Wirral (more details on our wedding blog).
