Your images – beautifully presented

October 31, 2011

This is a 24″ square framed wall piece set in a simple, elegant mahogany frame. I love putting this type of wall art together, I just love to play with different sizes and shapes. Each piece is individually designed right in front of the client using a state of the art viewing and software system. I can change the image size and shape, frame style, even the bevel cut mounts can be added right in front of your eyes. If this doesn’t quite work, I can swap images round at the click of a button – and I’m happy to do this as many times as needed until you are completely happy with the end result. Then to really show how the whole thing will actually look on your wall, I can add an image of your room, and superimpose this framed image to exact scale.

This has to be the best way to see how your photos will really look when they are enlarged and framed.

This is the reason I won’t just drop all your photo thumbnails into an online gallery and let you fend for yourself. Imagine trying to figure this one out yourselves……

Jackie & Mike

October 10, 2011

Mike has to be one of the luckiest guys I have ever met. To fall through a roof and break your neck at work would seem like the end of a decent, able bodied life to most. But someone was smiling down on him that day, with a fractured vertebra in his neck, pure luck would have it, there was no noticeable damage to his spinal chord – a close call indeed. Although only recently out of hospital, he seems to be making a full recovery.

Jackie got in touch earlier in the year with a view to having some portraits taken, but then their whole life was turned upside down with Mike’s fall. So it was a pleasure to finally meet and shoot their photos. We headed into Birmingham’s Brindley Place for the shoot, it was a perfect day, a little too perfect in fact. I’m not a fan of strong sunlight, but, using the light to my advantage has really helped lift some of these images. Thanks for getting back in touch so quickly, a story like this makes you realise just how precious life is.
