Limited Edition Calendars - New for 2020

29/9/2019

0 Comments

For a number of years I have been asked if I could produce a calendar with photographs of local landmarks.  This year I can finally say yes!  

I have found a UK based printer who can print both cost effectively and with a high quality finish to the standard I want.  I canvassed friends, family and clients for feedback on their preferred monthly format and the majority decision was for 'day boxes' allowing for the maximum writing space.

Please drop me a message HERE on my contact page if you would like to buy a calendar at only £10.99 each.  It is £1.50 for first class postage (it arrives safely packaged in a hard backed envelope) or I can deliver for free to local addresses within the London Borough of Richmond.

Alternatively you can order directly from my Etsy shop HERE - Christmas cards can also be purchased from my shop.

It may be 30 degrees outside, we may have had no rain for nearly 2-months but it's time for me to think about making up this years Christmas cards for supply to shops and outlets in September/October!

Thanks to the snow in late February this year, I have been able to add another 3 designs to my current range.  The classic and locally loved red telephone boxes on Richmond Green, the Twickenham 'Naked Ladies' (complete with icicles!) and the view along the Thames tow path at Twickenham.

All will be available to purchase soon here on my website or in local shops - just drop me an email if you are interested...HERE

What a great Private View this evening at Landmark Arts Centre in Teddington! The exhibition looks one of the best we've had in recent years and it's open for the next week and a half to visitors.

I've got eleven mounted images taken in Lapland in Finland earlier this year (I'm not sure if I'm looking smug or slightly inebriated!).  I was really pleased to sell one of my images
​on the opening night as well.

New to Bentalls in Kingston...

I am pleased to announce that Bentalls department store in Kingston upon Thames are now stocking an exclusive selection of greeting cards from my local and Central London ranges.  It has taken me a couple of years to get in there but I am very pleased with the outcome.  

Bentalls display all their cards 'the correct way round' so I needed to use a different spinner to display my cards in a landscape format arranging them by location and I am happy with the visual effect.

Thank you Bentalls for supporting a local photographer - I'm looking forward to
​working together in the future.

Just gained my C.P.A.G.B.

After months of preparation and a number of image changes, today was the day when I travelled to Croydon to voluntarily put myself through a judging process of 10 of my mounted prints by a panel of 5 judges.  The process took all day and it was touch and go but at the end of the day I was awarded a 'Credit from the Photographic Alliance of Great Britain'  - a C.P.A.G.B. - I am very pleased.

The image above is my complete panel as displayed on the website of my photo club -
the Richmond and Twickenham Photographic Society.

The awards are based on achieving what is thought to be be 'good club photography' although the standard of photography varies considerably from club to club and what is ‘Good’ in one club may not be so successful in another.  This is difficult to define and so on the day it is the Adjudicators who define what “Good Club Standard” is.  Thank goodness they decided that I met the standard!
