Well as the end is in sight for my working year i have taken the time to reflect over the last 12 months.
What a Year!! When i started Photography in 2008, i never once imagined that this is where it would take me. The last year has been amazing, i have had the pleasure of working with many new customers and was even more pleased to see many faces returning. Its been so nice to see the little ones come back, a few inches taller and with their own little personalities coming through.
I have also been doing alot of Model work along side Sally Orchard, which i have to say i have really loved! All of the people i have worked with have been fantastic and its really given me the opportunity to improve myself.
Other highlights of the year ~ Working with Pirate FMs girl bands (Eden & Hush)
Some amazing talent, Shannon Stocker, has to get a mention, i did her portfolio and then roped her into my Charity night.. 1 word = AMAZING!!
Also working with the Lovely Amy Wray who has also come really far since our first shoot in January! Well done Amy!
Umm doing the Posters for sound nightclub was fun along with their launch night, Crazy night with |crazy people, yes im talking about you Jimmy Miller!!
The Charity calenders with the boys... A shoot i will NEVER EVER forget (Thank god i kept the originals hahaha)
There are just to many people who have made my year special and i thank you all! I look forward to working with you all again in 2011.
A look into the future and whats in store ....
The business itself has really taken off in 2010 despite the fact the UK has had such a tough year and there is so much competition, i plan to take this further in 2011 with some exciting times in store.
Jan - Lots of Model Shoots lined up, The winner of Pirate FMs Xmas Factors Shoot.
Feb - A two page spread in the magazine Digital SLR, And my operation
I am due to have some long awaited surgery in the early part of the year which means i will be out of Action for up to three months, I will be doing some fun shoots before i go off to keep my busy while i am layed up so i hope to still be posting some images. I know Its not the best time for me to be taking time out but i really have no option. However things will be happening behind the scenes. BIG things ;-)
In May i will be re-opening, there will be bits of info between now and then but untill things are set in stone its all top secret im afraid.
Anyway thank you once again for all of your support, Have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year, i look forward to seeing you all in 2011.
Christina
