The weather wasn't great for the get to know you shoot with Kerry & James, but we still had great fun. We had the shoot at Hardwick Hall, Derbyshire. little did we know the grounds would be closed for laying of new paths so we did what we could where we could. Kerrys wedding is on the 1st of May @ a church yet to be decided........ vicar issues im afraid, I for one am shocked by the arrogance and rudeness of some of the church of England vicars ,at the end of the day they are being paid a lot of money for very little of there time, i will stop there as the Rant could go on a while...

Great set Karl, love the portrait of Kerry against the door, simple but very dramatic too.

Wow is the only word i need to say to describe the shoot i did with Asche and John a few days ago. We met  up in Nottingham city centre and decided the lace market would be the best place to do the shoot, i hope you agree they were great, and i cant wait to shoot their wedding in June.

Wow... you've got a real fashion thing going there. Great work! I love the "wanda" graffiti, too... you're an inspiration, Karl.

As promised here are a few of the fav's from the E-shoot we did with Rich and Lisa at Elvaston castle in Derbyshire, we had a great time, and I cant wait for their wedding at the end of April, its going to be a blast all the way as these two are a great fun couple. Im sure they wont mind me saying that they missed the email that said smart casual and not just casual but I dont mind the mighty bouch t-shirt. The only problem we had was avoiding the crowds as the place was packed as it was the best weekend this year so far so, everyone came out to play and I hope no-one noticed the Graffiti on the wall ha ha..

They're really nice, Kudos Karlos, but how do you get my hair to look so grey?

Looking forward to seeing the rest of them
