Description This is another print from my portfolio. Captured while working for a popular (and now bankrupt) high street studio.

Some of the bests shots came from letting the kids play, jump around and have general fun and just try to capture a natural shot.

This was another favourite of mine.

Thanks! It's always a great feeling when you capture such a great shot. It's what makes photography so enjoyable and the reason to keep going through rolls of film just for that one great shot.

Yes I just said that to some friends of mine after taking their pictures. I have no idea if any of them will look good, but you get one good shot and it's all worth it.

Well I hope all goes well and you get some great piccys.

I had one recent shoot for a John Lennon tribute theatre show. The photo's were hopefully going to be used in the shows brochure BUT it wasn't meant to be.

One roll of film hadn't exposed properly and went grainy as hell bad choice of film maybe, I don't know but the worst was the second roll of film was totally wiped by the photo developing shop, they'd done something wrong and wiped the whole roll! I was gutted

I also been so busy at Uni I should really make time to dust of my camera and go shooting again!

Well, we'll see what happened when I get the film developed. I used Fuji last time and the pics were super grainy. That's what I had on me today. So, I'm expecting some grain. Oh, well. I think the people at the photo places are developing film so rarely now they probably don't know what they're doing.

Not knowing what they were doing is right. It's a popular high street company and I've had dozens of films developed at their branch in Stockton and were perfect (Icluding thus Happy Child one). It just seemed too obvious that the people in the Middlesbrough branch hadn'r got a clue!
I guess it's just a learning experience!

I hope all goes well for you and I'll keep an eye open for your prints on here Good luck!
