Looking forward to 2010!

Just catching up after my week away in London at the SWPP photographic convention which was held at the  Hammersmith Novetel,  where I was presenting my wedding seminars over two days.  Starting at 8.30am was a bit of a shock to system but I have had really good positive feedback from delegates who attended the seminars.  It was great to catch up with all my photographer friends and have a laugh and of course a bit of a refreshment and also getting up to some hilarious and crazy moments after the seriousness of the day.

In the course of the year I managed to achieve 45 gold awards from my entries into the SWPP monthly awards and I also got one wedding image onto the wall for the 20×16 competition which you can see below

Looking forward now to 2010……………….  BRING IT ON
