During the planning of the Nottinghamshire site we needed to find a local photographer to take some shots for the ‘about us’ page, I contacted Scene Photography, we met up and luckily for us they agreed to help us out.
Scene Photography are Rob Smalley and Chris Burks who have worked together for many years and have a successful, established studio in the centre of Nottingham.
The Walk Cafe had allowed us to use them for our location and on the day of the shoot both Deb and I were quite nervous, Rob and Chris were brilliant at making us feel comfortable and at ease. The Walk provided us with tea, coffee and cakes for props and we spent the morning posing, chatting, drinking and trying to look ‘natural’ !
At the end of the morning Rob and Chris were happy with the shots they had taken, we had a sneak preview before they went on to their next appointment.
When the disc landed on my doormat with the shots on I was thrilled, they had done an amzing job and the pictures are exactly what we had in mind, Rob and Chris had really listened to what we were hoping to acheive. For their help that day both Deb and I are so very grateful.
So this week, it was fabulous to hear they had won TWO Nottingham Creative Business Awards, ‘Photographic Creative Business of the Year’ and ‘Creative Business of the Year’, the work that won them these prestigious awards is entitled ‘Night’. The project features a series of images taken around Nottingham in the early hours between 11pm and 5am, they are truly amazing don’t you think.
Deb and I want to congratulate Rob and Chris and thank them again for their help with the fabulousplaces Nottinghamshire site.
