Paige's Batmitzvah

Still recovering from the madness that was Paige's Batmitzvah last night at Vanilla. This was the third simcha I've photographed for the Reuben family so it really seemed less like work and more like a gathering of old friends!. The highlight for me was Paige's mum, dad and sister singing a rendition of "Master of the house" from Les Miserables as part of the welcome speech...loved it. and I definitely believe now that no one parties harder than the JFS crew ;)

The 2017 Investec Derby

So a little while ago I received a call asking me if I'd be interested in shooting the Derby in Epsom. The only snag was that I had to wear a full morning suit (Top Hat and Tails) as I would be working mainly around the Royal enclosure. I've not covered anything like this before and I have to say it was hard work, but a great day was had. Lots of colourful characters all enjoying the gallons of bubbly on tap and the weather was incredibly warm and sunny, not great if you're dressed up like the Fat Controller of Thomas the Tank Engine fame...
