Driving back from photographing Ladies Day at Royal Ascot I saw this amazing rainbow. I ‘chased’ it for about half an hour to a suitable horizon and then captured it on camera in the rain. The Sunday Telegraph and Mail online both published it. See this and other news items also on the website – www.grahamreading.com
Rebecca came and danced in and around the swimming pool and then in the forest and among the bluebells. This and other images appear on her website www.rebeccasewell.org – some on Yearly Projects 2011 Gerrards Cross and some in The Juliet series – she is awesome to work with!
Marc and Louise got married Notley Tythe Barn in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire www.notleyfarm.co.uk , and took time following the ceremony to visit an adjoining field in low sunlight for some stunning photographs. Other wedding photography appears on the website www.grahamreading.com
I was invited to photograph the Sisterhood ball and submit to OK! magazine because I am regularly commissioned by them for party photography. The magazine ran it as a half page. The event raised a lot of money for the Royal Marsden hospital. More of my work is on the website www.grahamreading.com
I first met Charlotte at a job I was photographing an event for OK! magazine a few years ago. This year she brought daughter Monroe to the studio for a valentine themed shoot, and the Ealing Gazette picked up the story. [I would preferred it if they hadn’t accidentally whitened her hair!] Other news and images on the website www.grahamreading.com.

My
My friend Giovanni invited me to Pierre Garroudi’s amazing London Fashion Week show at Crucifix Street at his studio under the rail arches.
I needed a miracle as I arrived at 8.50pm for a 9pm start and my view was restricted of the runway. I threw up a quick prayer and the photographer in front of me suddenly re-positioned his tripod allowing me to sit centre front, my favourite position. That’s not the first time my prayers have been answered!
From there I had a fantastic view and enjoyed an array of fabulous models making intriguing movements and shapes as they ‘catwalked’. A thoroughly entertaining show!
I sent a large selection of photos to the National Newspapers and an agency to send to the magazines.

Amy looks great on the top of the blog!
I first photographed Ilda a few years ago at Royal Ascot. I could see how well dressed she was and her photograph was used in Berkshire Life magazine who I was freelancing for. Over the years, and many photos later, we have become friends. Ilda came to the studio for a valentine themed photoshoot. We didn’t need a model as she was the ideal mannequin [stunning!] for the amazing heart shape hat she created for the shoot. Last year her hats featured heavily in the national press at Royal Ascot [Times front page]. If I were a lady I would be rummaging on her shelves. Contact her if you need a ‘titfa’. www.ildadivico.com
