 Business Portrait Photography: Heather

We were recently commissioned to produce a set of portrait images of Heather Carter, founder of the 1st National Sales Academy. I spent some time to get to know Heather so I could really represent Heather in the portrait photography. I decided to photograph Heather in her workplace, as well as a few outdoor shots to compliment the selection.

Heather is currently using the portrait photos on her social media profiles. The images were also used in a short promotional video as stills overlaying audio. Heather is a thoroughly engaging character and I had great fun meeting and photographing her!

On Saturday 3rd November the new Chairman of the FA, Greg Dyke, visited Nantwich Town’s Weaver Stadium. Greg was accompanied by Cheshire FA Chief Executive Simon Gerrard and met Nantwich Town club officials and was given a tour of the facilities at The Weaver Stadium as well as meeting the new Nantwich Town ladies team and the youth teams for the Dabbers.

Greg was given the tour by Nantwich Town Chairman Jon Gold and Football Development Officer Steve Smithies. Greg took time to chat to all the players and club officials. Nantwich Town Chairman Jon Gold said, “The FA Chairman Greg Dyke is focussed on developing initiatives and making positive changes at every level of football that will benefit and grow the English game over the coming years.  We are proud that he has highlighted Nantwich Town as a community club from which he can both draw inspiration for his future plans for football at this level and now having witnessed things first hand, he can hopefully include us in any future developments and initiatives that may be introduced in coming years.”

Greg also took time to pose for a portrait photograph!

Here are some photos from the visit:

 Wedding Photography: Crown Hotel Nantwich – Kathryn & Simon

We were back in Nantwich recently for another wedding at the historic Crown Hotel Assembly Room for the wedding of Kathryn and Simon. It was an intimate wedding in the wonderful surroundings of the historic Nantwich Hotel. After the wedding ceremony the guests mingled upstairs before the main reception in the evening in the ceremony room. The historic building is over 400 years old and maintains a good deal of its original features (including the wonderful wonky staircase!) and makes for a great location for wedding ceremonies.

Press Photography: Nantwich Town Squad Photo

Clients: Nantwich Town FC, The Non League Paper
Photographer: Simon J. Newbury

I was asked to be the official photographer to Nantwich Town FC at the start of the 2011-12 season by Chairman Jon Gold. It has been a great addition to my press photography! It’s been a great ride with The Dabbers – the historic FA Cup run which took the club to MK Dons. The same season Nantwich Town lifted the Cheshire Senior Cup.

Last season was somewhat disappointing by the same standards and a change was made at the top. Danny Johnson is now in the Dabbers hotseat. This season kicked off brightly with a 2-0 victory over Kings Lynn Town. It gives me great pleasure to announce that I’ll be with the Cheshire club again this season in the capacity of official photographer!

We got the season off to a good start with the squad photo before the Kings Lynn fixture. The team recorded a good win and I am pleased to say that several photos from the match were published the nationwide Non League Paper.

Up The Dabbers!

Commercial Photography: New Nantwich Town FC Kit

Client: Nantwich Town Football Club, County Insurance
Photographer: Simon J. Newbury

The new football season is nearly here and there is a lot of anticipation at The Weaver Stadium ahead of Nantwich Town’s first season under new manager Danny Johnson. There has been a lot of transfer activity at the club with a lot of new arrivals.

The club has a new look home and away kit this term with the sponsors, County Insurance from Crewe, signing up for another season of sponsoring both kits. The new logo is much bolder than last year and should show up very well in the match action shots!

Nantwich Town Chairman Jon Gold has decided to make some large advertising boards with the new kit photographs. The photos will be displayed at life size at the club’s Weaver Stadium!
