Happy Birthday Mrs Gerrard
Whenever we have a day off we try to make the most of it and take a trip out with the family, so Evelyne’s birthday was no exception. The weather wasn’t great so we opted for the National Sea Life Centre in Birmingham where we introduced Elliott to a few creatures he hadn’t met before.
One of Elliott’s favourite parts was the Hall Of Mirrors..
But he loved the weird and wonderful new creatures he met just as much..
The Sea Life Centre is somewhere I’ve wanted to visit for years and I wasn’t disappointed. It was fun to watch Elliott as he witnessed so many creatures for the first time. He may appreciate it more when he’s a bit older but we still had a great day out…
Happy Birthday Evelyne. I love you…
Lady Clarke’s 80th Birthday Party
A couple of weeks ago I was asked to photograph an 80th birthday party. Now normally an 80th birthday party might be quite a dull affair but this my friends was not dull in the slightest…
Lady Clarke knows how to entertain her guests better than most. At the beginning of the party she welcomed everybody and said everyone was thinking about her late husband. “Every day he would come home from work”, she said “I’d ask him how his day was and he’d reply that it was a complete circus. So this party is dedicated to him”. And that was exactly what her guests were treated to… A circus!
It’s not often the local vicar says grace with a painted red nose…
And, as if that weren’t enough, the ringmaster at the circus was none other than Paul Daniels!

This was the entrance to the party.






And no circus is complete without an elephant!

And no party is complete without kids, dancing and, of course, cake!



I doubt my 80th birthday will be quite so impressive. Thanks for having me there to cover the party for you Lady Clarke. Best 80th birthday party I’ve ever been to
