Classic Cuban Cars photography exhibition coming soon

Following on my very successful “Faces of Cuba” exhibition, Elvis, the car-mad landlord of the Geldart (where the exhibition took place) insisted on having a classic Cuban cars photography exhibition so as to round up the Cuban theme once and for all.
The result being a forthcoming exhibition, opening on April 1st, at the Geldart pub, 1 Ainsworth street, Cambridge. More info here. Tell your friends about it! The pictures can be seen in my workplace’s lobby for the moment.

Thom Yorke was playing a one off gig in support of Tony Juniper (Green Party). On a personal level, this is a dream come true, for me to finally take pictures of Mr Yorke live. I was shaking when we met in the lobby of the venue 2.5 hours before the gig!

Jerry Ghionis superclass, SWPP convention, London

Jean-Luc — Fri, 15 Jan 2010 13:00:39 +0000

I spent 4.5 hours with Jerry Ghionis, one of the best wedding photographers in the world, in a bid to learn some of his tricks when it comes to pose a couple, and when you cannot really influence the location. Using natural light or even a video light.

I have been using this admin software for about 9 months now, and this has greatly improved the way I work. It helps me keep track of my contacts, organize my shoots, keep up-to-date with my day to day tasks, and export all the details of my shoots to my calendar, and to my iPhone via iCal. I can even send invoices bearing my branding. And there are so many more features that I have yet to discover and use. They also have a fab support section on the website, where you will find many useful tutorials. They are realeasing Version 2 of the software today. I am looking forward to upgrading as soon as possible. Check the website for more information.
