McDonald Photography is expanding

HI Everbody

Well Erika & i have taken the decision to re-invest this year in our web presence. We're finding so many people are interested in more and more detail. So we decided, if that's what our customers want, your wishes shall be granted. We're now going to have a dedicated portrait site, a dedicated wedding site with lots more detail & also a more complete blog with lots more opportunity to showcase our work in its full glory. We will be working hard to complete this over the next 3-4 weeks so we'll keep you posted with the progress.Of course we're going to have great launch party, well a bottle of bubbly between Erika & I anyhow.

If you ahve any great ideas, drop us a mail we're always interested in hearing your views on what you'd like to see...

If you're planning a wedding this year then we'd love to hear your ideas.

Take care

Hi There

I had a great day last Saturday, the sun was blazing hot & it was Pimms on the lawn thank-you-very-much. I've posted a few images from the day, there was no bridal preparations but that's fine. I think we captured some lovely images throughout the day.

Hope you like,

Enjoy

Studio images from Saturday 13th June

HI Everyone

Firstly what a great weekend I had, Erika & I went along to the comedy store in Manchester. Erika is now 5 months pregnant which is just awesome, but i was a little concerned with the belly laughing at one point. Happy times! :-)


I also spent a day in the studio on saturday with three great people, which was just fabulous so here are a few from hundreds of shots from the day which i've picked out for you to have a peek at.

I'm really excited about how this time spent stepping back & learning new techniques is going to push my wedding & portrait work to a new level.

As always i'd love to hear your feedback

Thanks, Andy

Its nearly summer & we're busy to boot !

Hi Everyone,

Firstly its going to be a great Bank holiday & i hope that you're all spending it with your loved ones.

Well i've just returned from a hectic few days in London, i used to work in London & i do like to visit, maybe it's my age, but commuting isnt something i miss.

Well i thought i'd give you an update on a few things happening in June, so you can keep a look out. We have 2 great weddings over the next 3 weeks & also a portrait shoot, so we'll share some images as soon as we can, we know alot of our customers like to keep an eye on our work ;-).

I've also got two very exciting personal projects being planned, which i'm so excited about i cant tell you. I have a professional stylist working with me to design sets, clothing, everything really! its going to be fabulous. As a result i thought i better get some studio time in, so i'm working with 3 models in June to test run a few ideas...keep an eye out for some test shots coming soon & a little more detail.

Thats it for now, remember if you're reading this for the first time, then its good to have you & if you're a regular then welcome back, Erika & i hope to hear from you soon.

Take care, Andy & Erika x

Perfect little lady "Millie"

Hi Everyone

Erika & i had a fabulous weekend, Saturday we had a lovely day shopping & the weekend was rounded off with a portrait shoot with "Millie" who was without doubt a natural & so so HAPPY all afternoon, despite the rain showers. We had some great fun, which including a walk or maybe run on role from a very cute doggy, which Millie adored, Erika did too, so maybe we'll be seeing one soon??

Thankyou Millie, Kate & Lee.

Something Different

Hi There
Well i spent a day in the studio with a very big name in the photographic world, Damian McGillicuddy as part of the SWPP mentoring programme. As a fellow in his own words "he's putting something back in" & i'm only to happy to learn alongside some like minded photographers, looking to push themselves & excel at what we do. I've added a couple of images to show you all, your feedback is always welcome.

Best wishes

Andy & Erika
