St Petersburg – Shoot at the Hermitage Museum
Feb 19th
I have just finished shooting a once in a life time assignment, photographing a couple in the Hermitage Museum in St Petersburg, a museum that rivals the Louve in Paris and the National Gallery in London.
It was a rare opportunity to use one of the premier museums in the world as the location for the wedding shoot. It was a breathtaking experience where I had unrestricted access for the day. Photographing around original works by Rubens, Leonardo, Raphael, Cezanne, Matisse, Picasso and Rembrandt’s was simply inspiring.
I couldn’t resist using a Rembrandt in the background of one of the images from the day.
The experience certainly makes up for the -20 degree temperatures.

Blogged Out!
Feb 10th
Regular followers of our blog might be wondering where I’ve been the last few months. While I can sometimes be accused of laziness (usually by my wife as she looks at the state of our yard on the weekends), it isn’t the reason I haven’t been posting for the last few months! After our last post it appears that one of those gremlins that sometimes leap into your computer systems and confound everything, made it’s way into our blog and we have essentially been locked out of our own blog since October!
After much hair pulling, and cursing, we are now back online!.
Better late than never here is our annual Christmas card that went out in December.
I will leave it to you to match the faces with the staff from the studio.
