New studio and the first shoot - July 2010

  

It's been all go here recently with lots of exciting work in progress and I am pleased to be able to announce that my new studio is up and running at last!

It's a wonderful space, built professionally and at a great price by Shane of Just Magic buildings. I would highly recommend his work

The very first session I did was with my family, we all got together and I took some photos of us all for my mum and dad's birthday present - a great way to christen the space.

To celebrate this exciting new development I am thrilled to be offering 10 studio sessions at 20% discount on both a studio session and the prints ordered. Contact me via www.janetpenny.com to make the most of this offer.

Website images - July 2010

I first visited Cherry Gardens Organic Farm last year, to shoot some pictures for Playground magazine. This time round I returned to take some more for Cherry Gardens upcoming website. The farm is a great place, full of gorgeous looking fruit, veg and flowers with the opportunity to pick your own. The farm shop is crammed full of organic delights from the farm and further afield.
I will be going back again in September to photograph more delicious produce but until then, feast your eyes on these two pics.

Pinhole workshops - July 2010

Two Fridays of pinhole workshops coming up. I love these days, they are so full of the unexpected. This time round we will be making large pinholes using 120 film, to give the students an idea of the process behind this (last time we used photo paper). Looking forward to it

Playground Magazine - June 2010

I spent such a calm and tranquil morning at Dorte's sewing class in Mayfield, I didn't want to leave. See the results here, or better still, grab a copy of the new issue of Playground magazine and see it in the flesh.

Wedding photography - May 2010

My second wedding and I'm beginning to get addicted to them. It's so wonderful to be such an integral part of someone's special day. This wedding was a very intimate affair, just six of us, including the bride and groom but so full of emotion. What's great for me is that I'm really finding my stride with the images I take. The combination of colour digital and black & white film is a real winner and adds something extra to the images.

Book cover - 2010

I was thrilled to find out that one of my images has been used on a book cover by Random House.
Looks like a good book too. Given that I LOVE reading, this is the best news for me.

Private Portrait - May 2010

I love shooting on location, especially when the location is as beautiful as this and with so much meaning to the people I'm photographing. We had great fun riding from one lovely spot to another.
6 adults, 7 children, 3 dogs and a herd of cattle. Oh, and some rain. Now that's what I call a portrait session!
