At this time of year my season has started , but its no manic, and so we decided to take a short break in Woolacombe, its really off the beaten track, but out of season, like most Devon seaside resorts, its beautiful and quiet. It also gives me a chance to take some much required images of the family. The 2 boys are growing up so quickly and I just dont get the opportunity to take as many images as I should. So here are a few.

For the last 3 years I have headed out to Dallas, Texas to be amongst what I consider to be some of the best wedding photographers in the world. The reason for my trip is to participate in a workshop that has helped my photography no end. The workshop is 4 days long, the first day is taken up by presentations from speakers such as Matt Mendelsohn, Amy Deputy and Deanne Fitzmaurice. The next 2 days are torture, you receive an assignment on the second morning, and you have to make your way to the assignment and get a story in pictures. The people know you are coming , but thats about it. You shoot for 2 days, and get all the images critiqued by night. I had the pleasure of being in Brooks Whittington’s team this year, and our critiques went on until 6.00am both days, we were then up again at 8.00am and out shooting.

My assignment this year was Angela Tucker. Angela is a partner in a law firm, a mother of 2 children, a wife to James, and she is also running for County Judge. My assignment was to document her for 2 days running up to the election. I must admit to having visions of an Obama style election campaign, speaking to thousands of adoring supporters. The reality of the situation was quite different, Angela whilst still working in the law firm, also runs the campaign, virtually single handed, as well as having to pick the children up from school, its a very hectic schedule, that mostly involved travelling in the car and being on the phone.

I thoroughly enjoyed my time in Dallas, and who knows, I may go back again next year.

Here are just a few of the images I captured over the 2 days.

Richard : Sounds and looks pretty scary! Great images though (Mar 05, 2010, 04:29PM)

Lionel : What a great set of images, she looks like a busy mom (Mar 05, 2010, 05:36PM)

Anthony Ward : love the B&W portrait of her (Mar 05, 2010, 05:37PM)

David Murray : David: It was so nice to see you again. And you DID nail it with the judge. This was hard, but photojournalism is hard. This woman has a crazy,busy life, and you illustrated it so well. Spot on mate! Next year you should be on my team! (Mar 09, 2010, 07:40PM)
