KeyAgent Property Photography

So last friday - 15th July, I went and photographed a property For Sale in Hereford. The job was offered up by KeyAgent who paid by estate agents to commission freelance photographers, to photograph properties for their clients.....It's all a bit random if I'm completely honest, but i was sent along to this house to take photos. They give you a good handfull of rules and regulations on how the photo should be taken - height, lighting, etc. But i wasn't there to complain because they were paying, a bit of money.

So I did the work and have sent them the pictures, just waiting to get paid now. 

Beckford Fine Art

So I have signed up to show work in the Beckford Fine Art (http://www.beckfordfineart.co.uk/) Ludlow Castle Exhibition next year. Have to pay of course, but they do all the advertising, and marketing and setting up of the exhibition. And I get a stand which will be able to show a few full sized framed pictures, and a webpage with them showing off work too. I think it'll be good and a good little "investment"!

Also, the names will cange i think - especially the Yellow View one but i couldnt think of anything else while working on it and saving it so there you go!! And if you look veeeeery closely on that picture you can see a plane in the sky. It'll be like a Where's Wally!

Look at me ma, top of the world!!

Another addition to my Dead Animal series. This poor fellow was found just down the road from my house, i think he must have fallen out the tree because he seemed in perfect condition...apart from the deadness.
