Monday and Tuesday this week were quite possibly two of the most interesting days I have had since I started working in my current job fifteen years ago! Shortly before Christmas I was approached my the Marketing Manager at my office to request the co-operation of local employers so we could take pictures for inclusion on our corporate image bank. I really wanted to be part of this brief so with the kind permission of the Management I have spent the last two days working with the Department's Brand Manager, and two professional photographers from London.

It's been an amazing two days and has given me a real insite into the imagination, persistance and hard work it takes to be a successful commercial photographer.

On the Monday we were able to take a selection of images on a construction site, in an office environment and at a foundry manufacturing industrial heating systems. I am so very greatful to all the staff working for the employers we contacted. We were able to take some superb pictures, which will soon be enhancing corporate marketing materials.

Tuesday we visited a local supermarket, a cafe and a furniture factory. Whilst every effort was made to minimise disruption of the working day for all concerned, our presence would have obviously caused a degree of inconvenience for those who signed up. On a personal note I would like to say a really big thank you to everyone.
