“Wedding Photography – A Guide to Photojournalism” published by Oliver Cameron Publishing is my first book. 

The book is aimed at beginners all the way through to professionals. It’s 7×5 in size – so it fits perfectly in your camera bag for inspiration whenever you’re shooting.

I take the reader through every aspect of my shooting and thought process – I want it to feel like the reader is actually there with me on the shoot. I hope it’s well received as I put my heart and soul into it. 

Chapters in the book are:

• My approach to wedding photography
• The Basics
• Preparing for the Shoot
• Shooting the Preparations
• At the ceremony
• Shooting other kinds of ceremonies
• Drinks Reception and Cocktail hour
• Understanding the Importance of Light
• Shooting the couples portraits
• Wedding Breakfast and Reception
• When not to Shoot
• Shooting Destination Weddings
• Post-Wedding Considerations
• Developing your observational skills
• Be inspired

While I was there, I decided to venture to a local rodeo to take some pictures.  I called Cindy the chute boss of a local place called The Buffalo Chip a few days before and arranged an access all areas pass to get up close to the action.

What was most shocking was the age of some of the riders.  One of them was 12!!!  They seemed very young to be doing something so dangerous.  That night it was 15 bucks a ride.  Some of the cowboys asked me if I fancied giving it ago – to which I politely declined!

It was a great thing to document, I hope you enjoy the pictures.

These old cowboy boots were hanging on the ceilng of the bar – like trophys.
