Pete Norton

Hi every one.
Welcome again to the Norton Photography blog Yeah I know it's been a while again. I've got no excuses I just get so busy that when I get the time to blog I don't think to do it and when I think to do it I don't have the time. It's a week excuse but hey it's the truth! Any way what's been going on at Norton Photography? Well The camera club I put together is really coming on. We have been meeting up every other Monday since November and the membership is getting quite large now and I've had quite a few enquiries in the last week so watch this space we could end up taking over.Ha Ha!
I took a group out on a Norton Photography street shoot a few weeks ago. Everyone had a real blast. I've put a couple of images up for you all to have a look at. Congratulations have to go out to Laura who came on one of my night school classess about a year ago and has stayed with me ever since by joining the camera club.She also went on to sign up for further classes as well such as basic studio lighting and fashion. Well she had her first paying portrait sitting last week and I have to say her images are fantastic. She was asked to cover a children's shoot on location at their own home which can be very tricky as you never know what equipment you need to take and Laura still only has the bare basics. Needless to say she was superb. All the images she showed me I would be more than proud to hang on own my studio walls.
Well done Laura
It's also Big Ups for Ann Bugg who came along on one of my camera familiarisation days about six months ago. She had bought a new camera as she was getting a little tired with the performance of her point and shoot and wanted something she could take control of. Well a couple of weeks ago she held an exhibition of her Sunset and landscape images. All I can say is Ann your a very dark horse. You have surprised everyone at the club. We all wish her every success with the sales of her prints and postcards.
As you will see from the street shoot images Natasha is getting on great. We have been working on her portfolio and she really is fantastic a model.
On the subject of models I would like to introduce Eva.
I was at a my good friend Leo's party last weekend and got talking with her. She told me had always wanted to get into modeling but wasn't sure how to go about it, if she was good looking enough or even if she had what it takes. Well answers on a postcard please. NO SERIOUSLY! Let me know what you think and I will pass on your comments.
