Music Promo Photography: The Siren Sisters | Concorde

We had the pleasure of photographing a charity ball in the wonderful surroundings of The Concorde Hangar at Manchester Airport. We were on site to photograph guests and provide on the night prints to contribute towards the charity funds and also to document the evening for the charity to use for press releases.

One of the acts on the night were the vintage trio The Siren Sisters, who entertained the attendees upon arrival. We got some photos of the trio in action as well as some promo photos with the special backdrop of the Concorde aircraft. It was great, if a little unexpected, to get private access to photograph on Concorde! Below are some more photos of The Siren Sisters at The Concorde Hangar at Manchester Airport.

Simon J. Newbury Photography are very proud to launch a brand new wedding album as part of our Main Wedding Photography Collections.

The new wedding album is hand made in Italy, like all our other wedding albums in our main collections. The Delamere Tokyo comes from Venice Album and is unlike our other albums. The Delamere Tokyo album is a combination of creativity and simplicity. The unique method of binding the album recalls the ancient techniques used in Japan, to bind books and documents. With a decorative cord intricately weaved into the book’s spine, these albums are hand-made  to ensure the highest quality.

Macclesfield Town Hall Wedding Photography | Michelle & Mark

We had the great pleasure of photographing the intimate wedding of Michelle and Mark in the Town Hall, Macclesfield recently. It was certainly an intimate affair with just twelve people at the wedding, including the Bride and Groom! It was a really laid back ceremony followed by some photos at the beautiful Town Hall entrance and stairs.

We then all headed off to The Alexandra Court Hotel in Congleton for some more photography including the couple shots and the group shots. It was probably the easiest full group photo we will ever do with just twelve people! This was then followed by a beautiful reception.
