I also have a full page advertisement in the matchday programme. As well as the action shots I have taken the full squad photograph, recently published in the Chronicle and all the player portraits.<\/p>\n<p>There are many fundraising events held at the Weaver Stadium including after dinner speaking. I was privileged to be invited along to a recent event starring BBC football commentator John Motson OBE. I had a good chat with John and also did a monochrome portrait which was also included in the &#8216;People&#8217; exhibition. Last night England and Arsenal legend Ray Parlour was at the Weaver! I was once again invited to attend and provide the event photography and produced a portrait of Ray.<\/p>\n<p>Ray had some great stories to tell about his playing days and a great evening was had by all!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonjnewburyphotography.co.uk\/portraits\/sports\/sports.html\" title=\"Sports Portraits\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the summer I was appointed the official club photographer for Nantwich Town FC.
