Ludlow Town House

The other day I had the opportunity to take pictures at a wonderful bed and breakfast in Ludlow called: Ludlow Town House.

Located right in the center of Ludlow, at 4 Brand Lane, with it's own parking space, the first thing that strikes you is the convenience. But the moment you open the door, a whole new impression quickly sets in!

Space, comfort and luxury with a countryside touch welcome you in from the start! The stable doors in the back open up to give you a small glimpse of the incredibly vast back garden.

The rooms are spacious and comfortable and this bed and breakfast offers little extras such as a shower large enough for 2 and a wonderful clawfoot bath.

The location and comfort of this B&B is supplemented by Karen, your wonderful hostess, making sure you can explore Ludlow on a full stomach and with all the information you need.

Family portraits in Llangollen...courtesy of the Wrexham Symphony Orchestra!

The other day I had the chance to take some pictures from a wonderful family from the Newcastle area!

Relatives from the Llangollen area won a free photoshoot at the Wrexham Symphony Orchestra's raffle. At every performance of the orchestra, people have a chance to win a free photoshoot for a family portrait session!

Despite the rain we had a great time with these two very energetic toddlers! This was great for us as it's always nice to see the children have a bt of fun outside. They'll be enough time for studio shoots in the winter, believe me!

Thanks again to the family for taking us on the offer! :)

Goodbye, Whatfest 2009!

After months of preparation and getting on BBC radio and Cheshire FM, THE Music Festival of Cheshire braved the bad weather and delivered once again!

3 full days of music on 2 stages, covering all styles from the jazzy Krystina Myles, to the hard dance music of Eskimo Smile, with the great Northwich band The Shallow Call for the fans of Indie Rock and Dodgy or the Bluetones for the more nostalgic.

Cheshire FM was really supportive as was The Pillar of Salt of Northwich, hosting the Battle of The Bands competition every week!

The Deva Victrix XXth Legion invade Milton Keynes!

The Deva Victrix XXth Legion of Roman Soldiers of Chester invading Milton Keynes and it's Midsummer Place Shopping CentreThe other day, I accompanied The Deva Victrix XXth Legion while they invaded the wonderful town of Milton Keynes! They made the best use of Virgin Train's new high speed link between Chester and Milton Keynes and even used Wifi on board! (Using a Macbook, of course!)

The Romans also enjoy a bit of class..

Then, they went to the Midsummer Place Shopping Centre to tell the shoppers that actually, they can also hop on the train to get to Chester for some fab shopping! Strange invasion, I know..

They gave out a few flyers about how to experience Chester's attractions and shopping at discounted prices and then hoped back on the train, chanting in Latin, but not before hanging around the studios of Milton Keynes's Heart FM.

What a day!!

Matt and Nathalie's E-Session at Talacre Beach, North Wales.

Beautiful beach, sun and sky... Beautiful couple... 20 MPH WINDS!!

Either way, we still had a great time shooting Matt and Nathalie at Talacre Beach, a really popular place with our couples!

I could go on an on about what we at Celynnen Photography do during these pre-wedding photoshoots and why they help making much better pictures on your big day, etc.

But right now,the only thing I want to concentrate on is the wonderful and beautiful looks these two give each other.

I predict lots of happy times ahead. :)
