Today was the CATS (Cheshire Awards for Tourism Skills) Masterchef competition held at West Cheshire College in Chester and let me tell you something right now: the heat was on in the kitchen! Four chefs were battling out, trying to outshine each other with a combination of their own ingredients and the "Mystery box" using local ingredients. Food photography on an empty stomach is a challenge in itself, but when you have to photograph some of the best chefs in Cheshire, it makes the job that much more complicated. In the pictures you'll find Dan Speak of De Vere Carden Park, Leigh Myers of the Grosvenor Pulford Hotel and Spa , Richard Clarke from De Vere Daresbury Park and Craig Malone from Nunsmere Hall Hope you like the pictures!

To say that we were looking forward to Amy and Neil's wedding would be an understatement. For almost a year we've seen Amy and her mum prepare for this most wonderful day, from the more common activities of a bride to be to getting a surprise boudoir shoot as a gift for the groom! The joy and energy Amy put behind her wedding was absolutely infectuous and we spent a lovely time during the boudoir photography session, the engagement photography session at Talacre beach and, of course on her big day in October. The venue, Soughton Hall was superb as is always is, the flowers from the Black Rose in Knutsford were perfect for the occasion and the evening entertainment in the form of a Ceilidh band finished off event fit for the day's princess. Here's a few pictures from the day. May your marriage be forever as happy as it started!
