Business Associations

Filed under: General, Media news, Weddings — sorcha @ 7:29 pm

Over the last few months we have become associated with a few local businesses, and have decided to provide various vouchers for our mutual promotion.

We were delighted to be approached by the Crescent Specialist Dental Centre, the most renowned specialist orthodontic practice in the Southwest. In addition to their multi-award winning specialist dental care, they are also now offering a number of aesthetic procedures. What better time to celebrate your smile than when you have your brace removed? Celebrate your new smile with a complimentary portrait sitting & 10″x 8″ print from SHP! The vouchers will be given out on the day your brace is removed…

I am also delighted to announce that everyone who buys a Bridal Gown from Prudence Gowns or the Ivory Tower will receive a £100 discount vouchers to be used towards any Sorcha Holloway Photography wedding package, subject to availability… I highly recommend Sonya and her team at Prudence Gowns and Janine and Michelle at the Ivory Tower. It has been a pleasure to work with them recently on various shoots, and I look forward to a long association with both in the future…

I thought it would be nice to share with you this little video that I am currently showing on Baby TV in the ante-natal clinic of our local hospital. Just a little promotion, primarily of my Pregnancy and Newborn Portraiture.

BIPP Regional Awards

Filed under: Awards, General, Media news, Pets — sorcha @ 4:59 pm

Last night the BIPP Western Regional Awards Event was held in Exeter. There were a record number of entries this year and the standard was very high indeed, so I was a little nervous to start with. They started the evening off with the Wedding category, and I was delighted to receive an Award of Excellence with this image of Naomi & Steve Manser in the Bathing Hut at Pentillie Castle on a very wet day in November:

Naomi & Steve, Pentillie

The Pets Category came shortly afterwards, and I was delighted to have all my three images in the awards, with overall Pet Photographer of the Year going to this image:

"Never trust a dog with orange eyebrows..." Terry Pratchett

And Awards of Excellence for both of these:

Bella

Skye

Finally, in the highly contested Portrait Category, I was awarded a further two Awards of Excellence for these very different portraits:

Portrait by the Burj Al Arab

Esme

I hope this reflects the breadth of social photography I enjoy, and also the high standard of the work I produce…
Thanks to all the Western BIPP Committee, and the Judge, Nigel Trebbeck FBIPP! When they email the photo of my trophy being presented to me by Chris Harpur, CEO of the BIPP, I’ll pop it on the blog too… Haven’t seen it yet, hopefully I’ll look ok!!!

Radio Devon!

Filed under: General, Media news — sorcha @ 8:41 pm

As a result of my little piece in The Herald last week, I had a call this morning from BBC Radio Devon… They were wondering if I’d like to be a guest on the morning breakfast show next Monday! Sounds like fun… Listen between 08.30 and 9.00 hrs. If you’re not local, you can listen online at http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/playlive/bbc_radio_devon/

Just hope I come across well now that I’ve told everybody!

Apart from all this excitement, the Christmas rush is now coming together nicely and I can start thinking about Christmas! And maybe next week I’ll be able to spend a little more time on my Boudoir Website; watch out for it in the New Year www.plymouthboudoirphotography.com
