Rainow Punk Photoshoot

Jo Belfield Photography had a great time in the Cheshire village of Rainow photographing the gorgeous model Alix Dillon for a punk styled photoshoot. We were ably assisted by the amazing make-up talents of the lovely Vicki Oulton and ended up with some of my favourite images to date.

Photographing Michelle Kay for TV!

Jo Belfield Photography had the pleasure of photographing Michelle Kay who runs the web development company Your Webstar . The original use for the photographs were as corporate portraits, but when Michelle decided to apply to go on ITV's Tonight programme it was one of those photographs she chose to send them.

Michelle duly appeared on the programme talking indepth about women over 35, their self-image and their careers. The photograph was apparently well-received by the TV Company and appeared in a number of scenes too.

Congratulations Michelle! We always knew you were a Web star but now you're a TV star too!

Fashion Shoot in Macclesfield

I took models Katy Tyrell and Steven Mathers into Macclesfield to meet make-up artist Louise Kennedy. We did a photoshoot based around a very familiar part of the town and I was very pleased with the results. I love shooting on location and being inspired by not only the models and the clothes but also the architecture and surrounding landscape and how these four elements interact together.

A catch up

Okay, so whilst you can catch up with me at @JoBelfield on Twitter, it would not seem I am a habitual blogger. So the next few entries are a little catch up of some of what I have been up to over the last few months....

I was lucky enough to photograph the fabulous Manchester band Twilightrobin at the Mind Body and Boogie festival 2009 in Bollington. I have been following this band for a number of years now and their music just gets better and better. Photos here are top: Alex on Bass guitar, Middle: Phil on lead guitar and bottom: Ben on vocals.

Driveway

I have passed this driveway on many occasions but never photographed it..... I love the interplay between the different patterns in the stonework, cobbles and the lines of the drive itself.

I am hoping to get accredited in architectural photography so you should see more landscape and buildings from me soon!
