The weather outside is frightful // Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

Firstly, I’d like to inform you that… Now a little about my past week’s festive shenanigans: Last Sunday was the Sunday Service Christmas Special it was a most triumphant evening. If you’re a regular visitor to my blog you’ll probably have seen images I’ve shot for The Sound Gallery of local acoustic bands playing at my Sunday Service night at Verve Bar in Leeds.  My pals & I have proudly run it for over 2 years now and we try to host only the cream of the local music scene and it’s great to see we’ve developed quite a following....

Dan Wilde Live Video // New Leads at Left Bank, Leeds • by Barnaby Aldrick

My buddy and all round skill musician Gavin Mart asked me along to photograph his ‘New Leads’ gig at ‘Left Bank’ arts space in Leeds last Friday. While I was photographing Dan Wilde (who’s played my Sunday Service night several times) Gav asked if I could shoot a little video and this is what I shot off the hoof (hence no stable tripod shots and some pretty ropey panning shots…) [Note: if the above video doesn't show in the Facebook feed, click here for the video] I know Dan well and love this cover he does of Richard Thompson’s ‘Beeswing’....

Georgie & Jonny // Misty Hazlewood Castle Wedding • Photography by Barnaby Aldrick

The last of my Winter weddings till after Christmas was with the lovely Londoners Georgina & Jonathan.  I really enjoyed meeting these two again at their beautiful wintery pre-wed at Hazelwood Castle a few months back (post here).  We had loads of fun and it was a joy to laugh and mess about photographing them.  I could tell they’d be easy work on their big day. The weather on their big day wasn’t ideal; umbrella flipping blustery rain, but we persevered and had a wonderful day.  Here are a few of my faves, beginning at the Georgie’s parents beautiful house...

Ich bin ein Berliner! // German weekend break • by Barnaby Aldrick

Last weekend Clare & I took a few day’s off for a winter break in Berlin! In spite of it being FREEZING we had an ace time roaming the streets, soaking in the great food, fascinating wartime & East/West history and gluvine! We flew in via the oft maligned but impressively cheap Ryanair, and caught the surprisingly confusing S-Bahn (suburban rail network) into town.  We changed onto the U-Bahn Subway and found ourselves on the U2 line, which actually had a Zoo Station!  I remember U2 recorded the groundbreaking Achtung Baby in Berlin in the 90′s and never pegged that...

Angie & Pete // Winter Woodlands Wedding • Photography by Barnaby Aldrick

Introducing the fabulous, the stylish, the glamourous Angie & Pete: A few weeks back I joined Angie & Pete for their winter wedding at Woodlands Hotel in Leeds.  It was cold and overcast, but loads of fun.  I shot their pre-wed with their cool daughter Louise a few weeks prior at Kirkstall Abbey (post here) and it was ace to hook up with them again. While Clare pottered over to the gents getting their kilts on (and thongs!) I caught up with Angie at their home round the corner.  I think I made that choice wisely… While Ange had her...
