Australia 2012 // Holiday movie shot on the Sony HX9v [by Barnaby Aldrick Photography]

Thumb

Greetings! Well, I’ve been back from our three week January break in Australia for a good few days now and apart from getting some quality time in with the pooch, I’ve basically been chopping together a wee holiday video to remind us of our trip; taking in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane & Fraser Island.  Check it out: The music is the beautiful ‘Hush’ by Aussy folk-duo ‘Angus & Julia Stone’ (track and album available to buy here) I was inspired by a post fellow snapper Cris Matthews pointed me to on f-stoppers.com (here), entitled ‘How a professional photographer should document a vacation’.  It...

Sarah & Henry’s Wedding Slideshow // Norwood Park, Southwell [by Barnaby Aldrick Wedding Photography]

Norwood Park Wedding Photography 047

A very Happy New Year to you all!  I hope your evenings were all they could be, and hope 2012 brings promise & fun for all of you! On Friday, I joined Sarah & Henry to photograph their wedding at Norwood Park in Southwell, in Nottinghamshire. Norwood Park’s such an ace place for wedding photography.  It was one of the early venues I shot in my wedding photography career, for my (now) good friends John & Helen. Last time I was there it was a glorious summer’s day, and this time it was one of those winter days that just drizzled pretty much...

Sophie & Rob // Pre-Wedding Photography – Castle Bolton, Yorkshire Dales [by Barnaby Aldrick Photography]

Castle Bolton Yorkshire Dales-011

Last week I posted a blog of images shot one beautiful day deep in the Yorkshire Dales (post here). The reason I was up was to going a lovely upcoming wedding couple called Sophie & Rob! We were up in the Dales to have a nosey round their simply brilliant wedding venue, Bolton Castle for their wedding early 2012. It’s on the fringe of Satnav’s comfortable zone, and Jane tried to take me up various exciting tracks and across gated fields full of cows. But I finally found myself up in the pretty village adjoining Castle Bolton, not far from Leyburn....

Feeling Festive // The Sunday Service Christmas Special Brew [by Barnaby Aldrick

Xmas Sunday Service Call Lane Social 014

Happy Boxing Day peeps!  Hope your Christmas was ace and you’ve left over turkey, pringles and baileys to get creative with! One of my favourite things about Xmas is the Christmas special of my gig night, The Sunday Service.  It’s on the last Sunday of every month, generally showcasing three ace bands from near and far, at Verve Bar in Leeds.  The Christmas Special Brew however, is always my fave of the year, as we ask back a whole bunch of bands that we’ve enjoyed over the year, and get them to play short sets of 3 songs each, including a...

Winter sun on the Yorkshire Dales // Bolton Castle [by Barnaby Aldrick Wedding Photography]

Castle Bolton Yorkshire Dales-011

Happy Christmas Eve all! Last weekend I was up at Bolton Castle in the heart of Wensleydale (nowhere near Bolton!) to do a pre-wed at for a wedding I’m shooting early next year.  It was an impressive building indeed, and I’m gonna be doing a separate post about the stunning 14th Century medieval castle and pre-wed shoot with Sophie & Rob in a few days, but it’s positioned in such a beautiful part of the Dales that I thought I’d do a post of images I blazed while in the area!The sun was beginning to peep out on my way through Wensleydale...

Sunday Service November // Music Photography [by Barnaby Aldrick]

Sunday Service Verve Leeds November 015

Happy Christmas Eve Eve y’all! Some of you dear readers may know I host and organise a band night in Leeds called the Sunday Service.  It’s a free night at Verve bar in Leeds on the last Sunday of every month and our mantra is to champion the cream of the North’s singer songwriter talent and pay them in beer and pictures.  It’s always a great night where music fans come to respectfully listen to good music, and bands play all the better in that listening environment! First up were the amazing Garforth & Myers, so named cos Rory Garforth is...

Pilla ‘Take The Boat In Style’ // Music video filmed on iPhone 4S! [by Barnaby Aldrick]

Pilla Vimeo Thumb 2

It’s kinda quiet time in the wedding world at the moment, so for a bit of a laugh yesterday, I hooked up with good buddy & excellent musician Dave Pilla, and we filmed a music video on my iPhone 4S. Check it out: Pretty crazy what you can do with a phone eh?! For the geeks out there here’s how I did it: I took one iPhone 4S (which has a great little HD camera on it, though exposure is more manually controllable with the ProCamera App) clicked it into a Glif, a low profile iPhone fixing with a tripod attachment in...
