Business Brainstorming Session, Norwich, Norfolk

Last night i was doing a simple brainstorming session on my own, thinking about where i want my business to go, thinking up new ideas, and generally trying to find answers to questions. It suddenly occurred to me that this process would be alot more beneficial if i done it with a group of people. A few more scribbled notes on my piece of paper and here we are.

This is just an idea, and i am looking to see if people would be interested in taking part. It would take place in August on a week day between 10am and 3pm (Date TBC) and in the Norwich Area. There would be a small cost of around £25 per person. Groups would be limited to 6 people to give each person time to discuss their business in Detail.

Have a read below, and let me know what you think. to register your interest please send me a brief email to smile@jamesnealephotography.com

Are you new to business?
Have you recently setup a business?
Are you already in business but need some fresh ideas?

Why not get together and help like minded business owners explore new directions, increase profits, and solve problems, through providing ideas, answers and sharing success stories.

The day will be split up into sections and each member will have time to tell us about their business, tell the group about anything they are struggling with, and where you would like to push your business. The group will then brainstorm some ideas to help answer your questions.

below is a guide to how the day will be broken down.

So the hit TV show 'The Apprentice' is back on our screens next week, and this year they have changed the format slightly.

In recent years the winner has gone on to get a six figure salary at one of Lord Sugars organisations, but this year they will be getting a new business partner, none other than Lord Sugar himself with a cash injection of upto £250'000.

Back in January I was commissioned to photograph Jamie Lester who came third in the last series of the Apprentice. What a great guy to work with, very professional, and a great person to be around. Fingers crossed this year i might get to work with some more of The Apprentice candidates.

Richard + Heidi = Married!!! - Photography by Norwich wedding photographer James Neale

A few weeks ago whilst most of the country headed to the bookies to place bets on the grand national, i was lucky enough to be part of a great wedding that was almost a non starter. Richard and Heidi had booked me for there wedding last year and all was going well until the venue they had booked went into administration. This resulted in the couple losing half their money and leaving them just a couple of months to re plan their wedding. But with a 'can-do' attitude and the help of Heidi's mum, the couple got stuck in to start planning another wedding, this time even bigger and better.

I arrived at Brisley Bell inn, to meet the Groom and groomsmen whilst they were having pre wedding drinks in the sun. After 15 mins of trying to work out how to tie a cravat and working out which side the button holes need to be, we grabbed a few candid shots and i headed over to see the bride. Heidi was very calm, and has to be the most punctual bride i have ever met, she was ready to go about half an hour before she needed to be. We made use of the time and got lots of photos of the beautiful bridesmaids, an extremely happy mother, and the brides father, who was looking a little nervous, maybe down to the dreaded speech he would have to give later in the day.

When i arrived at East Bilney Church, the atmosphere was buzzing! With nearly 100 guests it was packed to the rafters. One of my favorite things at a wedding is seeing the look on the grooms face when he finally gets to see what his wife to be looks like, and with a beautiful hand made dress, designed and made by the brides mum, Heidi certainly didn't disappoint!

It really was a fantastic day, the weather was amazing, and everything went smoothly. The wedding breakfast and reception was held at the beautiful Hunters Hall in Swanton Morley, where the dancing and fun carried on until late that night.

I give you the new Mr & Mrs Clemo

James Neale Photography launches new referral scheme incentive.

Hey everyone,

Here at James Neale Photography we find that 90% of our work comes from word of mouth, so we thought, that it would be good to incentivise it a little to make sure we look after the people who keep recommending our service.

If you recommend our fantastic wedding collections to your friends and family, and they go on to book their wedding day with us, we will pay you 5% commission as a way of saying thank you.

For example,

£500 wedding collection = £25 cash for you.
£750 wedding collection = £37.50 cash for you.
£1000 wedding collection = £50 cash for you.

How it will work.

All you need to do is pass on my name, number and website to people that you know are getting married. Im currently booking weddings for 2011, 2012 and even 2013 for the really organised people.

Once you have recommended us to them, just get them to give me a call to arrange a time to go over and see them. You can also give me text, call, facebook message, email with their details so that i know you have recommended them to me. If they then go on to book, i will send you a cheque. its that simple.

If you would like some of my cards, just let me know and i will kindly send some out to you.

Have a great day!

James
