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.

Mothers day gift ideas. Norfolk Portrait photographer James Neale may be able to help.

We all know that mothers day is just around the corner, and if you didn't, you do now.

I struggle with presents for my mum. Every year I end up spending £50 on a fancy box of chocolates that she wont eat, a nice bunch of flowers that will be dead in a week, and a bottle of wine that she will open up when friends are round and everyone else will drink it. So a week after mothers day, my gift of £50 has soon been forgotten.

So I head to Google in search of some inspiration.....

RETRO CASSETTE HANDBAG



ARMADILLO HANDBAG



AN EGG SEPARATOR



GIANT ASPRIN



Not really the sort of things my mum would like, although I am quite taken by the armadillo handbag!

So the moral of this story is,

If you really want to get your mum something very special for mothers day, then why not book her a Photo shoot with the family. Prices start at just £45 and if booked before mothers day you will receive a complimentary 6x9 print.

So what you waiting for, If you want to give you mum a gift that she will cherish and memories that will last a lifetime, rather than a week, get over to www.jamesnealephotography.com or contact me on 07833491550 to book your photo shoot now!
