Aaron has decided to change the direction of his blogs. Now there will be two different blogs types either they will be information and advice blogs or image viewing blogs.

In the next two months look out for the following information blogs:

When do I book my wedding photographer?

How do I decide my photography budget and what if the photographer I want is more expensive than my budget will allow?

Whilst your awaiting the two above blogs here are some images from a recent trip that Aaron took to the lake district with his wife Rachel and their friend Louise. There are also some images taken inside of Louise’s house. Louise’s house through Aaron’s eyes you could say.

Please see below for a sneak peek and please click on the following link to view the rest of the Lakes images via Aaron’s Flickr account -Lakes2010/Aaron Tommasi Contemporary Wedding and lifestyle Photography

Last month I ran a free prize draw for a free Lifesytle Portrait shoot with one 10×7″ framed print (combined total cost of £215) included. There was so many entries that my wonderful wife decided that two people should win this. Which is what we decided to do. And the winners are………………Nigel Evans and Sarah Khadraoci. Congratulations to you both. Please get in contact with me so that we can arrange your shoots. I guarantee that you’ll have a great time and will end up with some timeless pictures like these below

I was without my Mac book pro last week as the display decided to die on me. A big thank you to the lovely guys at apple for fixing it in double quick time for me, and thank you machine for being a known fault which made a very expensive repair free…

I’ve been at the Water Gardens in Harlow recently promoting my portrait services, there has been alot of interest and the diary for lifestyle portraits is starting to become full quickly, so I would recommend booking asap to avoid disappointment (if you are wanting the images ready before Christmas).

I had a great lifestyle portrait shoot with Kim, Karen and little Jake this weekend. I’ve attached some images but to view more of the images from the shoot click on the following link -AaronTommasi/LifestylePortrait/TheWenzel20090920.

I also had a commercial shoot for a Kent based exhibition stand company called ESM who are launching a new product called HUB. Which is a stand that is not custom built like most stands. This product can however be set up so differently and can be so personalized so easily that you would think it is a custom build, but as it is not, it is a fraction of the price. I think these guys have developed and produce something so interesting here especially considering the current economical climate that I feel this will be a very successful product for them and I wish them all the best. To few images of this product please click on the following link -Aaron Tommasi/Commercial/ESM-HUB display.

I went into London Kings Cross as well to watch and shoot the amazing new band called Jon Paul Palombo. I could try and describe their music but I know I would be ridiculed by the band for a lame description, so I recommend that you go on the above link (the name of the band) and have a listen to them, my favorites are Jimmy and People, listen to me I sound like a groupy ha ha. A fantastic gig and some good images I’ve attached a few images to the bottom of the blog. to few more images click on the following link -Aaron Tommasi Photography/Live bands/Jon Paul Palombo some crazy lighting at the venue though, white balance thrown straight out of the window. Lucky I like a challenge.

I spent Saturday at the Water Gardens at Harlow advertising my lifestyle portrait service. I’m there for most of the month so if your in the area come and say hello. I’m running a prize draw whilst I’m there and the winning will recieve a free portrait shoot including one framed print as well. My wife and I found it very funny as the British mentality cannot seem to understand the concept of the word free and seem to think that there is surely a catch. Well I can assure everyone when i say free that is exactly what I mean. A big hello to all the people that stopped to say hello.

I hope everyone is doing well? Its been a very busy week for myself.

I currently in the process of contacting wedding venues in Essex with the aim of becoming a wedding photographer on their recommended suppliers list. I’ve looked into every venue I have contacted or are about to contact to see whether it is a venue I want to build a close working relationship with. I could have contacted as many as possible but I am a firm believer in quality not quantity. I believe that a good working relationship by all suppliers/venues etc leads to a greater experience for the bride and groom.

I’ve finally had time to process some images that I took on the day before my wedding. I’ve attached three of them below. To see a few more of these please click on the following link- Aaron Tommasi-Wedding-Portrait-Photography-Flickr/Wedding-Build-up.

I’ve also added Feats of Clay -a unique handcrafted cake topper company to my associates page. The toppers produced are amazing (please see at the bottom to see my own topper).

I meet up with Chris and Karen on Sunday. Who are getting married at St Donats Castle in Wales next August and have booked me as their wedding photographer.

We arrived back from Barcelona two weeks ago. I was very excited as I was going to start approaching wedding venues and get on their recommended wedding photographer suppliers list for next year and basically (to steal a line from the lovely ladies at Annabel Williams contemporary photography courses) start campaigning like Alan Sugar. Unfortunately I got swine flu and a week later gave it to Rachel, hows that for a wedding present. I’m better now and Rachel is just starting to improve. So its back to business for me. I have taken a look at alot of venues and have narrowed it down to a select few that I am interesting in approaching and will contact them by the end of the week.
