Good Morning to you all, its a lovely Sunday morning, and I keep realising Ive left it too long between blogs.
Ive had a pretty cool week. Lots of interesting up coming projects in the world of photography. And interest for 2012 weddings still coming. I was photographing a wedding yesterday at Nottingham, It was at the Council Building which is gorgeous. http://www.nottinghamcity.gov.uk/index.aspx?articleid=5499 It was a really busy day in Nottingham though, and the Bride left Her house by Horse and carriage at 3pm, I had to get into Nottingham and park by the time she arrived at 3.50, I made it in good time although my sat nav was playing games. Parking is a problem, but Talbot street parking lot was good value and close ish. Looked closer on the map!
The staff at the venue were very helpful and it did all go to plan. The place is great for photographs.
Today I'm photographing a gym training session for my photo-flex department. This is for an article in the nabba magazine. Its with a good friend Gary Noakes and over 50's champ Martin Holryd. Both are getting ready for the Mr Universe competition. Of which I'm an official photographer. Which is great fun and backstage is always busy, lively and tense with excitement. My website for photo-flex is being re-built as I type. The old one is still there as a new host is building it. It will have a generic look like http://www.leearcherphotography.co.uk/ but with the photo-flex logo.
It will have much improved galleries and content, and a better layout. I'm looking forward to adding the final touches to it, I get it as a template and add banners and content, of which I can provide for you too.
Have a good day and please follow using the link. thanks to my new follower J king.

A little update..
Hi to you all, I seem to forget to do my blog regular, so here i am having a go at updating.
I have recently been luck enough to work on some websites, I get to do the photography and also help set up the sites.
I have a great supplier of websites, that provides a great service and the cost is great. And of course for a great website you need great photographs.
I have also helped improve the SEO of the sites, for those new to websites this is how well you get found on google.
We all love and use google so this is who we try and impress with our sites.
The site i have helped set up and done photography for is www.sugarbulletgundogs.co.uk and Ive enjoyed working on this project and getting different photos. Its not a world I know anything about and I have no opinion on the sport. I photograph a given subject and that's my job.
I can help anyone get a great website, and help with the general design and photographic side, email me for information.
I use the same company i did for my site, and my fitness site photo-flex is getting re-done very soon.
Im a NABBA approved photographer so need a better site to showcase those fitness photographs.
I am currently running a competition on the facebook page for lee archer photography, where people post a photograph and get people to like it, the highest winner gets a £25 photoshoot in my doncaster studio.
Its great to see people trying to get more likes and get more people on my page. I will soon do a really big competition for a wedding prize. This will take some planning so people can get a fair chance to win etc.
As far as weddings are going, 2012 is booking up fast, the summer months are going, August 2012 is getting busy. Its going to be a real pleasure being there.
This years weddings have been great so far, the weather has been kind to us so far too. I have a wedding in Nottingham on saturday, which will be lovely. The couple have a horse and cart so im looking forward to the magical images I can capture.
There is always new things happening at Lee Archer Photography, I'm getting new wedding books and designs, and also products to show off the quality I sell.
Ok so Ive plugged a few things I wanted to tell you, so now Il give my tip this weeks for the up coming photographers.
Some people like to take slow exposures during the day, this is impossible when the light is bright as the camera metering system will use fast shutter speeds.
Id your camera will take one you need a ND filter, (Neutral Density Filter) which reduces the amount of light entering the camera, thus you can slow down the shutter speed, ideal for rivers etc.
These can be found in many top stores, have a shop around, and for geeky answers about the type, like a ND4,8 etc which is the amount of light it stops, have a google.
I'm happy to offer more advice on this by email, please get in touch.

Photo competition this weekend
Hi all. Just thought id let you know theres another competition to win a shoot this weekend, all you have to do is take a pic or use one your really proud of, and post it on http://www.facebook.com/pages/Lee-Archer-Photography/121184764614936?ref=ts
and get your friends to like it, simple.
They have to like the page for the vote to count and thats the only rule. If you get the most likes you get a shoot worth £25. Which comes with a free 10x8 print, this is in my Harworth studio. But you can pay the extra for a home shoot, which might be just £5 lol.
Its great to see your photographs, last week Stacey Allen of harworth doncaster won with a photo she took in Jamaica.
I'm working on some new venues for shoots, so if you have any ideas please let me know. I like old buildings, run down places etc.
Just to update on the wedding situation for 2012, Ive now 10 booked weddings, so get in fast. I cant wait, and still got alot to do this year yet. Its such a lovely moment getting the first wedding kiss on camera.
Just a short one today but keep in touch.
