I am grateful to Jackie for the following testimonial which I received as a letter and have typed in verbatim:

“This is a testimonial for Dale Strickland-Clark of Immortaleyes Photography.

My youngest daughter has recently had her first baby. He is called Sam, and he’s lovely!

I wanted to give Frances my daughter and her husband Darren, a treat, and I asked Dale to come to their house to photograph them all.

He arrived on time and spent a good hour and a half making them feel comfortable and at ease ready for the photographing. The results are stunning and capture their little family perfectly.

Thank you Dale – I appreciate your expertise and professionalism and I will recommend your work to anyone I meet.

Kind regards

Jackie”

Wedding Fair

I was asked at short notice to attend a wedding fair at the weekend by wedding make-up specialist and artist, Sheila, who wanted to get some shots of her work.

The fair was organised and hosted by Ely Hotel in Blackwater near Camberly. It was only a small affair but there were some interesting people there – including a dressmaker who blew any stereotypes I might have had about dressmakers completely away. She listed power-lifting among her interests and showed me her muscles to prove it.

Her wedding dresses were superb creations.

Sheila had asked a model, the lovely Frankie May who I’ve worked with before, to come along and be a bride for the day. Frankie would be the object of some attention while Sheila demonstrated some bridal make-up. I was asked to photograph the process and the results.

I haven’t had time to go through all the pictures yet but here’s one that stood out. As you can see Sheila is a skilled and talented lady.

I’ll post more later.

Last night’s fund-raising event for Support U at the Rising Sun in Reading was a big success. I was only there for a short while and left before it got really busy but I got some pictures, a selection of which are below. There are more on my Facebook page.

This event, like many I help out with, was organised by the lovely people at 3Munkees.

I had a load of fun shooting The Only Way is Bling Ball on Saturday night at Taplow House. They were a great bunch of people and the venue is beautiful with real character.

The web site promoting the event says dress to impress and there were some lovely outfits on show.

The whole event is to raise money for cancer research so it’s all in a good cause.

The pictures for the ball are now accessible through the Events page. If you were at the ball, please contact the event organiser or email me for the code.

Here is a selection of some of my favourite shots from the evening.

This morning saw the gathering of around sixty people for the Charity Fit Camp for Robbie the Robot at Bearwood Rec in Winnersh.

The turn out was excellent considering the chilly morning and there were all ages present working off their Christmas pounds and overcoming the holiday lethargy.

You can find a write-up of the event on FastTrack Fit Camp’s web site along with my pictures.

Wondering around with my camera prevented me taking a full part in the exercises but I still left significantly the better for it.

I’m not just photographing this but I’m doing it too.

For the second year, after the success of last year’s event, FastTrack Fit Camp are holding a charity fitness event on Bearwood Rec., in Winnersh.

The event is in aid of the Robbie the Robot Appeal - a charity supporting the operation of robotic assisted key-hole surgery on prostate cancer sufferers.

So here’s a chance to work off those mince pies and Christmas pudding and reverse the decline from sitting around for days, while your muscles whither.

Register for the event here, which takes place on Monday, January 2nd and starts at 10:00. It only lasts 45 minutes and you might just discover a really effective way to keep fit that doesn’t require a gym membership or take hours every week.
