What does a photographer do on his day off? He photographs of course, and yesterday was one of those days. The difference is yesterday it was in support of the Annual Charity Garden Party hosted by the delightful Emma & Jim at their home and ever stunning Thornbridge Hall & Gardens. This now annual event is for a great course and this year it was supporting Lainey K Foundation, Helens Trust, Macmillan Cancer Care, Boots for Africa, and the National Hereditary Breast Cancer Helpline.
How could I not capture this special event, especially on such a fantastic day. So Ros and I packing up the family we headed down to Thornbridge Hall, nr Bakewell in Derbyshire. We arrived shortly before 11am, and already the field was filling up rapidly with car. After the grand tour by the ever faith full Jackie, I set off armed and ready with two camera to capture the day. Problem was, it was huge, with so much going on it was hard to know where to start. Do I visit any one of the many stall, do I taste some of ther amzing cakes, or wild boar burgers, perhaps a I could try one of the beers, brewed by Thornbridge Brewery themselves. The event was spread across and within Emma and Jim's home, as once again they open their home and gardens for the public.
As I walked around the hall and garden's I stopped to chat to some of the visitors, and everyone I spoke to, no matter how young or old, all echoed the same feeling... ..."What a great event!"
Ok, enough of me talking about the event, if you went, you'll know wht a great day it was, for those that couldn't attend, then here are just some of the pictures I captured along the way.
