A Truly Vintage Affair

I was invited to spend  a Glorious Sunny Afternoon Photographing A vintage Affair at Hedingham Castle on Sunday, it was lovely to see the crowds of people gathered together for this colourful jolly event held in association with Juniper Flowers of Sudbury in such a lovely location.


The event Featured the Galaxy Big Band who performed forties style swing Jive and Jazz music along with the Cambs & Beds Lindy Hop Experience who
provided the dancing entertainment,
between them, the vintage vehicles, the array of stalls selling many interesting items from days gone by,
 fabulous food and  fantastic sunshine.
It was 'A Truly Vintage Affair' for all to enjoy young
and old alike and a pleasure to capture.

All of the photos Taken on the day can be found on my website at  Picklejar Pictures View your Pictures Page to view and purchase

Photoshoot for Millie and her Family


Millie Brown is a four year old little girl from Halstead, Essex. Until recently she was healthy and running around, being mischievous just like any other four year old. On Monday 14th April 2014 she was admitted to Colchester Hospital where a CT scan revealed a Brain Tumour.

She was immediately admitted to Addenbrookes Hospital, Cambridge where a further MRI scan confirmed it was an inoperable Brain Stem Tumour. Millie began a three week course of radiotherapy on Monday 28th April 2014. They hope is that the treatment will prolong Millie's life. A Facebook page has been set up to help raise money for Millie to ensure that her life is magical and happy.
