Our work takes us everywhere, whether it's a new baby here in the studio, a family anniversary in their home or a black tie function at a grand hotel. The other week saw us playing with the soldiers from 655 Sqn AAC (V) during one of their training evenings. The grizzly weather wasn't enough to stop the lynx flying or the training going on!

We are fortunate in our work to photograph some lovely people and everything they are involved in and babies are no exception. The (arguably) most beautiful baby in the world and his mum joined us in the studio yesterday for another session. Young Master Cornwell is now 7 months old and able to sit up quite happily. He is a very cheerful little boy who is into everything and seemed to thoroughly enjoy the experience of having his portrait taken. He even met the studio hound, Mr Hooch, and was so excited at a cuddly toy that had come to life he wanted to hang from his tail and play with him!

Armed Forces Day 2010: we were the official event photographers for the festivities here in Salisbury. The sun was shining, people were smiling and it was generally a wonderful day. Despite the football drawing the crowds away at the end of the day the rest of the day saw a great response from all involved. Veterans and serving personnel from local units, including the cadets, were on parade and the crowds were entertained not only by the numerous acts on stage but also by the AAC's Historic Flight team, a spitfire fly-past and the AAC Band. Marvellous.

We now have gift vouchers available! Well, to be fair we've had them for a wee while but it's the first time we've made them this public. If you're stuck for a present for that awkward-to-buy-for friend or relative then try one of these. You can either give them a donation towards their sitting with the £25 option or go the whole hog and pay the £129. Either way it's a beautifully-presented timeless gift. Give us a shout to buy yours.

Our third birthday celebrations were the usual mixture of tea, cake and amiable company; for those that made it thank you. For those that didn't, shame on you and see you next year! I handed over the Ashes-sized Bake Off trophy to Mr Kevin Coyle, who trumped us all with his truly awesome Cor Blimey; a fabulous key lime pie. We had creations from work experience students, part-time bakers and those of us who prefer to do our baking in the wee hours of the morning. From Absolutely Marbleous to Tangy Lemon Teasers, Chocomel Nut Slice Supreme to Honey Biscuits, there was something to tickle everyone's tastebuds. We all left feeling slightly sick but on a definite sugar high!

We love working at carnivals, fairs and exhibitions and this year's Amesbury Carnival was no exception. We had a lovely day for it and met many lovely dogs and owners. The handsome chap above was the highlight of my day. There is always a fun dog show as part of the carnvial and the stall holders are asked to judge a category each. We chose Dashing Dude and so it was that I found myself in the arena with hounds of all shapes, ages and sizes, from which to choose my first, second and third. Harry was an instant winner - and his owner Lucy only entered him as a bit of a laugh. She was thrilled when I handed her the red rosette, and imagine her delight when he was later awarded the winner of winners trophy in the grand final, beating stiff competition from a beautiful belle, waggiest tail, golden oldie, cutest pup and trickiest trick. Harry was thrilled, Lucy and her mum were ecstatic, and I was chuffed to bits! Well done Harry!
