Julian Porter Photography bio picture
  • Welcome to our blog!

    Hello and welcome to our blog – Well this is more than a blog really as its an online journal of our working life with a few personal adventures thrown into the mix, Which should all make for an exciting read. Its also an ideal place for us to keep in touch with our past, future and existing clients.

    First and foremost Sue & I are wedding photographers so to be fair most of what you experience here will be wedding related, but we also enjoy contemporary portraiture both in our modern studio and out and about in Hampshire, especially in the New Forest.

    We also hope this blog will be a great informative source for anybody looking for a wedding or portrait photographer as well as anything more specialized that we do. You can find out about these by checking out our other websites on the left hand sidebar. We have been blogging since 2006 so you should find something of interest or someone you know!

    Jules and Sue.

Morwenna - May 17, 2011 - 2:46 pm

I love them both but think my vote goes to the black and White image x

Jules - May 17, 2011 - 2:48 pm

Thanks Morwenna, I am normally keen on black and white images but this one for me is colour, thanks so much x

Glen Jevon - May 17, 2011 - 2:50 pm

I’d split the difference and see what a ‘slightly’ desaturated one looks like..
If I had to choose between the two, I’d pick the colour one though :-)

Jules - May 17, 2011 - 2:51 pm

Thanks Glen, I will play with that later :-)

Ian Wright Wright Wright - May 17, 2011 - 5:25 pm

As usual another great shot, i would go with the Colour one, despite me usually prefering b&w

Jules - May 17, 2011 - 5:30 pm

Thanks Ian, thats my thoughts too

Cath Jevon - May 17, 2011 - 8:40 pm

I prefer the colour. The shapes of the neck, shoulder and arm are more defined and her skin tone makes the whole picture look more romantic. I love her expression, it’s a fabulous shot.

Jules - May 17, 2011 - 8:42 pm

Thank you Cath, I agree about the colour, thank you for your kind words x
