An Invite to my latest Exhibition

My latest exhibition is in The Living Room and I'm inviting you all to drop by and join me for a cuppa...

Of course it's not MY Living Room. It's a fab little venue in York which does have sofas but does not have a shaun the sheep foot-rest or a tudor doll's house. I am told, however, that there will be something a little stronger than tea to drink.

All the details are above and also on my website. The exhibition runs until the 6th September, but if you want to come to the preview night on July 30th, please send me an email as it's guest list only.

See you there!

I'm the lady of the Manor! Sarahphotogirl adourns the walls of Castle Howard...

Yesterday five BRAND NEW photographs left Scarborough in the back of a rent-a-van. They were so new the camera didn't know they'd been taken yet.

I wept as the van turned the corner and headed off into the awaiting sea-fret. It was like sending your kids to school for the first time (not that I'd know as rats don't go to school) but I'm sure it felt the same much the same - tears of joy after six weeks of hard work resulting in having no life what-so-ever.

These images, part of the Her Dark Materials series are self portraits heavily influenced by fairytales and literature. They form part of the Picture Book Exhibition at Castle Howard and are displayed along side the wonderful costumes designed for me by the very talented students at Yorkshire Coast College.

This exhiition runs until September. Along side this I am soon to return to The Living Room in York. This opens to the public on Friday 31st July and around twenty images will be on dispay. If you would like to be on the guestlist for the preview night please email exhibition@sarahphotogirl.com

See you there!

What does a Witch on a Harley Davidson and a Not-so-Petis Pois have in common?

There have been some pretty strange going ons lately at Photogirl HQ. One day a witch on a Harley turns up at the studio and the next - 22 matresses and a pea the size of a car (or was that three mattresses, a petis pois and some clever post production?) Well however it happened, it certainly did happen and the fruits of all this labour will be seen for the first time Monday onwards. There's a lot of new exhibitions coming up so please check back over the next few days for a full list of where you can see my new work.

Read all about me in the latest PHOTOICON magazine!

The nice people at PHOTOICON have written all about me in the latest rock and roll edition of their very wonderful magazine. Its glossy and it feels nice on the fingertips...this is the Vogue of the photography magazine - I'm so excited I'm going to run off for a little wee ;)

My photos are appearing in all good book stores near you!

An A-Z of Franz Ferdinand, originally uploaded by sarahphotogirl.

This week I have discovered that I have photos in an A-Z of Franz Ferdinand and also in Paul Weller - The Changing Man! That's not a bad week for little 'ol me :)

I have only worked with Franz Ferdinand once, unlike Paul who I have worked with many, many times. He's a nice man to spend time with and, although an established and respected musician, he is much more down to earth than a lot of the bands who have just made it.

Watch out for singer/songwriter Maria Jordan

My latest commisioned work is for singer/songwriter Maria Jordan. We spent the day on the North Yorkshire Moors taking photographs for her album and website. The telephone in the above photograph was 'borrowed' from my flat because Maria took a liking to it at our pre-shoot meeting!

Sarahphotogirl featured in Digital SLR User magazine

I have just been written about in Digital SLR User. Although I have been the subject of numerous articles in the past, this is the first one to look at just my wedding photography. The article featured four photographers who are better know for a different genre of photography (mine is rock photography) and was titled 'Weddings as Well'. You can read the full article here.
