Had great fun and satisfaction from being involved with the ladies of Kemerton WI to help produce their 2017 calendar. Myself and fellow photographer, Rose Finch, never having done anything quite like this before, were a bit apprehensive beforehand, as I think were the WI ladies themselves! It took great courage to bare all in front of two strangers but after we got the first "month"under our belt we all relaxed and a great time was had by all! The shoot was done over two separate days in June and July and proved quite a challenge at times especially when trying to replicate Christmas in June or Bonfire night in July!
The Calendar was eventually finished and printed and the launch was last night at The Crown in Kemerton. Great coverage by BBC Hereford & Worcester, BBC Radio Gloucester, Evesham Journal and the Gloucester Echo all came and took even more photographs and interviewed us all for broadcasting this morning and for publication in the next editions.
Well done to Linda, Kim and Pam, for all their hard work (along with the rest of the ladies of the WI) in coming up with the ideas, the props, the venue and most of all the camaraderie as a result of this great experience! It was a privilege to be involved and all proceeds from the sale of this calendar will be shared between St Richards Hospice and Guide Posts charities.
