Phew what a weekend!

I don't think we have sat still for longer than 10 minutes since Saturday morning.

We have had a very busy weekend....

Saturday morning was a little surreal - we were asked by Nara Taylor Queen of the Night and her partner Pete to photograph them and their vintage dentist chair.

After putting our creative thinking caps on we decided for a backstreet in Birmingham, somewhere a little urban, edgy and somewhere a little out of the way.

After helping Pete unload the dentist chair from the camper van, we set photographing Nara in the chair whilst Pete dug out his rather scary looking dentistry tools.

We moved on to another part of the road where we set the chair up in the middle of the street - we took some really quite stunning images - the traffic warden was a little bemused by the whole situation!

Steve has already started to work on editing the shots however we couldn't resist putting this one up. Its had the HDR effect to give it some umph - its almost 'one flew over the cuckoo nest' kinda image.

Saturday afternoon was party time.....a birthday girl and her friends came to TipTop Towers to celebrate in style. A model for the day, spoilt, pampered, showered with gifts...what better way to celebrate your 16th birthday.

The girls had 3 different changes of outfits, party frocks, pyjama's and casuals. The wore http://www.annabelleswigs.co.uk/ along with feather boa's and hats; they had a pillow fight, cuddle time with their favorite teddy bears and of course sang happy birthday with the TipTop Birthday Cake.

Photoshoot parties are a perfect way to celebrate - whether its a child's birthday , a girls night in, a hen party or just for fun - why not come to the TipTop Photography Studio for some serious fun.

This is the girls having a great time !!

Sunday morning was another early start! This time to the camera show at Wolverhampton Race Course where we enjoyed breakfast and a lot of bargains. Steve picked up two great camera bags- one for our travelling expeditions and the other for taking equipment to corporate events.

Me (Deb) on the other hand spent my pennies on books. I just adore collecting photography books, either research or just pure art. Today I picked up a signed Lord Snowdon book, a vintage style photography book and a book showing the trends of underwear through the decades. It wasn't until I sat down for breakfast and looked at my purchases that I realised the underwear book showed a little more than I had been expecting. To say I blushed was an understatement. The book will sit in the studio library, with a sticker on the front saying 'adults only'. he he...its not that bad I promise :-0

This afternoon we have had the delightful and very gorgeous Miss Suzie Sequin in the studio - Suzie contacted us and asked us to photograph her wearing a selection of products she had been sent to model from various companies.

Suzie modelled wigs from http://www.annabelleswigs.co.uk/ and http://www.wonderlandwigs.co.uk/ along with accessories from various other companies. Suzie is a total darling and is just wonderful to photograph. Suzie has modelled for http://www.tiptop-photography.com/ for over two years and is dear friend of the studio.

This is Suzie in action:

So....its now late Sunday evening.... we are closing down the computers for the evening and we go to bed looking forward to the week ahead.

Adios for now.
