Featured Nottingham Creative for The Creative Quarter.

Featured Nottingham Creative – for The Creative Quarter.

Thank you to the Nottingham Creative Quarter for featuring us in their weekly newsletter/online in their ‘Featured Business’ section.

I enjoyed answering a few questions regarding the business, other businesses and Nottingham in general.

It’s nice to get questions and then to really think about how you should answer. It was nice to mention some friends and fellow creatives that I have worked with and that have helped me – Olivia Aspinall and Joff and Ollie have been really big helps to us and good friends as well. It’s also nice to talk about where we go in Nottingham for food and drinks.

The new photos

All the new photos are complete. After the shoot day, James Gardiner spent some time in post production giving them a final sprinkle of magic dust.

We are very happy with them and feel they have already really enhanced the look of the website. We really thought it was very important for the people viewing the website to see our products at their very best. These new images certainly do done that. The customer can now, not only view the lamps in a beautiful ul environment but are also able to see the sort of detail we were hitherto unable to deliver.

Thanks again also to Jonathan Casciani - Joff at lanebypost.com for all his help and Primary - http://www.weareprimary.org/

Enjoy the photographs

Photo shoot

Mark Lowe Lighting Photo Shoot behind the scenes

We had a busy weekend last weekend doing our first full and professional photo shoot. We had booked James Gardiner (http://jamesgardiner.co.uk) who I had met before and does a lot of work for Lane (https://www.lanebypost.com) based at the Primary in Nottingham.

I popped over on Friday afternoon to get some of the setting up done and then Saturday was a full on 10 hours pretty much non-stop. We had made a plan and managed to get everything done. We did loads of combinations on a white background and and then moved onto the ‘lifestyle’ shots. We did 4 different ‘styles’ for the different lamps.

We’re really looking forward to seeing the final shots. Watch this space……

Trip to London with Lane (Lanebypost.com)

Top Drawer Trade Fair, London

I enjoyed a day in London yesterday with Joff, Ollie and Rosie from Lane (lanebypost.com). I have been doing some work with them in the last 6 months and so it was interesting to join them. The main reason for the journey was to visit the Top Drawer Trade Fair to get some ideas for possible products to add to the current Lane shop. We also visited G F Smith's (paper manufacturers) 'shop' in the west end and had a long tube ride to Epping where we visited The London Clothe Company. The was very interesting as they weave beautiful cloth on old looms.
