27/01/2012 Why Gareth Thomas should have won Celebrity Big Brother.

As some of you know, I was the photographer for the Crusaders Rugby League team last year which allowed me to work a bit with Gareth Thomas. For those who might not know him, Gareth’s international and club record in rugby union and Wales is very impressive to say the least.

But in 2009 when he revealed to the world that he was gay and intended to continue playing professional sport, his legend grew even bigger than anyone could have ever expected. Stonewall named him hero of the year, he was a guest at Prince William’s wedding to Kate Middleton, top shoe designer and good friend Christian Louboutin made a shoe for him Mickey Rourke is now making a biopic on Gareth’s life.

But the best thing about Gareth, which he shows on twitter and that you’ve all seen on Celebrity Big Brother, is that he’s simply an all-round good person. In the UK’s “Star System” where people are celebrities for no obvious reason, “Alfie” is a true role model when it comes to dedication in sport and demolishes every stereotype possible of how people see gay men. So many times I was left in awe in how much time he had for some of his fans and how despite his truly deserved admiration from legions of people in and outside of rugby circles, he’s always remained true to himself and to where he comes from. (Twitter fans will know how much he misses home when away!)

I think we’re all going to see a lot more of Gareth in the next couple of years and I think we’ll all be better for it.

See you soon “butt”!

Here are a few pictures we took last year of Gareth which I like. And of Christian Louboutin when he came to visit Gareth, simply because it was so surreal to be with him in Wrexham speaking French to each other!

04/12/2011 Sikander Malik – Moving on from Hollyoaks

I met Sikander Malik, aka Jamil of Hollyoaks during an interesting evening with Save the Family and I remember him saying at the time: “Nice meeting you! We should work together one day!”
Having worked with a few actors and athletes, it’s something I’ve heard many times before but it generally never comes to anything. So I politely replied: “Yeah sure! That would be great.” and forgot about it…

About 10-11 months later, I find him on twitter and he asks about the shoot again! Immediately I knew that he was someone of his word! So we met at New Brighton on the Wirral and shot until the local high school’s day finished and over-excited teens started turning up!

On behalf of Celynnen Photography, I would like to thank you for being a man of your word and we are all looking forward to seeing you in your new acting ventures!

This is what Sikander had to say about working with Celynnen Photography:

““Ioan Said is a brilliant photographer, with a keen eye to detail and a creative style which is flexible and adaptable to each and every situation. Whether that is a wedding, a social function, a modelling photo shoot session or other. He is a gentleman and his personal qualities as a person shine through his work, making it very easy to work with him – and he is always open to ideas and suggestions (always the sign of a knowledgeable and experienced photographer). I have worked with Ioan twice, once during a charity event where Ioan had been hired to shoot the event for the papers, and the second time recently for my own personal portfolio. As an actor and model, it is very important to me to be able to work with someone I feel comfortable with, and who I know will bring out the best in the final product. Ioan provides an excellent service – and is a lovely guy too! I recommend Ioan and Celynnen Photography to anyone if you not only want a fantastic final outcome, but also if you want to actually have fun during the shoot! Sikander Malik”September 22, 2011″

19/05/2011 Meet Coronation Street’s newest star: Charlie Shaw, Model and Actress!

Yesterday, I woke up and to my great surprise one of the pictures that we had taken was in The Sun! Under the eye catching title of “Corrie chiefs sign exotic dancer” Immediately I thought…that’s Charlie! In fact…that’s the picture Celynnen Photography took of Charlie!

After a quick chat with the BIPP‘s headquarters and the Sun’s picture desk, we were able to sort out this confusing situation in a matter of minutes! That service is just one of the reasons why I, as a professional, have decided to qualify with the BIPP. A bit more about that here.

But now, more about Charlene, or Charlie as everyone calls her! I first worked with her on a shoot on Valentine’s day a few years ago. It was great fun and, besides the great pictures we took that day, one of the things I remember from the shoot is her then boyfriend, who was sat in a corner playing Football Manager, would occasionally take a peak over his laptop and compliment her on her looks!

The session from which the pictures which are now across the web are from took place a couple of years ago when Charlie needed her model portfolio updated. It was a glorious sunny day in Chester and Charlie was her bubbly self. I say this because one of the most defining features from this (we hope) future TV Star is that she is always so happy, bubbly and always a great pleasure to work with! Pity the Sun chose the picture they did as I much prefer the following. The first one was actually part of our Qualification panel for the British Institute of Professional Photography!

DSC 8898 Edit Meet Coronation Streets newest star: Charlie Shaw, Model and Actress!One of the funniest things about this session is that the pictures were taken on top of a pub in Chester! We were both short of time and short of space and so a rooftop terrace by the Chester Town Hall was the only place we could see fit the for the job. Now, the Sun put in the title “Corrie signs Exotic dancer” because it’s a nice and catchy title. But you will soon find out how talented Charlie is as an actress TONIGHT on Coronation Street!

From fireplace to your own private patio, from the welcome Ian and Lynne offer to the gorgeous, modern rooms, Oakley B&B is definitely worth a visit!

03/12/2010 Celynnen Photography: For PR, Commercial and Product Photography!

You might have seen this image in Chester recently:

JAR Developments Final 847x1024 Celynnen Photography: For PR, Commercial and Product Photography!

It was used by an agency as part of a kitchen giveaway and was in the Chester Chronicle, phone boxes and on the buses!

It’s obviously an image that was very important for the client as they wanted to make sure it had the impact necessary. Another shoot we did recently was for a client referred to us by DeWinter Design, one Cheshire’s the leading agencies. Their client, Jolicloud, needed product pictures for the worldwide launch of their new computer: The Jolibook!

Jolicloud needed professional product pictures and gave Celynnen Photography a clear brief, allowing them to show their new computer based on the Jolicloud OS, in the best possible light.

28/11/2010 The CATS Awards, 10 years of Celebrating Cheshire’s Vibrant Tourism Industry

At Celynnen Photography, we are better known for our wedding photography, our family portrait photography and our Boudoir photography. Recently, we also became the official photographer for Bounty’s parenting club offering newborn portraits, the Wrexham Crusaders (watch this space!) and renewed our relationship with the Wrexham Symphony Orchestra and Save The Family. All this work doesn’t leave us much time for event photography. But last Thursday, I was able to capture one of my favourite events of all: the CATS Awards.

The Cheshire Awards for Tourism Skills, or CATS are a fantastic event that celebrates all the hard work done by the people in Cheshire’s vibrant tourism industry. The categories reward everyone from volunteers to up-and-coming chefs, unsung heros to people deemed to have most contributed to the visitor economy. This year’s event was hosted by Chef Simon Rimmer.

The people I got a chance to talk with that night and seeing how much the awards meant to them made it a fantastic night to work at and I would like to thank all the people at Visit Chester and Cheshire for organising it so well and, of course, for choosing Celynnen Photography! icon smile The CATS Awards, 10 years of Celebrating Cheshires Vibrant Tourism Industry

19/10/2010 Celynnen Photography, Pope Benedict’s Official Photographer during the UK Tour?

No. Not really.
In fact the funny thing is I was watching the Pope‘s tour and thought to myself: “That’d be a cool gig to put on your CV!” And then, at that particular moment, as the Pope walks off, I see FOUR guys with cameras, following him and walking in front of him in the stairs!! I thought: “That could have been ME!!” Anyways.. maybe the good folks at the Vatican’s Press Office (I’m sure they have one..) or any other religious representative (Dalai Lama, i’m here if you want a PR shoot!) or any other VIP and politicians…think about good old Ioan at Celynnen Photography next time you visit these beautiful and green isles!

On the other hand, I was asked by Bolland and Lowe to provide pictures of the beautiful Lutyens Crypt in the Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral. The Crypt, designed by Sir Edward Lutyens in 1930 is an absolutely beautiful place to visit, whatever your religious leanings (if any.) Gorgeous architecture and historic relics make this place a must-see for anybody visiting Liverpool. Of course, the Crypt is part of one of the most unique Cathedrals in the world with it’s circular shape. I could go on about it, but not being an architecture specialist myself, I’d probably just waffle a bit and prove my ignorance. So let’s let the pictures we took speak for themselves!
