St-St- Studio Live!

And so it was... Last weekend saw the official launch of the new studio for Steve Gerrard Photography and we invited friends & family and clients past & potentially future down for a glass of champers, a look-see and a friendly chinwag. Thanks to everyone who came down to help us celebrate, especially my mom & dad who surprised me by turning up when I thought they were home in Spain! The lengths they'll go to for a free drink never ceases to amaze me...



So here it is... The new studio! Still some tweaks to add but it's looking pretty good already I think..







Evelyne has obviously been a MASSIVE help making the studio look so good. I don't know what I'd do without her. She really is the BEST!



This man helped a lot too.. Thanks Lee.



The legend that is Chris Unitt..





This is where I'm sat right now...



Following the launch we headed out to celebrate my 40th (!) birthday. My birthday was actually May 10th but, as I had a wedding that day, we decided to have a double celebration on the 4th. First we went for an amazing dinner at Cielo. Seriously, if you live anywhere near Birmingham and you like Italian food, make a point of trying it out. The staff there looked after all 22 of us brilliantly and even went to the effort of making a great cake!




Good food, good company and more champagne.. What else d'ya need?





I'll be shooting Steve & Steph's wedding in NEW YORK in December...



Lisa & Roland master the cheesy linked-arms drinking pose..



Tony in rare "Devil Horns" pose...



My nephew Miles gets my brother Paul with the "rabbit ears"!



Rosie drove up from London just to be there. What a star!



Thanks again to everyone who made it out to help us celebrate. We had a great day. Thanks also to Emily & Stef for looking after Elliott for us.

Cheers!
