Katrina and Warren Williams are Auckland-based Williams Photography - and as if that's not enough, Katrina also works part time for Queensberry to support our UK and European professional clients. A few weeks ago Katrina recorded this little video to introduce our Starter Kit to professionals (it's also on our website). She does that very nicely, but what I find really compelling about the video is how she says Queensberry has transformed their business. Thank you Katrina, for being such a good customer and ambassador! We're lucky to have you. Cheers, Ian To View More >>

We often get asked how Queensberry started. Well, I came home from university one day to find Heather had bought a set of of leather-working tools so she could make a handbag for her mother! I never imagined it would be the start of a business that's been growing for more than forty years. It's literally in her blood. Her great-grandfather produced opera and made saddles as a hobby (she cried when she discovered that). Her grandfather was head designer at Selfridges. Her father, her brother, her uncles and aunts are, or were, all involved in painting, drawing, sculpture, ceramics, wood and metal To View More >>

Prompted by constant requests for advice by new and aspiring photographers,US portrait photographer Cheryl Jacobs Nicolai wrote an article called, "What every aspiring photographer should know". I liked: Style is a voice, not a prop or an action. If you can buy it, borrow it, download it, or steal it, it is not a style. Don't look outward for your style; look inward. Learn that people photography is about people, not about photography. Great portraits are a side effect of a strong human connection. Read the full article here - noticed in GRINZ. Cheers, Nigel PS Be sure to check out Cheryl's portrait To View More >>

We initially came across these two albums by UK photographer Binky Nixon via a comment one of her brides left on our Facebook page... Bride and groom Wani and Ayo had a strong red colour theme through their wedding so decided to go for classic cherry leather for their cover.... And Gemma and Matt went for an old favorite Contemporary leather in the Earth shade. Click here to see more of Binky's work on her blog. Cheers, Nigel To View More >>

New Zealand photographer Bianca Duimel set up this sample portrait album to feature some of her best work... She took these photos of expecting parents Tony and Sharon just one week before their little baby boy was born. Bianca say this golden haired angel took her breath away. Three-year-old Holly obviously isn't scared of bees! And Pippa was let loose to run around outside in the sun while Bianca got these shots. Thanks for sharing, Bianca :) To view a slideshow of Bianca's sample album click here. Cheers, Nigel To View More >>
