Climate Change Conference

Had a fascinating week photographing the International Parliamentary Conference on Climate Change. The evidence for Climate Change is overwhelming and all the actions we can take to reduce CO2 emissions are hugely important.

The top picture shows the delegates in Westminster Hall. Below that is James Smith, Chairman of Shell UK; Chris Huhne MP, Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change; Lord Adair Turner, Chair of the Climate Change Committee and Mr Speaker, chairing a debate amongst the delegates.

David P MacDonald

I’m delighted that I’ll be working closely with a new mentor for the next 12 months. David P MacDonald is one of the UK’s very top wedding and portrait photographers. He has won over 150 awards and is the only photographer to have photographed the Beckham’s children in their home. David is also on the judging panel of the Master Photographers Association. In addition I'll still be working very closely with all the talented people at Barrett & Coe.
