Photos from One Park West Show Apartments – a sneak preview.
Described as being the “jewel in the duke’s crown” the final phase of Liverpool One is being implemented. These are the One Park West 17 storey apartments overlooking the Mersey River. I was there for the grand opening by the Duke of Westminster a few months back. Now the apartments are on the market and [...]
Some photos from the recent Barclays branch opening – Hull.
One of the things i’m lovin about photography here in the North West is it’s taking me to a few new places I might not otherwise see. Hull for example. Barclays have recently opened a new branch here, located centrally in the town square. Here’s a few photos of the people that both make up [...]
Liverpool Chamber of Commerce – photos from the platform lunch…

Next event will be when the tennis comes to town. To check out more event photographs please click here: [...]
A Photo from New Zealand…
Think i’m over the jet-lag now, so with a bit of luck the blog will start to roll again. Here’s one of my favourite shots from my recent trip back home to New Zealand. Taken at sunrise on a beach north of where I grew up – I guess it’s the subtle moody tones of [...]

HOT models night at Chaya…
Hmmmmmmmm scorchin’ even… let’s not beat around the bush… The inaugural “red carpet” event took place on Thursday “slap bang” in the action district of Liverpool. Many pretty people adorned both the bar and the cat walk for an evening of ‘decadence delirium’ sure to please any self-respecting young, hip, wannabe “be-seen-type” individual. The best [...]

The Panoramic bar up the top of the Beetham Tower is the perfect place for an evening cocktail. I was up there last week to grab some promotional photographs for them. The view is nothing short of incredible. To see more shots of the bar and the view – click here panoramic bar liverpool To [...]
The Mystery Tipper Hits Liverpool
Coming from a marketing background – I always appreciate a good campaign – and this one was a cracker! Red C Marketing from Manchester came up with the mystery tipper campaign to incentivise taxi drivers who wore their sticker on their cabs. And today a lucky Liverpool cabbie’s ship came in. After the cheque was [...]

It’s all about the networking…
Having photographed quite a few networking events recently – it’s interesting to note their increasing popularity. There was a great turn out at the most recent “striding out” event at the Mandarin restaurant, Victoria street. Perhaps it was due to the quality of speakers present. The theme was “trends for 2009 and how these will [...]
Snow on the rooftops of Liverpool…
One of the bonuses of living in the top floor of an apartment is that you can look out the window and immediately see Liverpool from a fresh new angle… you can then poke your camera out the window and take a photograph! So when it was icy cold yesterday morning… that’s what I did. [...]
Lightworks Photography Studio in Static
Have been busy painting the new “Lightworks” photography studio in Liverpool and had to endure an afternoon at Ikea yesterday buying some funky furniture. Dubbed “the Lightworks” it will be taking the collective space of Ant Clausen Photography and Deana Clarke Photography to a new level with a permanent studio set-up and client meeting area. [...]
The Bloggers Block..
An interesting theory – what happens when a “blogger” gets a bit too busy and perhaps doesn’t have time to add the attention and detail needed to keep a blog ticking along. I imagine a similar occurrence when a writer gets writer’s block and they stop writing for a while until they find inspiration from [...]
Flaring Cocktails at Chameleon…
Back again to photograph the hottest new bar in Liverpool. This time the focus is on the cocktails. “Flaring” which is the bartending equivalent of juggling – was on display and definitely a challenge in low light. I opted to shoot with available light to show movement in the bottles/shakers etc and hope the bartenders [...]
2008 – ummm where did it go?
Another year snuck by… but I have to say 2008 has been a bit of a corker (Antipodean expression for bloody good!) Even though i’m a bit slow on the uptake, writing my 2008-retrospective blog in early Jan… but hey… i’ve been hangin in North Wales in a farm house in the middle of nowhere… [...]
A ramble round North Wales…
Jack Frost has come out to play in this recent series of photographs taken in North Wales. The first few are from Llyn Gwynant in Snowdonia. It was around 3pm and we knew we’d have to make the ‘ramble’ rather brisk to make it round the lake before dark. The second set are taken around [...]
