We don't celebrate Thanksgiving in New Zealand, but I wish we did. After all Kiwi kids have taken Halloween to heart. What a fantastic opportunity to stop, reflect, and express gratitude to those who share in our lives. So from the other end of the earth we want to express our gratitude to our clients, readers, suppliers and all the people round the world who own a Queensberry album. Thank you for your support, your friendship, your love and your commitment. Queensberry wouldn't be what it is without you. We never forget that, and we're truly thankful. Cheers from everyone, Nigel To View More >>

On holiday recently he went shopping with a friend and suddenly To View More >>

Louise's dress was made by Louise Anderson of Christchurch (no relation!) with fabric brought back by the bride from a shopping trip in Italy. With that exception the groom was an equal opportunity wedding planner. The wedding was photographed by New Zealand’s 2006 Wedding Photographer of the Year Jo Grams, of Moda Fotografica .

On my trip to the UK I had the opportunity to visit the studio of Alan and Jackie Rankine. Their work is aimed at a high end market. Their sales are substantial.

They don't chase To View More >>
