Fame Without Flowers

I wanted to begin by briefly mentioning how saddened I was to hear of the untimely death of cricketer Tom Maynard, my sincere sympathies are with his family at this time.
It is always paramount to consider the feelings of every family when they are faced with a bereavement.
I understand this very well, particularly as I have experienced great loss within my own family and with many dear friends.

On Wednesday 20 June I travelled to Wembley Park station with the hope of taking Funeographs of some beautiful floral tributes for Tom. I'm not a reporter with the aim of putting a heart wrenching story out there in the form of a blog. Funeography is not carried out in the way paparazzi coverage is so often, with little thought for the families.
I took some images of the front of the train station but I chose not to add it to this blog.

I have a real love and passion for Funeography and really want it to be understood. Me and some of my like minded colleagues who also appreciate and understand the value of this kind really need the public, society to look at it. There is still much confusion and some fear around Funeography and so..... the time has come for me to expand even further on the Funeography archives and also to clarify the booking process, how we work etc. As from July 2012 Funeography will be on offer for half price for a period of 6 months... New Price £350.00 This will also mean that I will be using some of the carefully selected Funeographs for artistic, promotional purposes. 

Take advantage of this and give your family or friends the chance to have a precious memory and legacy for generations to come. Use your money with the choices that you really like rather than the ones you have to adhere to. It's your money, your loved ones, your choice. 

I dedicate this blog to Tom Maynard.
