Graham Wiffen Photography: From Fish to Photos – 2011 Calendars
Graham Wiffen, Sales & Marketing Manager of the Hive Beach Café at Burton Bradstock, West Dorset has launched a new career, moving on from taking pictures of food or serving it to shooting the wonderful Dorset land and seascapes. One of his first big projects is a spectacular calendar for 2011 backed by Steve Attrill, owner of the award winning Hive. And with the 2012 Olympic sailing event on the doorstep Graham's planning for a bumper time.
Photography has been a lifelong hobby for Graham. “I’m now at a stage in my working life where I can enjoy being creative. So to have a project that brings together all the aspects that I’m passionate about is very satisfying.” He has travelled extensively, living in the Caribbean and Mediterranean, and feels that the scenery on our Dorset doorstep takes some beating. “Working at the Hive is like having the best photographic studio in the world. The colours and shapes in the surrounding countryside and Jurassic coastline, and the ever changing light, are a constant source of inspiration.” Graham uses a Nikon D90 camera with a variety of lenses including Nikon & Sigma, and using Lee Filters.
The calendars, available in the cafe and online, cost £4.95 and are perfect for Christmas gifts or for the pure joy of the pictures. All of the profits are being donated to the charity Julia’s House which supports Dorset children with life-threatening illnesses and their families by providing respite, fun and nursing care. Community Fund Raiser Di Pestell says, “We’re really pleased that The Hive is helping us once more. The money raised is much needed and appreciated by Julia’s House.”
