Today , I’m off to take pictures of the men in GB&G take on London Welsh in the Aviva Premiership… A home semi-final is at stake so it should be a belter of a game! And I’ll be taking some pics of the walkers completing their walks for Saints with Heart #redhatontour

It’s been a long time and a lot has happened…
My first rugby weekend off since January 2013 finds me in my eyrie patting about with my camera gear, tidying up my website and at long last getting behind the keyboard and posting on my blog.
Saints rollercoaster visits heartbreak at Gloucester and joy against Sale Sharks
Some things never change – as a Saints supporter I am well used to trauma. The drop goal at Thomond Park; the red card at HQ; the driving maul at the Twickenham Stoop; the last gasp try at Welford Road as Geordan Murphy pushed Ben Foden over and of course, the Tuilagi punch that didn’t…
My first summer with Newham & Essex Beagles ends as the new rugby season begins
It’s been a wonderful summer and I have thoroughly enjoyed myself working with the team at Newham & Essex Beagles AC. It’s been a new photography challenge as I really did have no idea what I was doing when I started in the dark days of winter. Shooting cross country still remains an enigma to…
Planning for the new season begins and a new RedHatPhoto service is launched
I often get asked if I do this gig for a living – I don’t and never want to. I do want to raise loads of money for Restart but if this ever turned into a job, I’d give it up tomorrow. I still have my season ticket, paid for by me, just in case…

This trip to Twickenham has been a long time coming – it’s been a long journey since that fateful day when Bruce Reihana spoke to the Saints supporters after Saints had been relegated to Division 1. We’ve been through great highs and horrible lows – even this season we have had a bumpy ride. Things…
Saints march to Allianz Park for the Aviva Premiership semi…
Semi-final day beckons and a first trip to Saracens’ new home, Allianz Park. I have no idea what to expect except those who have been there tell me that it’s a work in progress. Saints and their supporters arrive full of hope as usual and it should be a great game. Saracens are beatable as…
The run in starts now… Saints path to glory begins with a trip to the Stoop
The sun is at last shining and the last game of the regular season beckons. Saints know what they have to do to win the Premiership – it’s a simple matter of beating all of the top three. Today just decides which order they will play them. Jim Mallinder is not messing about – he’s…
Northampton Saints Open Day – a grand time had by all
On Saturday, Northampton Saints flung open its doors to all and a grand time was had. I was lucky enough to spend the day with my cameras capturing events – the gallery is here. Should you wish to buy photos from the day, please make a donation of at least £5 and I will send…
Saints drive past Wasps – time for the East Midlands derby…
Adams Park is not a ground I enjoy going to – the strange separation between home and away supporters in the bars, the number of times I have seen Saints lose there and the terrible logistics of getting into the ground – all make it an unpleasant experience. But last week had to be done…
It’s not over…
The hash tag ‘itsnotover’ has become the new mantra of Northampton Saints and if the lads keep playing the way they did on Saturday anything really is possible. It’s been a roller coaster few weeks for the club – the board, coaches, players and supporters have done some soul searching, some talking and for once…
It’s been a while and the Saints roller coaster is travelling at maximum speed!
Where to start? Well first off I suppose I owe anybody who reads this blog an apology. I have no excuse for my failure to write – it was my laziness, tiredness and an unwillingness to write that stopped me. This Saints’ season has been a classic Saints roller coaster ride which I am sure…
