Hey
Myself and a guy called Josh Harris have just opened PureWight.org.
We're an Isle of Wight based photography company.
Feel free to check out our portfolio, it doesn't get updated as reguarly as our Flickr so it may be best to check that out instead...

Our competitor, BrightWightImages seems to be getting jealous too.
Mr. or whatever it is Toogood lost himself an event when he emailed the managers after finding that we were covering the same event. His jealousy lost him the event, and we still have it. Hahah.
In regards to the template being the same as his, it was paid for and used by Josh and Darren kept it, some of Josh's images can still be viewed on Darren's server and his name in the HTML code of his site, which has been reported to his hosts.
He seems to like childish games, saying our images are crap, etc. To make himself feel better about his photography and he can't seem to handle that we're already covering more events than him.
I'm also in contact with at least 15 local photographers, some very well respected that seem to like my photography...
All of the photography that's on there currently has been taken by me, as Josh hasn't been online.
We've also had T-Shirts printed with our company and website on the back. Black T-Shirts and white text.
We're looking to buy some jackets and polos too, for when the colder weather comes.
Anyway...
Feel free to comment and give us tips and advice. We'd love to hear what you think.
Oh, I forgot to mention! We've also been offered the chance to use a studio on the island and they'll lend us all the equipment needed!
Basically, our aim is to prove that you can take decent photographs with ANY camera.
I currently have a Fujifilm Finepix S9600, and am planning to upgrade in the near future.
So, yeah, as I said. Any criticism is welcome. Tips and advice would be great.
Note:
