About the Photographer .
. . Peter Slade has lived in the village since 1990 and is a
Quantity Surveyor with an international company of Consulting Engineers.
He is a member of the Royal Photographic Society and was awarded his
Associateship for a portfolio of Ballet and Contemporary Dance photographs, in which he
specialised whilst living in Wales.
The photographs in this exhibition are in the photographers
preferred style of environmental or location portraiture. This
style of portraiture shows the subject in a more natural and relaxed setting than is
usually achieved in the formal atmosphere of the photographic studio. In the context of
this set of photographs, such a style is ideally suited to achieving a cohesive
presentation of the theme.
