Bespoke Vintage

Picture the scene… It’s 1956 and a couple of years ago you converted your Hercules bicycle with a new Power-Pak clip-on engine.
You’re proud of the conversion and asked a local photographer to take a few pictures.
He came round and took a roll of film, and the results look great in black and white; just right for the period.

You bought an enlargement of your favourite picture – there it is – and also a framed print containing several small pictures – which you can see below – and a gorgeous photo book.
It really shows off the cyclemotor that you’re so proud of.
Did that happen in 1956? No, probably not, but it could today… if you’ve got a classic car, motorbike, tractor, caravan, steam engine, stationary engine, scooter, bicycle, or an old workshop, outbuilding, stable block, farmyard.
If you have, and would like it immortalised in black-and-white, using a period camera, loaded with a classic 35mm film, hand-developed and printed with utmost care I can do it for you.
See below for examples, and see here for guide prices.
