Apologies for the lack of updates recently, its been very busy here! Firstly, if you are looking to have a family portrait photograph taken in the very near future, we are participating in a special offer which is done in conjunction with the Mail on Sunday and the Master Photographers Association. For full details, make sure...
Ahhhhhhh. Can’t wait to see the others! Thanks David.
Shown above is the lovely Grace(4) who came in as part of our Kodak Portrait Awards promotion, which has proved to be extremely popular. This is not the shot of Grace I’ll be entering – I’m keeping that one under wraps for the time-being. Grace was a very bubbly little girl and not shy at all. She...
Some images from two shoots I’ve done in the last couple of days. First up is Emily. Her red hair just looks amazing against that green background. She was very patient as I had to spend a fair amount of time with trying to get my wind machine to blow her hair properly! secondly, we have a tryptych of lovely...

Oh my word David……You are a creative genius
Mataya is my niece ans you have shown her to be more beautiful in a picture than she is in real life!!! How can this be?
Well done on your fantastic work
David I love the Pic of Mataya.
You always know how to bring out the beauty, closeness and the concept of the picture.
You will always be my favourite photographer.
Every one loves the A0 size photo of my son and 1 in my front room. ” mother and soulchild”. Its the best natural pic any one has done.
Only YOU David.
It has come to my attention that the number people visiting my website has rocketed in recent days. In the last 48 hours, my site has had over 50,000 hits. 9000 of those were people searching for ‘David Calvert’. Naturally I was curious to find out why and on further investigation, I discovered to my horror that it...

Hi David, Well I am speechless (and let’s face it that doesn’t happen very often!) I hope that this all blows over for you soon and the stress levels dissipate. We all know you’re great. Cristina
I want to “third” Lisa.
David is a lovely,decent person with a great talent.
Its not acceptable that he has in anyway been sucked into this and i hope that steps are taken to get this sorted out.
Best wishes to you David.

I will second Lisa, David has been a friend for many years, and is fantastic photographer, a decent man, and has nothing to do with this mess. I hope people realize how much distress can be caused by making comments without knowing the full facts. Also David is almost 20 years older than the man in question. David, I hope it all gets sorted! take care, Maria x
Just want to let everyone reading this know that David Calvert is one of the best children’s Photographers I know in the UK . A shining example of what a professional photographer should be. David, so sorry your name has got mixed up in this story.
Take care

David, heard the interview on radio 2 with Jeremy Vine today. Best wishes for you and your family…. Great Pics too. Hopefully you will get some orders from people visiting your website. x
David – I’ve just heard you talking to Jeremy Vine on Radio 2 (and previous to you, the other David Calvert, from Fleetwood). What a nightmare situation you find yourself in, purely down to your name, and some totally false, malicious rumours made up about the Fleetwood Mr. Calvert.
There are some truly stupid people that we have the misfortune to share our planet with.
Sadly for you, I don’t think the Government could release the correct name that John Venables is now using – if they did, then any other (innocent) man in the country with a name approximately close to it would then be persecuted (or worse).
The point that has to be stressed again & again is that John Venables (or whatever he’s called these days) is IN PRISON. Which is where he belongs…..
I have just heard you on the Jeremy Vine show – my husband is a professional photographer too so I have a lot of empathy for your situation! sorry you’ve had this experience, hope the fuss dies down soon and you can get on doing what you do. Wishing you all the best for your business, and hoping that if people end up on your site out of curiosity, they take a look at your pics and make a booking!
Your work is outstanding, you have made those kids look almost as lovely as mine.
Take care x
Just listening to the radio. Best wishes…Much support! Great Photography!
Sorry to hear that you have been unfairly implicated, but well done on an impressive portfolio.
Dear David,
I feel so sad to hear that you have been caught up in relation to the awful business surrounding poor little Jamie Bulger. Your name is being brought into disrepute with this unfortunate incorrect naming.
I have known you for many years, throughout that time your work ethic and professionalism has been beyond reproach. I understand that the offending comments have been deleted.
I hope you consider legal action on any person or host company that tries to associate you in any way.

It’s very unfortunate that you have been wrongly linked to this horrible murder case when of course you are NOTHING to do with it.
Dear sir
Like several thousand other people I searched the name David Calvert and I ended up at your name just a note to say I feel for your predicament and hopefully the people who are passing on the text will stop it as innocent people are being sucked in to this vortex and I wish you and your family all the best through this difficult times.
Kind Regards
