I began my wedding career and photographing people with Putmans Photographers.
Pete & Dave gave me the best training I could wish for at that time with them being the best photographers in the region. I was here for around 12 years.

Here I also gained essential wedding experience and also the art of dealing with people in a
friendly yet professional way.

You can contact Pete for any Old Walton pictures and restoration work on your treasured old photographs Putmans Site

I qualified with at the time The BIPP & MPA in 1991 gaining the Licentiate grade.
In 1993 I won a major Fuji wedding award with over
1200 entry's from all over the UK.

Colin Leonard Photography was then created in 1999

At this point I qualified with The SWPP at the Licentiate grade.

In 2002 with the SWPP, I achieved highly commended in the wedding category.

I regularly attend SWPP & other photography seminars and workshops to keep up to
date with today's market and new trends in photography and have
been working in Photoshop on a daily basis.
Today's weddings are alot more creative & involved than what they used to be.

My first interests in photography was with the Clacton Camera club just after leaving school.
I then studied at Barking College in 1986 gaining C&G distinctions in Photography and Design.
