PETE CRANSTON

Pete Cranston is a Bristol based photographer providing quality, beautiful images for families and weddings. He takes great pride in doing something different from the usual studio sessions. He spends his time with you in a comfortable environment to get natural, timeless photos. 

Pete Cranston creates photographic work that stands up to the test of time and changing fashions. Gone are the days of the static pose and cheesy grins. Now we are all about being natural. Pete wants to look back on the photos of his family and have it bring a smile to his face, and make him think about the fun he had. But he also wants the images to not look dated by the style they were shot in. 

Pete will be exhibiting for the first time at the Orangery and will have examples of his work on display. He will also be selling gift vouchers for a variety of family portrait sessions. A beautiful, lasting gift.

PRETTY NOSTALGIC MAGAZINE

Pretty Nostalgic magazine is an independent bi-monthly vintage lifestyle magazine that celebrates nostalgic and sustainable ways of living. We passionately support independent British makers and love seeking out unique, eclectic homes and meeting people who love life and live by their own rules. The magazine is packed with inspiration to help make your house a home, to fill your kitchen with homegrown and foraged food, to inspire you to reuse and upcycle and to make every day an adventure. It is a handbook for creative, curious and resourceful folk who yearn for a simple, stylish and sustainable lifestyle.

We're particularly proud of our Christmas issue, especially our hand-stitched cover made entirely from leftover vintage fabrics. But mainly, we've really enjoyed getting to the root of what Christmas means, focusing on our motto: spend wisely, waste less, appreciate more. Spending wisely is all about supporting local makers; wasting less celebrates thrift: making wreaths from hedgerow finds, creating a foraged centrepiece and collecting vintage baubles. Appreciating more is all about celebrating life's simple pleasures: comforting winter grub, mulled wine and filling your pockets with shells. 

Editor Jo is over the moon to be attending Christmas at the Orangery (she's been locked up in an office working on the new magazine for far too long now!) and will be bringing along a stash of limited edition Pretty Nostalgic goody bags (get there early!) and an exclusive subscription offer especially for visitors to the fair.

LAHLOO TEA

Kate Gover used to hate tea with a passion. That was until she tasted a Japanese green tea produced by farmers on a tiny estate. She fell in love with the complex taste and a new and exciting world opened up in front of her. That one extraordinary cup inspired Kate to start Lahloo and it would be hard to find somebody more passionate about tea.

This dynamic new company offers tea drinkers a boutique collection of loose-leaf tea from some of the world’s finest small tea gardens. With a little help from two expert importers, Lahloo brings you fairly traded, organic tea direct from small artisan producers.

These distinctive teas are a world away from the faceless, mass-produced tea produced in huge factories. This is hand-picked tea with character, flavour, provenance, and, like Kate and Lahloo, each one has its own fascinating story to tell.

Lahloo, the name of the iconic 19th century tea clipper Kate Gover's great great grandfather sailed. 

As well as Lahloo Pantry running the cafe area throughout the day, they will also be selling a range of tea accessories, which all make perfect Christmas gifts.
