Wakefield commercial photographer: For the last few years at Christmas time I have been commissioned to shoot MK Illuminations’ lighting installations up and down the country at various malls and theme parks and this year is no exception. I kicked off the project with a visit to The Clevland Centre in Middlesborough, a small but bustling centre and a new venue for MK. All the illuminations at this venue are inside and there is no natural light which is a real challenge as the Christmas lights are tungsten or LED and have a different colour temperature to the fluorescent lighting in the mall and this plays havoc with the white balance. Additionally, the brightly lit walkways in the mall overpower the Christmas lights to a greater extent but in the end, I think the photos captured the spectacular lighting. Here is a small montage.
