Aerial House Portrait for Hello Magazine

Aerial House Portrait for Hello Magazine

Hello Magazine Aerial House Portraits

We were delighted to be hired by Hello Magazine Italy for a shoot and article they were developing of James & Fitri Hay at their famous house Birch Grove House in Horsted Keynes, West Sussex. Our role was to provide the aerial photography of the stunning house and grounds of Birch Grove House.  Whilst creating aerial house portraits is certainly nothing new to us, this particular property was certainly more than a little bit special. It was definitely the first time we’ve been asked to include the helicopter that the occupants flew in on!

Photography of Birch Grove House
Birch Grove House is a country house dating from 1926. It was the family home of the British prime minister Harold Macmillan, Earl of Stockton, who died there in 1986. It has had many famous guests over its’s history – during Macmillan’s time alone, Charles De Gaulle, Dwight D. Eisenhower, Nikita Khrushchev, Jawaharlal Nehru and John F. Kennedy all spent time there. The house is now owned by the Scottish entrepreneur James Hay. Birch Grove is a Grade II listed building.

Italian Hello Magazine had commissioned the article in order to showcase this incredible property and the family that owns it.  Along with the external images, including capture of the private golf course, the stunning interiors were also featured to showcase the incredible design that has been lavished upon them.

In 2011 Birch Grove House was purchased by the Scottish born entrepreneur James Hay and his wife Fitri.  He is the Chairman of Dubai-based JMH Group – a private family business operating in the construction and high end luxury goods markets. Mr Hay once a senior executive at BP, also has extensive interests in horse racing. Together with his wife they pursue many philanthropic and racing activities, hunting, shooting, fishing, golf, rugby and football and travel extensively.

Why Should Solar Panels be Professionally Maintained?

Why Should Solar Panels be Professionally Maintained? Over the years, panels can suffer faults that remain invisible to the naked eye but which impact their efficiency in terms of generating power. In serious situations these faults can even lead to a fire hazard. So it’s really important to keep up with the maintenance on your panels to keep your installation safe and also to make sure you are making the most of your investment. Obviously, the problem with regular and specialist inspection of your panels is that they are most likely to be in inaccessible areas of your home such as your roof. Having an actual human being up there to manually test each panel can be costly due to the health and safety precautions they have to take and potentially equipment they have to hire in order to gain access, plus you run the risk of damage to your roof structure during the inspection process. However, there is a simple and non-invasive solution that reduces inspection costs and means that if you d...

Solar Panel Faults - Common Types and Causes

Solar panels are a popular and efficient source of renewable energy that can last for decades. However, like any other technology, they are not immune to faults. Identifying and fixing faults in solar panels is essential to ensure their long-term functionality. In this article, we will explore the common types of solar panel faults, their causes, and how to prevent them. Solar Panel Faults: Common Types Hot Spots A hot spot is a concentrated area of high temperature on a solar panel, usually across a single cell. It occurs when a section of the panel fails to convert solar energy into electricity and instead absorbs it, causing heating. Hot spots can lead to panel damage, reduce efficiency, and in extreme cases, potentially start a fire. PID (Potential Induced Degradation) PID is an electrical phenomenon that causes a significant drop in the output power of a solar module panel. It occurs when a voltage difference develops between the solar cells and the grounded frame, leading to a le...

The Crucial Role of Diodes in Solar Panels

Enhancing Energy Conversion and Preventing Damage: The Importance of Diodes in Solar Panels Solar panels are becoming an increasingly popular choice for generating clean and renewable energy. However, to ensure optimal energy conversion and efficient performance, it is crucial to understand the role of diodes in solar panels and the importance of detecting faults through thermal imaging. Diodes are semiconductor devices that allow the flow of current in one direction while blocking it in the opposite direction. In solar panels, diodes are essential for several reasons. Primarily, they prevent reverse current flow, ensuring that the energy generated by the solar cells is not wasted or lost. Without diodes, shaded or defective cells could draw current from the remaining functional cells, causing a significant drop in overall panel efficiency.
