Last Sunday I photographed my niece and nephew, I wanted the images to ooze their personalities and the close bond they share together. All the shots were taken using my portable studio it's amazing the results you can achieve with little space.
I even managed to apply some of my trademark toning techniques to some of the shots, I hope you enjoy this selection and feel free to leave a comment if you do....
Have a great weekend!!!!!
Again another one of my favourite shoots having a 2012 make over. I absolute love how this has turned out, the shoot took place along London's Southbank - a great area to photograph.
You may recognise image 13 as I used this previously as my journal header.
I'll let the images speak for themselves, I hope you enjoy them.
As I mentioned previously I've been going through some of my old shoots and re-editing them to co-inside with my latest post processing techniques.
This shoot is approx 3 to 4 years old and it was the first time I had ever shot lingerie, it shot at home back in the day before I owned the Lastolite Hi-lite background. I ended up using a white cloth background in the dining room held together with cloth pegs to capture the "studio" style shots.
I've never been that keen on shooting in a studio environment there's just something about location shooting that I love and the challenges it can bring. The outdoor shots were all taken in the woods near my house, we found this great tree trunk that had been cut down and decided to use it as the prop (as you can see :).
Looking back now I wish I had taken more variations of this location but I remember at the time I was so concentrating on the lighting that I just got carried away....
I have never used any of these images until today they have sat gathering dust on my harddrives, that's the thing with digital photography if your not careful images just get lost on drives.
Anyway I really hope you enjoy viewing them. All shots were lit using nikon speedlights shot through umbrellas and a ezybox softbox, daylight and captured on my nikon D200 camera....
9 days after their amazing wedding at Cameron House (click here to view) Jodi & Jon had their wedding reception for all their friends and family at the Langdon Hills Golf Club. It was a great idea because it meant the excitement of the wedding was extended that little bit further, all the ladies were rocking their outfits the gents were looking really cool and the party was a great night I even joined in late in the evening all thanks to Geoff who shot the last few images :)
This has been an amazing journey for me and it's been such an honour that they chose me as their photographer, I gave you both my absolute all and I believe we have created such a beautiful keepsake that you'll cherish forever.

Finally their wedding day had arrived, I had been looking forward to this for what seemed an eternity.... The dinner suit had been hired the camera kit prepared and the wedding day was upon me, with hindsight I should of tried on the dinner suit before the wedding day to make sure it fitted well, to my disappointment I'd given the hire company the wrong neck measurements to say it was a little snug on the old adams apple was an understatement, once I got used to the feeling of being strangled I was all good to go....
Their wedding had to be one of the hottest days of the year and to say I was a little warm was an understatement haha, anyway my problems aside the day was truly amazing.... Every part of the hotel is a photo opportunity, if I ever win the lottery I will definitely be hiring the place for a future photoshoot :)
Weddings like Emma and Scott's makes me love this industry so much, it's a great honour to be given the responsibility to capture the imagery that will last for generations of their future families, pushing myself and working as hard as possible makes all worthwhile when you exceed your clients expectations. Their slideshow is the biggest I've ever created for a wedding and I believe it captures their wedding perfectly, oozing the love, emotion and style that was in abundance on the day.....
The highlight for me was their first dance as they had some great rhythm on the dance floor I can't wait to see the video, it was like a movie scene, their first dance was to Al Green's "Let's Stay Together" an absolute classic and it had all the smoothness of a Tarantino movie.... I had to keep reminding myself to shoot as I was enjoying it so much, it's definitely gave me ideas for my first dance if I ever get married haha...
I really hope you love viewing the images and slideshow below as much as I've loved creating them and If you haven't seen Emma and Scott's Pre-Wedding shoot then you can do so by clicking here.
I look forward to hearing all your thoughts....
Have a great day.....
