Norfolk Brides/ A Most Curious Party

 Good evening!
I sincerely apologise for my silence on my blog over the last few weeks. I have been planning and shooting so many things that I cannot publish just yet, I haven't found time to dedicate to giving my blog the personal touch it is screaming for!

 Fortunately, I now have some fresh photographs to share with you. Last month, I had the wonderful opportunity to try something very new to me, and different to my usual; a bridal-themed promo shoot. I have only dabbled shooting wedding photography on one or two occasions before now, so I was very keen to try something that would help me consider how my work would appear from a more commercial perspective, and where my photography may fit in the future.
 For you non-local folk, Norfolk Brides and A Most Curious Party have a wedding fair coming up in October together, so this shoot was all about showcasing two brides/grooms that represented both of them. There was the highly-polished modern/contemporary bride, and the natural,earth-loving boho bride.

This was the largest team I have worked with by far, and a lot of responsibility on my shoulders to do them all proud, which I hope I have acheived!

Below I have posted some of the unpublished images, and you can view more over here at the article by Dalia of Norfolk Brides, shoot credits and all!

Swimsuit Summer!

Hello,world!

I apologise for being a little quiet on the photo-front lately. I have been shooting away, but all at once, so now I am having a major catch-up on retouching before I even begin thinking about venturing out and taking some self-portraits!

I am really happy to share this set of photos with you, featuring the wonderful Amber who shows just how you work a swimsuit!

We shot locally in Norwich, and collaborated with Emily Kissock/MLE who is one of the sweetest girls I have met. She was our go-to girl for make-up, giving Amber a gorgeous array of pastel lips, and faux water droplets as a finishing touch to add to our 'wet-look' swim shoot.

These are the results of the shoot, and a huge thank you to Scott Barrett for assisting us! I had a really fabulous time;

Photographing Oli

Back towards the end on March, I had a test shoot with Oli. You may have seen a couple of the images on my website, one of which has been invited to be submitted to Getty Images (yay!), but I never got around to showing you a couple more from the day.

I met Oli outside a garage, unfortunately due to my lift into the city being post-poned because my ride put the wrong fuel in the car at the filling station during the pandemonium of that potential petrol strike. So Oli came and rescued me and we made our way to an abandoned pumping station just outside of the city. I had been there once before for a test shoot, but never properly explored it. It has so many gorgeous textures playing, and it's age makes it very appealing to photograph.

We photographed around there for about an hour, then decided that we wanted to do something a bit more summery, seeing as the weather was starting to become scorching!

We headed to one of the local parks and photographed caboodle more there, which is where I photographed Oli near some daffodils, which is my favourite shot from the day!

I have photographed Oli one more time since then, and I will be blogging about that in due course, too!
