Fantasy shoot.

Well Yesterday was very fun, i arranged a shoot with faboulous MUA Sian Lidgate, and model Lauren lamarr. It went extremely well. Im so happy with the out come because the pictures came out amazing!

It was a very fun chilled shoot, We started at about 10am as we wanted to get an early start on the day. We experimented with the haor and make up and and got a very fantasy look from the experimenting. We wanted to try and acheive a tim walker style by making the pictures very summery and florarly, and i think we managed to achive this (although no where near Mr Walkers exellence!) We hadent really thought of location until my sister mentioned somewhere she had seen while on her bike so we took the car to the hospital across the road from my house and went up a back farm road to get to the location, we had to hop 2 fences and a field filled with nettles. (On the one day i decide to wear a dress!) I didnt get stung but i did get scratched quite a bit we had to go through a wee stream and a couple of hills aswell but it was worth it for the results we got :).


Fixing her dress

We did managte to get a couple of behind the scenes from it but there should be more on the way! :)

Us trying to haul all our props around including 2 wooden chairs!

The location where we shot was actually really beautiful and we were really lucky it didnt rain on us we got little bits of blue every now and then!

This next image was lauren lying on a log, but she had hair in the way which was distracting in the shot, you can just see Sian's hand fixing her hair for her :)


And here are some of the final results from the days shooting, the rest you can see on my flickr.

Enjoy! :)

Well, i got my studio lights a couple of weeks ago and things are going great, and had a test shoot yesterday with the fabulous award winning make up artist Sian Lidgate and model Gail Mackenzie.
We all experimented it was purely just go with the flow yesturday and as a result of the relaxed attitude on set we got some fab images out of it. We all got on very well and the atmosphere was relaxed and calm and friendly as well, which is deffinetly a plus for me, no bitching or moaning, we all got on great. We started about 12, got the studio set up while sian did the make up and we all helped each other out. we managed to squeeze 3 looks in to 3 and a half hours which is exellent! Ive still got loads more to edit! I always love editing studio photos because the quality if far better that natural light plus i love playing about with lighting! :) heres a couple of behind the scenes!


This was us on our third look and we decided we wanted to put a wee bow on the model so sian went right in there and did it and i managed to catch a quick 'BTS' shot.


re-adjusting the bow for second half of the photos.

Im so thankful i got the chance to work with two talented professionals, the model gail also happens to be a very talented photographer as well.

On another note, Id quite like to try my hand a movie stills photography, ive been researching it for a while but i know its very hard to break into that side of the industry, anyone who could give me tips or some advice id be very greatful for :)

Another shoot last week with Jacqui and Shannon. The picture came out really amazing! :)
we went to Jacqui's house to prepare and get ready it was a horrible day at first but we managed to catch some rays at the end :)



And here are the final results...

I haven't really updated my blog much recently, ive been so busy with shoots i haven't had the time to do it.
however i've found a free minute to update everything so ill take the opportunity to do it now!

I had a shoot down by the sea front, we had the model, MUA and stylist and it went really well! we took quite a few behind the scenes shots aswell just so you can see what ive been up too recently. we didnt have anywhere for the model to change se she had to change outside i felt so bad for her because passers by kept watching and whistling but she was a pro and kept going! then we decided the outfit didnt work and had to change, again! but everything worked out in the end and we found an outfit that worked.








when we went to do the shots on the sea front the view was just so beautfiul i couldnt not take a picture!




and here is an example of one of the final images! :)



and another...




ENJOY!
