Wedding at Rise Hall - Jemima and Garreth

-
One of this summer's highlights was photographing the wedding of Jemima and Garreth.  I had already done a family shoot with them and their twin babies, plus I had photographed her sister's wedding the year before, so they knew me well and how easy-going and relaxed I made them feel - important if you are already  bit nervous about having your photo taken!

I got there as hair and makeup were being done, and the rooms they had for their preparations were spacious, beautiful and had lovely light from the windows, which makes things that little bit easier!

I managed to track down groom Garreth for a quick set of portraits before he was whisked away to see the registrar, then on to the ceremony room, with the adjoining doors opened up to increase the capacity, and it was still standing room only at the back!

Speeches and food followed, then more playing outdoors as the sun was setting, with the family relaxing, allowing some moments for photos of the couple with their little girls, who had been asleep earlier.

Party time from then on with music from live band Func On the Rocks while they all danced the night away!

Professional headshots

Actor headshot in the studio If you are a professional and need your "public" image to be a little better than a selfie that you got from your Facebook profile picture, step this way! With the studio setup we can do a number of different looks, depending on the session time. Actor headshot done in the studio in Hull Same actor, but with a different look, shot during the same session.   Actor headshot on white background And again, shot just outside the studio for a more industrial outdoor look. Headshot done outside the studio You may need a more serious headshot for your LinkedIn profile, or for your "meet the team" section of your company website, or perhaps something more dramatic if you are an actor needing to promote your portfolio.

Home boudoir photography in the Hull area

-
Image
  If you are wanting to arrange a boudoir photoshoot in Hull or the surrounding areas, instead of a shoot in the studio, you have the option of having it in your home. It gives a much different look and will give it more of a personal touch. It also means you have access to all of your stuff - all your outfits are close to hand and you are in familiar surroundings. As long as you have a decent amount of space and a relatively uncluttered room, we can make some beautiful photos without you leaving the house. Please get in touch so we can discuss suitability for a home photoshoot. Here are a few example images from a home shoot, using no more than light from the window and occasionally a small flashgun to fill the shadows. Most of the shoot was done in the window area or on the bed.

Model shoot with Natalja

-

 Natalja came for her second photoshoot this week.  We had previously done some fashion-style photos at the studio, after abandoning an outdoor shoot due to the wintery weather, but this time we had discussed a few ideas based on some more sensual photos we had seen online. She brought a selection of quite fabulous lingerie and worked to implied nude (even though she wasn't quite!)   Although she said she had not modelled before, she had a great look and took direction when needed, but was happy to play around with her posing.  Here are some of my favourites.  If you want to arrange a shoot of your own in the Hull East Yorkshire, get in touch through my contact page .
