Well folks it took a lot of organising but we made it. On sunday the big photo shootout finally happened at a derelict RAF base just north of Cambridge.

Really great day, we had some amazing models, photographers and makeup artists on hand. Really can’t wait to see what everybody made of it. Unfortunately I spent most of my day sorting things out and not shooting (damn I missed out on some AMAZING models ) but here’s a couple of mine from the lighting seminar I gave.

Hope you all enjoyed it and add us to your RSS reader if you want to know when and where the next shoot will be!

More adventures soon,
Alex

So for those of you that haven’t heard before, I’m organising a big photo pow wow/shootout for the 25th of April. The location is a derelict RAF base just North of Cambridge. The base is huge with plenty of space for us all to work and create some really unique photos. Just to whet your appetite, here’s one I took at the location before:

Rain again? Damn. Well anyway come rain, thunder or snow, I don’t think it could have dented let alone spoiled this wedding. Andrew and Tracy got married in their local village hall at Radnage near High Wycombe on Saturday and you couldn’t have asked for a happier, funner day. Seriously I know weddings are nearly always happy and fun but this one took the cake.

From dancing down the aisle, fish and chip dinners, being shouted out by a lady who thought we were trespassing (we were taking photos down a little road which turned out to be her drive. As soon as she realised it was a newly wed couple though she was falling over herself to help us), topped off by a 16 piece swing band. Who could ask for more? And the details? the details! You can see later in the photos just how much love Tracy poured into all of the little details.

This time around I was assisted by Chris Beaumont: an extremely talented wedding photographer in his own right based in Lincolnshire. I highly recommend you check out his blog sometime. Chris, I hope you can join me for some more weddings later in the year.

Anyway on with the photos. This was taken on a straw seat outside at the end of the night…
