I don’t quite know what to say about these. Sometimes the planets align just right and you get an absolutely amazing photoshoot. This was one of those times.
Steph and Nick flew in from Hong Kong for their engagement shoot. We’d chatted about it a bit in advance and I pitched the idea of taking them to an old abandoned RAF base. I’ve been there a few times before for various photoshoots, but never with a couple. Steph and Nick agreed to my crazy idea and I picked them up off the train on a sunny Sunday afternoon to begin the shoot…

So I spent this weekend out with one of my commercial customers on a big shoot. Can’t say that much about it yet or post many images but I did get permission to put this one up quickly. Rest assured more from this shoot (both trials and triumphs) will be coming in the following weeks, oh and sorry to all those whose emails I’ve been a touch slow answering!

More adventures soon,
Alex
So autumn is coming! As such we decided it would be a great idea to take Jon and Aurelie out for a quick engagement session before their wedding next year. Turns out Saturday really wasn’t the best choice of a day! Overcast and very windy. Oh well, I think we’re going to try again for better weather soon and once the leaves have turned a little more golden. Until then though here’s a sneak peak of some of the photos from Sat.
Recognize the location? Yep I thought I’d take them to my favorite derelict house just outside of Cambridge…

So Saturday gave me the chance to photograph the gorgeous Liz, an aspiring model who needed some shots for her portfolio. Obviously I was happy to oblige and we decided to hit the haunted house you might have seen in a couple of other posts. It’s really an amazing location and every time I go there I come back wanting more! Literally around every corner there’s three more shooting locations.
Time was tight on Saturday and there was only me to carry gear so I went with a simple two light setup and we only managed a few locations at the house. Liz made it easy though, I mean how can you go wrong photographing somebody like her! Monkey press buttons and get nice shot….

Strobist info: 1 SB900 high camera right into a Extra Small Chimera Softbox with a 60° grid on the front to prevent spill. Back light is from a 540Ez camera left zoomed and fired at Liz.
