Today has been a Good Day. A few weeks ago Barnaby Aldrick, Rob Booker and I were having one of our regular jollies down the pub business meetings, and one thing we were discussing was flash techniques (flash in the sense of those bright camera lighting thingies that make your pictures not dark – stop me if I’m getting too technical) Anyway, although we all use flash at weddings and shoots etc, we really fancied exploring some creative flash techniques without the usual time constraints, so we decided to organise a full day shoot in a glossy fashion mag stylee. We found three fantastic models, Stef, Clare & Viv, who were all well up for striking poses (in the rain, natch) in an old mill-cum-mechanics’ yard – hardly the most glamourous of locations, but it worked perfectly for the cool grungy look we were trying to achieve. The girls were beautifully prepared for us by an amazing makeup artist KT who came up with some stunning looks for us.
Also can I mention Cris Matthews who spent the day with us and captured all of us on video during the day. We’re going to get it edited by next week so you will be able to see us in action and some of the behind the scenes stuff that was going on. Check back in a couple of days for a larger gallery of the day.
