Raphaella With Love! The Deserted Chapel

Often the best images come from spontaneity and it was very much the case here! I had been working with the wonderful Raphaella and we settled to have lunch. It was during our break that she asked if there were any locations nearby. Being put on the spot only one location came to mind that would really work. It is a deserted chapel in West Sussex I had been to before and a short drive away. Off we went. Now we are talking late January so doing nude work was going to be hard on Raphaella so we had to work quickly. This was not a problem. Thank goodness for Image Stabilisers in lenses as light was not great. Up on walls and window sills as well as the ground inside and out of the chapel. There was a real radiance and and bold mood one moment melting into soft and classic the next. Special is not the word. I hope Raphaella is as proud of the images as I am.

Ellie! A New Side

It was time for a change and Ellie and myself took the time to plan lots of ideas. We decided to get a Make-up Artist involved. Laura with her very careful skills was just what we needed. When you get on with someone the ideas flow and results show the communication. I see so often the tension in models who never relax with photographers. The rapport and teamwork always provides results. Laura with her Make-up skills fitted well in the team and everything flowed. Enjoyment in your work produces your best. Lovely day, great team and super results.
