Positively Paula

There is always something positive about Paula. She comes with enthusiasm to every shoot. There is always a flow to our conversation and everything we do is full of ideas to get something that little bit different. You will have to wait for that as I will make a separate blog of that! Sorry. Paula has come a long way since last year. She has completed her course at The London College of Musical Theatre and is so much more confident. She even has an acting agent. Hopefully they will be happy with her new images. Terrific day.

Abi Amidst the Ancient Woodland

Having had a lovely lunch at Devil's Dyke we embarked on our next location. It was going to be a mystery until we arrived literally. The idea was to drive and stop where it was interesting. One of my ideas was to do something with the Seven Sisters just east of Seaford. The sun was searingly hot so that was a major factor as we pulled up. Instead of heading for those chalk cliffs we saw the fantastic woodland surrounding the car park. Very ancient the woodland turned out with wonderful fallen trees. Lovely dappled light came through the branches. Even so lighting was going to be tricky so I adopted two ways. 1. With the on-camera flash. 2. ISO set at 400 and shutter speed set to the slowest without getting camera shake. Abi was her fantastic self; climbing, leaning and sitting on trees and branches. The aim to get as many different looks and feels certainly worked. It is always lovely to spend time with Abi. Being creative as a team and sharing great conversation certainly makes for a successful shoot.

Abi! Angel at Devil's Dyke

Rain has totally devastated location shoots since April. So when I got a message from Abi to say that she wanted a last-minute shoot it was jump in the car with my camera and Laptop and away. First destination was Devil's Dyke just outside Brighton. It was packed on a seriously sunny day but with the vastness just a short walk to the dramatic dyke there was relative quiet. Abi was so keen and with our mutual love of music conversation flowed as usual. Abi is a wonderful singer and more keen on her modelling than I had seen her. We worked happily with the dynamic back-drop and moved around with Abi changing outfits. Happy we had enough variety we found a table at the pub outside and chatted over a lovely lunch. Then it was off to......... Wherever we ended up. Abi courtesy of Pure Curvation Model Management
