Here are some shots took recently with some nice B&W and toned looks – the video slideshow looks good too.
Last week I had the pleasure of photographing 45 models for 15 NVQ level 3 students from Hertford Regional College.
Part of their course is to do a photographic shoot and where better to do than at my studio!
As you can imagine it was a pretty intense day I will show the students over 1700 images. You can view an edited version of these (300 shots) on the Video slideshow on this post.
Barbara Martin Studios – Hertford design and make handcrafted Silver Jewellery, Hats, Fascinators and Bridal Headdresses.
Here’s what Barbara has to say about it.
Andrew and I have worked together on numerous photo shoots, for the studio. I can’t believe we are still talking – I can be a nightmare, as I usually know what I am looking to achieve before we even start. Andrew takes all this in his stride, adds some more ideas to the pot and with his expertise – we come up with some fantastic results – as you can see! The photographs achieved are used to promote Barbara Martin Studios within the tabloids, on the website (barbaramartinstudios.com) and any literature that is given away, postcards and e-mails etc.
Recently Hayley & Nigel came up from Surrey to my studio in Ware for a Pre-Wedding Shoot. It was great to meet up again after almost a year.
We spent some time discussing their wedding before running the some poses, showing what I like to do and why, proving that it doesn’t have to take long to get lots of great looks in a very short time if the person at the end of the end of the camera knows what they are doing!
The feed back I get from Pre-Wedding Shoots is that they really help – it makes things so much easier on the Big day.
Hayley and Nigel are going to choose one of the images from the shoot (10×8″ in a 20 x 24″ mount) that all their guests can sign and leave messages on. A great momento for the future.
I can’t wait to photograph their wedding at Tewin Bury Farm this summer.
A first for me a double wedding!
Emma & Louisa identical twins who do everything together got married together.
The year before I had shot a wedding on the 19th of December and I had some shots of the Bride in the snow and Emma & Louisa saw these said wouldn’t it be amazing if we had snow “we would love some shots like that” and you’ve guessed it they got it.
What a day, it snowed really heavily on the Saturday, so on the day of the wedding there was a thick blanket of snow and as you can see the Old Palace at Hatfield house looked magical.
Everyone involved with the wedding really pulled out all the stops to make it a day to remember.
I’m really pleased they loved the pictures because I loved taking them.
On Friday it was Vicki & John’s big day and for the time of year the weather was perfect with a fresh dusting of snow and The Priory Barns set the scene beautifully
It was a perfectly planned day filled with gorgeous details and happy guests, which was wonderful to be a part of and to capture.
Here is a preview from the day.
In early December I had the pleasure of photographing Michelle & Matt’s wedding at St Boneventure’s Church Welwyn Garden City with the reception held in the Tythe Barn Tewin Bury Farm.
Their attention to detail was incredible, they obviously spent a huge amount of time organizing their big day – and it certainly payed off. Everyone had a fantastic day.
