The other day I had the pleasure of photographing Stacey. Stacey had seen my work on Facebook and had approached me to photograph her 'just for fun'. Despite some recent stormy weather, Stacey was happy to work outside to achieve the look I was after.
After several email conversations, about being nervous, and not knowing what to wear, Stacey came down to my photographic studio in Newark to show me a selection of outfits she had chosen, and with the help of Make-up Artist Clare Allen, we chose a lovely soft summery dress to contrast with the impending storm brewing on the horizon.
Clare and Stacey spent a few moments finishing make-up and sorting out hair(not something I have any experience in!) before we all made our way down the road to an abandoned tennis court near to where I live. I had already decided what I wanted to acheive, so I set up my Lumedynes and Pocket Wizards and started shooting. Stacey was wonderful, despite a few nerves at the start of the shoot, she was soon in the swing of it all, even sitting in the long grass despite not knowing what was living in there....
Before long I had a great set of images, just as the sun started to set, the weather worsened and we called it a night. Thankfully, we had achieved everything I set out to do, and more. Stacey and Clare were both fantastic and I would be more than appy to work with them both again.....just hope they like the photos.
