Boudoir fine art photoshoot

Here are just a few of the images from the recent Boudoir fine art photoshoot. The female body has so much beauty, so why not show it off & have some intimate images, tastefully shot of yourself whether it be a gift to your fiance on your wedding night, to your husband, or just to treat yourself. For more details click on the PDF on my main website.
I'd like to thank Teri & Kim for taking part in the shoot & putting their trust in me to produce some stunning images. Kim is a very talented design student & Teri is in the process of developing a company selling high end pet furniture. Her partner Mel (a life long friend of mine) manufactures the bespoke furniture. Their company will be live on the web in the very near future. For any of you who are looking for something a bit different for your furry friends the website address will be www.rockstardogs.co.uk

Amy & Richard's Pre-wed shoot

Here are just a few of the images taken from Amy & Richard's Pre-wedding shoot last weekend. The couple are to be married at Close House this coming May. Both being keen snow boarders we had plenty in common to talk about. Close House is a fabulous wedding venue with some great areas indoors & out for photo opportunities. I look forward to shooting the wedding & meeting the Welsh rugby guys (friends & family of Richard) who I'm told will be a great help at organizing the groups!

Kodak National Wedding & Portrait Awards 2008

After some persuasion from my husband & print lab I decided to enter the Kodak Wedding awards 2008 with this image. The awards ceremony was held by the MPA at the Hilton, Newcastle & was a very lavish occasion (the photography equivalent to the oscars)! There were ten finalists in the wedding category chosen from entrants around the UK. Although I didn't win I was one of the ten finalists!!

Abbie & Lee's Post-Wedding Shoot

A huge thank you to Jill & Richard for the use of their fabulous farm. Weather wise we had a great day, everywhere else in the country seemed to have rain but it stayed sunny where we were. The farm had so much variety to offer. The couple were both great & got right into the shoot straight away, with Abbie & her gorgeous smile & Lee with his "Blue Steel" look!!! Even Sam the pit bull seemed to have fun whilst peeing on my foot (good job I was wearing my wellies). Here are just a few of the images from the shoot. Thanks to Abbie & Lee for being so great & again to Jill & Richard.

The Wedding of Abbie & Lee

Abbie & Lee were married on 16th August at Christ Church and what a fantastic place to get married (not your normal dark church). The weather was great which made a change this summer. I arrived at Abbie's house early to shoot the bridal preparations & although Abbie was feeling nervous this didn't show in any of her images. Abbie's fathers speech about the little red shoes will stick with me forever! The happy couple were full of laughter & amazing to shoot. Here are just a few images from their day.

Post-Wed Shoot - Helen & Shaun

For those of you who were at the wedding you will remember the rain!!!! Well we had the post shoot booked for August which is always a good month weather wise. The sky was blue with not a cloud in sight......then........3 hours before the shoot the sky turned black & the heavens opened, there was hail stones the size of pound coins, traffic stopped as it was so bad!!!!
Thankfully the sky cleared & we got some great images. I'd like to thank Helen & Shaun for the shoot, they were both great & so easy to photograph. Here are just a few of the images from the shoot.

Abbie & Lee's Pre-wed shoot

We headed down to Tynemouth as this is where Lee proposed to Abbie. The weather was great for us. We found a little hut which acted as a great back drop along with the cliff face for some of the shots. Abbie is the daughter of a very good friend of mine who is also a photographer and is soon traveling to India to document work for Raleigh International for 3 months, visit her site by clicking here www.anntaylorphotography.co.uk

Abbie & Lee are to be married next month in Christ Church, North Shields & I'm really looking forward to capturing all that detail along with the fantastic stained glass windows.
