August a busy month

It has been a very busy month of August for me! It’s so important when planning a summer wedding for the couple to book their photographer as soon as they can, from experience I get booked up really quickly for those popular months. So I will have to share with you some of the weddings I have been to over the last few weeks.
Starting with a wedding for a very cute couple in Norwich at the Oasis Sports and Leisure. A really lovely relaxed photo shoot, the couple wanted some nice shot’s of them as a couple and one or two different shots. The groom loved the idea of the walking shot of him and his groomsmen and I think they all enjoyed the relaxed feel it gave them, a nice alternative to a standing pose. It was nice to do a wedding in the gardens of the Oasis Sports and Leisure, this gave me more space to be creative. I was really pleased with the results.

Maternity Time

August 18, 2011 by Sylvia | Comments Off

It’s Maternity time and It’s really hard to pick a few pictures from this shoot, there are so many great ones!

I took time thinking about a lot of different poses and style’s, The black background is something that at a mention a lot of people are not so sure on, because it is not used as much as white. The black however seems to be quite flattering and works really well to focus on the emotion. I used some nice soft lighting, to enhance the softness of the lines. On this shoot I really wanted to achieve a simple but emotive look. I used a technique called selective colour to bring out the vibrant colour of a flower on a black and white image it worked really well although I also love the original in colour too, so both images made the gallery.

A great shoot and great couple, a huge thanks to Hollie and Simon for sharing these moments.
