Nathan Jess Promo Shoot: Part 2

So here's the sunshiny second half of Nathan's promo shoot! One perfect November afternoon (where's this snow, eh?) we set off into the park with a ladder, some twine, and a flock of paper birds... and left having received lots of curious looks, a couple of inquisitive visitors, and having captured some beautiful sun-flare, bokeh, crunchy leaves and warm autumn goodness.

Again let me say... make sure you download Nathan's single "I Am Redeemed", being released through Kingsway, and for sure check out his album too. So much good music in this guy.

Nathan Jess Promo Shoot: Part 1

Been looking forward to sharing this shoot for the past few weeks, and with just over a week until Nathan's single release... here it is!

Having been a little caught out by the clocks changing (earlier sunset) and our elusive location choice, we didn't get to use all our ideas, so we revisited the shoot for a Part 2 one gorgeous autumn afternoon. The two shoots have their own flavours to them, so I've split them into separate posts - in this one, enjoy some rugged scenery, tall marshy grasses, and tranquil lough-side tunes...

When I was thinking of possible locations and plans for this session I loved the idea of using origami birds, and pitched the idea. The only problem was that neither of us had done origami before, and we had less than 24 hours. Cue a quick lesson, a couple of trials, and much folding, and we were on our way.

Props to Nathan and Gemma for sloshing through the marshy location with me - make sure you check out Nathan's single "I Am Redeemed", it is wonderful. And download his album. And tell your friends.

Wedding: Ian + Amanda

May I introduce you to the newly-wed Jordans - who, according to a website the bride's sister pulled up, are 100% compatible! [If confirmation was needed on the wedding day, I think that would suffice ;) ] 

I worked on some of the images in a cafe, and must have been getting some looks as I giggled to myself  - never have I seen such an outwardly excited groom at the altar, waiting for his bride to come down the aisle! Ian was almost jumping on the spot, grinning from ear to ear and hardly able to contain himself... so wonderful to witness! I had such a great time with this couple and their bridal party and families, and was so happy to be a part of the day. Oh, and check out Amanda's funky purple shoes! And the gorgeous wedding cake details (hand made by Amanda's sister)... And the UH-MAZ-ING first dance!
