Photoshoot with Clare Gelderd
Clare Gelderd is a wedding photographer based in Ulverston working across Cumbria and the South Lakes. I grabbed the opportunity to put her on the other side of the lens.
Portraits with Monika
First time model Monika joined me at Hodge Close Quarry in Tilberthwaite (between Langdale and Coniston in the Lake District) for a portrait shoot.
Portraits with Mataya
I met Mataya at Scout Scar near Kendal for a one hour portrait session. Despiter never modelling before she took to it well and we were both very happy with the images.
Portraits with Natalie
I met Natalie at Scout Scar on the outskirts of Kendal (on the outskirts of the Lake District) to refresh her portfolio after she had taken a break from modelling.
Portraits with Beth (DnBethh)
DnB artist Beth joined me at Grizedale Forest near Hawkshead for a quick portrait shoot. All natural light images, additional effects courtesy of the Fractal Filters prism filter
Portraits with Leanne
Leanne (an old school friend) was kind enough to help me out with a test shoot of a new lighting technique I had been learning about from Felix Kunze’s lighting masters serie
Long exposures over Langdale
Not a great night for it, but I wanted to test the low-light capabilities of my new K3-II. Verdict: impressed!
