I spent this morning with Danni and Stuart at Marwell Hall for their pre-wedding shoot taking some photographs around the hall and surrounding features.

This afternoon I had the pleasure of shooting Reni for a short while to get some new headshots for her. We worked on 2-3 different looks and some varying expressions and here are three images from the session. I’ll be working on the rest of the shoot over the next couple of days and prepping the images ready for Reni to select her favourites for her headshots.

It is traditional and still very popular to have your guests sign a book with a lovely message for the couple. Quite often this is a blank book, or is enhanced with polaroid images taken at the reception of the guests. We take this one step further to create a beautiful bespoke book with images of the couple presented in a contemporary design and uniquely personalised to them and their wedding day. Space is left either amongst images or on blank pages with plenty of pages and room for the number of guests you are expecting.

This evening I was pleased to be accepted to attend a Hasselblad Studio session in Portsmouth where due to the restricted numbers I was able to spend over an hour shooting with the new Hasselblad H4D camera. After a brief period of instruction and some time reviewing the quality of results at a still life area I moved onto a white background studio where I was able to photograph Mia with a variety of lenses. Supported by the knowledgeable and friendly Hasselblad staff I was quickly up to speed with the camera and creating some lovely images .
