Ok, so now we have better news about Faye’s eyesight today, we have, not only more images from the London Convention but more information about the images.

The first thing to notice is that I have reloaded one of the images from the SHOOT IN THE CITY workshop on Sunday because Faye has now reworked and slightly altered the image. This one was taken at the end of the workshop, downstairs at the main entrance of the Novotel. We just loved that white wall.

The second image is again at the same white wall and is one of my favourite images and also one that I was  lucky to capture. I had just told Nicky to go over and stand at the wall, while I considered what to do and what the exposure might be, as she just stood there waiting I grabbed the image and love its slightly melancholy, almost lonely look. More of this area to come!!

The final shot Faye has worked on today was in fact the first shot of the day. Again this is part of the exterior of the Novotel, almost in the car park and had the sun not been shining it possibly would not have worked as it is the light shining through the concrete uprights that makes this image, plus a little help from the reflector.

As I mentioned to our delegates, 4 of whom were Norwegian, Nicky and Steven are not models they are Actors. We declined the offer of using the usual SWPP models for this workshop and paid for Nicky and Steven  ourselves as they make an invaluable contribution to our workshops. Why, well simple really, because they are Actors they can get into the role of  the Bride and Groom and, in this case, play the part and then come out of the role they are playing instantly, moving from playfull to loving, then on to to a sensual intimate couple. Models cannot ‘act’ the part of a Bride and Groom and show true romance with each other because usually  they are shy of one another.Weddings are about romance, rex and most of all the love between two people and that is what we get from Steve and Nicky. So thank you to a brave couple on a very cold day in London.
