Family Photoshoot - Polhawn Fort, Cornwall

This family travelled down from London to Cornwall for a holiday to celebrate their 10 year wedding anniversary. 10 years ago the couple had got married at the ever so romantic Polhawn Fort positioned at the far end of Whitsand Bay, Cornwall. They were so excited to show their children where they said 'I do' and to also reminisce. I was asked to come along and document the visit and re-enact some of their wedding photos but with 2 new additions + Dog!

The weather, to be completely honest, was awful! But we decided to brave the elements and it really didn't effect the shoot. I managed to stuff a brolly down my coat and I instantly clicked with the girls so we had great fun! 

A very Cornish wedding - Lewannick - Cowslip, Launceston.

This wedding couldn't of been anymore Cornish! When I first met Natalie she told me it was her dream to have photos in a field on top of a pyramid of hay bales and was wondering if it would work. I gave her a massive yes, and she stuck to her word and made it happen! The whole day was so well planned with a running rustic/countryside/vintage theme. There were creative details everywhere, which no doubt they had spent a long time putting together, including her Grandfathers old milk bottles as vases and the Groom even baked their fantastic cake!

It was pouring with rain for this photoshoot but we embraced the weather and the photos turned out great! I love how I managed to capture the raindrops in a lot of the images.

Band Photos - 'Standard Issue' - St.Mellion Cornwall

Last night I went and watched a local band who I have been desperate to see for a while now. All the members have known each other since primary school, (the same school I went to!) and they are now all at secondary school together. With their common interest in music it has resulted in them forming the band 'Standard Issue'.... And oh my are they a talented lot!

They played at our local pub and with it only being their 2nd official gig, the place was crammed! They performed a range of music from the Arctic Monkeys and Oasis to Led zeppelin and Pink Floyd. As you can imagine you have to have some serious talent to pull off songs from those artists but these guys rocked it!

 Standard Issue are going to go far! 

Please scroll down to see a video of them playing!

Portraits - Jenni - Kit Hill Cornwall

A while back I photographed the very talented Jenni Ball, also known as singer Jenni Anne.
I vaguely knew Jenni from going to the same school and from following her on Instagram. Jenni caught my eye, not only because of her beauty in front of the lens but also her love and talent in music, art and photography.

It was a very chilly wintery day so I of course suggested we should go to the most exposed and rural place in our local area, Kit Hill! It may have been a mistake as it was FREEZING, but if you catch Kit Hill on a good clear day it is the perfect place for photography. You can find giant boulders, mining architecture, a water filled quarry, areas of flat green grass and moorland...you can get very creative up there, plus it is great place to walk and there are of course always lots of dogs to stroke!

When on Kit Hill I stuck to my 50mm Lens to get some fab shallow depth of field (blurred background) images. Since buying my 24-105mm lens I have been neglecting my 50mm which is such a shame as it has to be the best lens I or anyone could buy! I must admit I did sneak back on to my 24-105mm for the studio shots.

Once I finally relieved Jenni from the cold (I am sorry Jenni!) we went back to my home where I constructed my pop-studio. It is a simple setup with a light and flashgun, it works great!

Take a look at my favourite snaps from the day...
