Photoshoot with Holly

I’ve shot with Holly many many times already, as she’s my favourite model. This time, she wanted to shoot a video, so we headed to a great location, Brancaster beach on the Norfolk coast. We got lucky with our timing, and it was low tide in the afternoon (giving huge expanses of beach), and the tide quickly came in at sunset (giving huge expanses of water to reflect the fantastic skies).

Cambridge Ballerina Project – Zoe & Gabrielle

This was the fourth Cambridge Ballerina Project shoot in a week, all queued up waiting for the weather to improve. Zoe was also in this year’s show, and has a twin sister Gabrielle visiting from New Zealand. Both are equally well-trained ballet dancers, so a twin shoot presented great opportunities for symmetric poses.

Cambridge Ballerina Project – Kizzie

Kizzie is the new president of the Cambridge University Ballet Club, and while that doesn’t automatically lead to a Cambridge Ballerina Project shoot (Lara, Hanna and Helen have all been on the committee), Kizzie did shine in this year’s show. She’s a student at Robinson College, one which I had not yet photographed for the Project, and it is almost entirely made up of red bricks, making for some very strong photos.

This first photo was taken on my iPhone and processed with Snapseed and Instagram, as the photo of the day for my #366project. It managed to bring out dramatic detail in the sky, as well as being much quicker and easier to create than my usual DSLR – Lightroom workflow. Most of the rest of the photos below were post-post-processed with Instagram, as I’m a big fan of the square format as well as the colour-processing.

Cambridge Ballerina Project – Ana

I noticed Ana at the barre during a ballet class taken by Glory, and was keen to arrange a shoot with her. Weather and availability conspired against us, so we ended up having to shoot on the day before Ana’s last exam, in windy overcast conditions. Not that you’d notice from Ana’s composure.
