JP Portrait Session!

Ok ladies JP is back by popular demand - I snatched him away from the house the other night to use and abuse him as a model (purely for creative purposes of course) and I have to say he was pretty damn brilliant!!! We had a lot of fun - JP is always great at fooling around without any prompting which is great for the camera of course and especially good at dazzling me with his bright blue sparklies too hehe, I love my goofy husband! I threw in just a few of me at the end, wonder if I could do this fashion blog stuff too huh lol??? Ooh met a few fine animals along the way too, geez I need a pet already! xx

  17. Looks like you had such a fun photo shoot! Lovely pictures! I really like the b&w ones. But I think I've been stuck on b&w portraits for a while now.

    Have a lovely, fun weekend!

  18. WOW oh WOW! I love the pictures! My favourite ones are the ones with close ups of your hubby and the brick wall behind and of course the picys of yourself. For the record you could definitely do the fashion blog thing ;-) Whenever I go to England I am so taking some pictures of you for my blog!

    By the way I didn't quite buy your camera but I bought an 'affordable' SLR. Got a Canon EOS 500D. I hope it's not too bad because I will be paying it up for a wee while like :-)

  19. oh wow ladies what to say, so much!!

    Yours Truly Dear thank you so much sweets, what an adorable thing to say! The jumpsuit is super cheap so you should look up New Look if you want one, the doggy isn't mine (sad face) I happened upon this curious chap in the water meadows, I need to get me a dog too! xx

    Thank you Abi hon xx

    Steph, how wonderful you found me through the beautiful Jodie, I love her!! Thank you so much, they aren't actions just 'vintagizing' tutorials I picked up online and in my book. It is quite simple to follow and if you want me to send you the info in an email, just let me know your email address. There is a little bit of one's own intuition needed just to get the right tones, contrast, saturation and an extra layer of white colour but this is straightforward enough. Thank you for for your sweet words xx

    Thank you Heather, black and white photos are so classic aren't they!! I find it hard to go wrong with black and white, there's nothing wrong with being stuck on these - I often prefer them too in portraits! xx

    Lady Fashionista thank you honey, that really means a lot!! You bet, you let me know when you're next here and you can stay with me and we can have a day of fashion & photography - with a few pit stops for lattes!!! Seriously the Canon EOS 500D is a really good buy, a great camera to begin your photography with. As soon as you start using it you will find it hard to ever imagine how you took a photo before without it!! I can't wait to see the photos you take with it! xx
