Modelling portfolio shoot


I was so pleased to be asked by budding model Jemma if I would take some pictures for her portfolio. We decided to go for the challenge of taking these in Woking Town Centre at the end of a college day for Jemma. Not the place that immediately springs to mind for pretty backdrops! Fortunately we were able to catch a bright sun a little while before it set and had good fun getting a variety of moody shots. Check out the rest of the shoot in the customer galleries section.


Here's Jemma's comments about the session:

"I've had a photo shoot before - but it wasn't half as good as this one. It was so enjoyable! The presentation my CD came in was fantastic. Sarah, thank you for everything you've done! I felt so comfortable and the photos are just incredible!"

I'm sure we are going to be seeing more of this gorgeous girl in future!

Romantic Engagement Session in the Surrey Snow!




I've been in my absolute element this week not only having fun with the girls making snowmen and sledging but out and about with the camera bag too! The local stretch of canal is now completely frozen over and makes a great backdrop for wintery outdoor portraits.

The loveliest bride-to-be you can imagine, Trudi and Paul, her England Rugby scrum half fiance had an impromptu engagement session in the snow this week. We had the idea way back in the summer that we'd hold off doing the pre-wedding practice session in the feint hope we might get some dreamy snow pictures over the winter. And the dream came true! See the truly romantic results in the clip above. Paul and Trudi are SUCH a pleasure to photograph - so clearly in love and such a fab, fun couple! (I really can't wait for their wedding!)

The place we took these pictures is very close to my base in Woking and I would happily take any intrepid couples or families down there and 'make hay while the sun shines' - or rather take pictures while the snow lasts! Infact I've been there again this afternoon for a family of nine having a birthday photo session (a gift from my friend Kevin's wife for his 30th birthday).

Please contact me asap if you'd also like some photos in the snow, before it melts!
