The weather was not kind to us – it looked bleak when I set off. I had arranged to meet Richard and Ingrid in Birmingham city centre at Brindley Place. The plan was an urban style portrait shoot. It started to rain as I arrived and got steadily worse. Now I am not one for letting a simple thing like a little rain get in the way of a shoot. I suppose the story would be different if it was howling down with horizontal rain, but as it was it was a warm Saturday morning and the rain didn’t really pose a problem. That’s one of the great things about shooting in this location, there are lots of covered areas just perfect for a shoot like this. I must admit, I did get a little wet for some of the shots, but I tried my best to keep my lovely models dry.
In spite of the weather, the day went very well, we got some great images, it was a lot of fun shooting this session and on the whole I think everyone enjoyed the whole experience.
Richard and Ingrid made great subjects, it was a special day for them and I am really pleased with the end result. Hope you like them too.
