Andi and Aimee - Coming Soon!

The fabulous Andi and Aimee married last month in Stamford - I met them earlier this year at Sheffield Botanical Gardens for their engagement shoot.
An engagement shoot is something I do with every bride and groom, to make sure they like my style of photography.
Andi and Aimee rocked it in their shoot - and keep your eyes peeled for their wedding photos, coming soon!

The Joys Of A Shootsac!

Being a girl and a photographer is a bit of a struggle sometimes. Depending on the kind of shoot it is, you usually need loads of kit. I have a HUGE Lowepro rucksac that feels like I am smuggling gold bullion everytime I carry it...
Add to this a tripod, video light, and other gubbins and you've got arm and shoulder pain by the end of the day.
But I have a savior! American photographer Jessica Claire has designed a camera bag called a Shootsac. It's a lifesaver!
It comes all wrapped in a pretty box...

And it even has a little thankyou sticker...


The Shootsac is a really strong neoprene, which makes it easy to carry lenses without a huge padded bag...

The Big Rescue Of Patsey!

I was sorting through my computer and came across these which I meant to blog in the summer and never got around to!
Blogstalkers, there's a story here. This is Patsey - she's a little lost dog (she's found her owner now don't worry!)
She got trapped down a drain and my bro-in-law and husband had to fight through a thicket of brambles to lift her out.
She's been stuck in there roughly two days but here she is, cleaned up after her rescue as happy as larry. She's shown with her rescuers Mike and Liane!

Moo Designs Fashion Shoot!

Fashion photography has always been my inspiration. I scour magazines for posing ideas and my trademark in my weddings is the 'fashion' edge I give to the day. My photography is stylish and edgy and I work hard to keep my posing fresh.
When I was given the chance to shoot some fashion pics for a new fashion designer called Moo - I jumped at the chance.
The shots were for the company's opening ad campaign and it was a bit of a last minute thing. All I had on me was a camera and a video light - I hope you like what I came up with.
NB - Moo has opened a shop in Lucorum, Barnsley. Check it out they have some fab bags!

Miss G In The Boudoir!

When you post photographs of boudoir clients, people are ALWAYS dubious as to whether the client is real or a model. It's difficult to post boudoir clients, because quite often the photos are done as a suprise for a hubby to be - or as a confidence boosting present for yourself.
Quite often, boudoir shots are for your eyes only and not something you share with the world. At Dolly, we don't expect it of our clients - we ALWAYS ask before we post, and we don't have any problem with it if you say no.
But it's always thrilling to be able to share your work and Miss G a recent Barnsley client of ours was brave enough to share.
Thanks so much!
