Behind The Scenes At "The Big Fat Wedding Bloggers Photo Shoot!"

So I've been a little quiet on the blog front lately, what with it being out of wedding season n all and my marvelous boss taking a well deserved break over Christmas BUT I'm back and have a massive blog post to boot. The big news from Devlin Towers last year was of course Lisa winning The British Journal of Photography's Wedding Photographer of the Year! and as one of the sponsors of the award was Hasselblad she also won the use of lots of their fantastic photography kit - much to the excitement of the Devlin Towers crew! Now we had to find an appropriate occasion to use such wonderful kit to the best of its ability... and Lisa didn't have much time to ponder, Kat from Rock n Roll Bride had an amazing project coming up involving a photoshoot with herself and 5 other UK Wedding bloggers (Kelly from Boho Weddings and Events, Amma from Beyond Beyond, Annabel from Love My Dress, Alexis from OMG I'm Getting Married and Charley from London Bride) and as though it was meant to be she asked Lisa to do the honors of being the photographer! What a perfect opportunity to use the super duper Hasselblad kit...

After weeks and weeks of planning Tuesday finally arrived and off we all trundled to the gorgeous Luella's Boudoir in Wimbledon where the shoot was to take place (and who's gorgeous dresses the girls were to model). And what a crazy day it was, we met so many lovely people it really was a pleasure to be there - so thankyou bloggers for all being so awesome and of course huge to thanks to everyone else behind the scenes inc.: Kate Barbour (stylist), Severin Hubert and Elbie Van Eeden (hair), Alison Cameron and Kaz Fernando (make-up), Richard Wakefield (behind the scenes filming) and Alison Trickey (flowers).

Aswell as assisting on the day, Lisa asked me to do a little "Behind the Scenes" documentary... the sort of thing I LOVE doing, it's all here - hair and makeup, snack time and uber-technology! so without further ado - here it is...













































Thank you to everyone involved for a fabulous day!

  2. I've just found my way here via the behind the scenes video from FxFilms. I have to say I much prefer your black and white images to the vintage themed one's on Lisa's blog, although maybe that's just me!
