Afternoon in Chalkney Woods with my family | www.gavinconlan.com

This afternoon we decided to have a trip over to Chalkney Woods, so me and mum decided to take Holly over there. We've never been before which is weird as it's only about 10mins from home and this time of year the bluebells start to bloom so I decided to take my camera with me (as us photographers do :)

We had a great time over there, the bluebells were indeed out and Holly had a proper good time she was running around like a maniac with so many new smells to explore.  The problem is as much as we love her god she smells right now, she kept rolling around on the floor and ended up getting covered in mud.  We couldn't have the hump with her because she looked so cute...!!!!!

Rocking it again in Bermondsey Village | www.gavinconlan.com

If you’ve been following my journal over the last couple of years you may have noticed that there’s one place in particular I love to shoot, since first visiting back in the summer of 2008 I have been blown anyway by it’s potential as a location.  It’s got everything you could wish for plus it’s extremely quiet so you can just get on with shooting without any distractions and the odd tourist getting in the way….

This shoot with the stunning Dina was a follow up (http://gavinconlan.xanga.com/720596087/photoshoot-with-dina/). The first shoot was cut short due to the weather being so damn cold and you know what women are like they can’t handle it as well as us men ;) seriously though I remember getting to a point where I thought my eyeballs were freezing over so I was well chuffed when we decided to call it a day ....

The weather this time around was a lot kinder to us (thank god) and apart from a heavy downpour an hour or so before we couldn’t have asked for more.  As I love shooting in the village I am always on the look out for new interesting locations places I haven’t used before, we definitely found a great one in particular with the tunnel shots…

I love photographing Dina, frame after frame we were rocking out some wicked shots, the camera was working overtime on this one.  We had a great laugh which made the shoot really easy and if it weren’t for the fact we both seemed to find it impossible to direct ourselves to the meeting point it would have been the perfect 10 :)

Right enough of my ramblings lets have a look at some of the shots we produced, I hope you enjoy..!!!!!

So if your ever around the London Bridge area then I’d recommend you take a stroll down to Bermondsey Village, they have a pub there called the Woolpack which has the most amazing art decor upstairs… 

Have a good day!!!!!

personal shoot with my little cousins.... | www.gavinconlan.com

something different for today's post.  I thought I'd upload a selection of photos taken from two seperate shoots with my little cousins over the last few months.  The first selection are of Aiden who was busting out all the poses for his own personal Christmas cards which were great and the second part of this selection are of Lenny and Albie which I had so much fun producing, except for the Man United ones being a Liverpool supporter - the things you do for your family aye ....

I hope you enjoy them..!!!!

Take care, Gavin ....
