photoshoot with Sabrina in Halstead, Essex | www.gavinconlan.com

Over Christmas I was out walking my dog when she discovered a hole in the fence leading into the grounds of what used to be an adult education college... I had walked past this building loads in the past wishing I could get in there to shoot, it never looked possible as security was really tight until now. Finding the way in I've now promoted Holly (my dog) to chief location scout, i'm not sure she's that bothered by the promotion though ...lol...  

I decided to run an advert via the starnow website & get a shoot planned for sometime in January, you'll see by the images below the shoot went ahead and I loved the results Sabrina and myself achieved.

Another location we used was the church at the bottom of town, it opened recently for people to visit, its no longer a working church but the interior is still stunning.

The day of the shoot we started in the Church and finished in the derelict building, I loved the shoot it was a great day even though it was bitterly cold we produced some great imagery that I love...

For your enjoyment (hopefully :) I have selected a bunch of favourites to give you a flavour of the shoot ....

Jodi & Jon's Wedding Reception at Langdon Hills Golf and Country Club, Essex

9 days after their amazing wedding at Cameron House (click here to view) Jodi & Jon had their wedding reception for all their friends and family at the Langdon Hills Golf Club.  It was a great idea because it meant the excitement of the wedding was extended that little bit further, all the ladies were rocking their outfits the gents were looking really cool and the party was a great night I even joined in late in the evening all thanks to Geoff who shot the last few images :)

This has been an amazing journey for me and it's been such an honour that they chose me as their photographer, I gave you both my absolute all and I believe we have created such a beautiful keepsake that you'll cherish forever.
