Photo shoot with Kelly Pepper | Gavin Conlan Essex Wedding & Portrait Photographer | www.gavinconlan.com

This was my 3rd photo shoot with Kelly this time taking place in Bermondsey Village near London Bridge.  It's a location I use a lot because it gives me so many possibilities for backdrops and it's fairly quiet too so you don't get disturbed while shooting there.

Kelly is musician and songwriter, you should check out her website which contains all the links to her work.  If you'd rather check out her youtube channel directly you can do so here where you'll have access to her latest tracks.

All images were shot using a mixture of available light and off camera flash.

Hope you enjoy these images.

Take care!!! 

"INTIMATE" London Boudoir Photography | Gavin Conlan Essex Wedding & Portrait Photographer | www.gavinconlan.com

Finally after waiting almost 2 years since I shot this boudoir session I have finally decided to let it loose on the world.  

I loved this shoot so much it was my first ever boudoir session and I'm an absolutely passionate about these images - that's why without doubt it's my biggest blog post so far with over 100 images on display below.

I've decided to display the photographs in a way to give them more of an album feel hopefully this will add to the impact for the viewer - all these images were shot on location in an amazing boutique hotel in London.

The amazing decor really added to the impact of the shots and we couldn't resist shooting in every part of the room - we had a great time.  I believe the images are the perfect example to show you how to create beautiful imagery in small places as long as you think outside the box anything is truly possible.  

At first I was a little concerned that the editing of these images wouldn't reflect my current style of post production but you know what I don't wanna change a thing, the shoot was a major turning point for me definitely one of the highlights of my photographic journey so far.

I really hope you love these shots as much as I do - now just sit back and enjoy viewing them.

 

Fashion & Portrait Photography at Arbat Restaurant, London | Gavin Conlan Essex Wedding & Portrait Photographer | www.gavinconlan.com | www.londonspeedlitescene.co.uk

My third meet up with the awesome LSS (London Speedlite Scene) group this time at the Russian bar and restaurant called Arbat in Acton, London - originally this shoot was to be at the DollHouse but due to unforeseen circumstances had to be changed to Arbat at the last minute.   

I absolutely loved this location, it had some fantastic natural light and loads of great areas to shoot in.  I wanted to challenge myself for this shoot so i heavily restricted my camera bag and decided to shoot solely with the 14-24mm wide angle and the 50mm f1.4 prime lens.  The wide angle lens is now my favourite I can't believe that I never really used it before now since this meet up I have used it loads, again all the images you see are shoot purely with a mixture of available light and my video lights.

All the models were again provided by Elect Model Management and MUA's by Intense Make-up Artists both agencies were formed out of London Speedlite Scene
