Collaboration with Fern Blevins

This shoot has been a long time coming.. the longest of them all! Back when we were still in school, and in the very first days of my love for photography, Fern asked me if I would be up for collaborating with her and photographing this beautiful Edwardian dress she had created for her A-Level project. Of course, I said yes, but as busy schedules, university and other things crept up on us, the shoot ended up never happening.. until now!<br /><br />With perfect timing, we got in contact again through Facebook this year and booked a date in, and shot amongst the biggest, brightest patch of flowers I'd ever seen in the blazing sunshine. It was a real honour to shoot this beautiful dress that Fern had spent so many hours over, and I couldn't be happier with the way everything came together.<br />  <img src="http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/w541/dismantlerepair_storage3/03web_zpsf0890f46.jpg" width="690" /><img src="http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/w541/dismantlerepair_storage3/01web_zpsb13bb59b.jpg" width="690" /><img height="457px" src="http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/w541/dismantlerepair_storage3/05web_zps803ad4f9.jpg" /> <img height="457px" src="http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/w541/dismantlerepair_storage3/02web_zpsbb99dec5.jpg" /><img src="http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/w541/dismantlerepair_storage3/06web_zpsf79410aa.jpg" width="690" /><img height="474" src="http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/w541/dismantlerepair_storage3/07web_zps4d67df31.jpg" /> <img height="474" src="http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/w541/dismantlerepair_storage3/09web_zpsa957e086.jpg" /><img src="http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/w541/dismantlerepair_storage3/11web_zps23c0c313.jpg" width="690" /><br /><br />And as always, a little BTS action!<br /><br /><img src="http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/w541/dismantlerepair_storage3/bts_zpse18c6452.jpg" width="690" /><br /><br /><iframe allowtransparency="true" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" src="//www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fdismantlerepair-photo.blogspot.com%2F2013%2F07%2Fcollaboration-with-fern-blevins.html&send=false&layout=standard&width=450&show_faces=false&font=arial&colorscheme=light&action=like&height=35&appId=112365025537572" style="border: none; height: 35px; overflow: hidden; width: 450px;"></iframe>

So here we go.. the last shoot I managed to fit in before my wedding!  These are the kind of images I want to shoot forever, and I am too excited for words to start shooting more editorial and fashion themed work this year. Next week's task: shoot planning!<br /><br />Modelling for this shoot was the beautiful actress Victoria Emslie, who you may recognise from <a href="http://dismantlerepair-photo.blogspot.co.uk/2011/08/victoria.html" target="_blank">this previous shoot of mine</a>! I always love working with her and her look was just <i>perfect</i> for what I had in mind. I also collaborated with the talented Jemma Grace for the first time here and I can't wait to work with her again - she did an incredible job with the make up and hair and I couldn't be happier.<br /><br />I've been a busy lady since I've been back and have a self-portrait series and a period costume shoot on the way soon.. keep your eyes peeled!<br /><br /><b>Actress:</b> Victoria Emslie<br /><b>Hair & make up:</b> Jemma Grace<br /><b>Styling:</b> Myself<br /><br /><img src="http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/w541/dismantlerepair_storage3/_MG_8636_web_zps3bc8296a.jpg" width="343px" /> <img src="http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/w541/dismantlerepair_storage3/expanded_web_zps269e57a2.jpg" width="343px" /><img src="http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/w541/dismantlerepair_storage3/_MG_9138_web_zpse105a252.jpg" width="690" /><img src="http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/w541/dismantlerepair_storage3/_MG_8835_web_zpsc82809ad.jpg" width="343px" /> <img src="http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/w541/dismantlerepair_storage3/_MG_8776_web_zpsfee7381a.jpg" width="343px" /><br /><img src="http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/w541/dismantlerepair_storage3/_MG_9186sq_web_zpse1a23e31.jpg" width="690px" /><img src="http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/w541/dismantlerepair_storage3/_MG_8739_web_zps1a7d18cf.jpg" width="343px" /> <img src="http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/w541/dismantlerepair_storage3/_MG_9263_web_zps4e03a0c5.jpg" width="343px" /><br /><img src="http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/w541/dismantlerepair_storage3/compflat_web_zps189f921b.jpg" width="690px" /><br /><br />And I can never resist a few little behind the scenes pictures - here is one of Jemma working her magic on the lovely Victoria!<br />    <img src="http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/w541/dismantlerepair_storage3/IMG_8905_zps64fc2046.jpg" width="690" /><br /><br /><iframe allowtransparency="true" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" src="//www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fdismantlerepair-photo.blogspot.com%2F2013%2F07%2Fvictoria.html&send=false&layout=standard&width=450&show_faces=false&font=arial&colorscheme=light&action=like&height=35&appId=112365025537572" style="border: none; height: 35px; overflow: hidden; width: 450px;"></iframe>
