Jen and Leo have kindly allowed me to post some pictures from our recent photo ‘engagement’ shoot thingbob around bracknell to celebrate their togetherness (and as an apology for not being brave enough to take their wedding photos!)

080223_350d_img_2394.jpg

we started near one of the many underpasses.  as they posed a flourescent oomer-zoomer whizzed by much to everyone’s delight

then we divided in to a bookshop for a photo with Lola

080223_350d_img_2412.jpg

we looked a bald mannequins

080223_350d_img_2423.jpg

and stood in front of signs with hidden wedding messages

jen ran in to iceland to stand by this sign, this time symbolising the courtship phase of their relationship.

and here’s a wedding dress in the Oxfam shop window, worn by a green faced mannequin

and a giant diamond ring

and this was a bit weird from a perspective point of view.  they are standing above some goths.

080223_350d_img_2518.jpg

we did do a few sensible shots too.

marriage is a journey etc.

080223_350d_img_2555.jpg

and finally we ended in this beautiful garden.

080223_350d_img_2599.jpg

we ended up with a couple of hundred shots, which i narrowed down to about a hundred which were ok.  these are just a selection.

thanks jen and leo for letting me experiment on you and being such good fun !

if anyone else would like a funkypancake photoshoot – let me know. it only takes an hour.
 reasonable prices apply (probably).

running in the family

jane and esther did the family fun run things yesterday morning.

080302_350d_img_2835.jpg

they got silver and gold blankets when they finished which was all you could ever wish for !

080302_350d_img_2843.jpg

then jane went on to run the Reading half marathon and did very well indeed
