Like i mentioned b4..
I had already agreed to do a photoshoot..
I was a bit apprehensive..
in a way i just couldnt be bothered..
but i felt obliged so i made my way down there.
Amy treated me to lunch..
which sucks coz she took that as repaying the favour.
I would have enjoyed the repayment if she just paid for the train ticket down..
which actually she mentioned she would do b4..
when we dicussed me doing photoshoots for her.
oh well..
i didnt say anything..
and she cant read my mind..(thank god)
So after that we went back to her place..
and i had a gander at the photoshoot she did the nite b4.
It was by a different photographer..
a previous graduate of KIAD.
I didnt know who the hell he was..
and actually i wasnt too impressed with his images..
not that im a great photographer..
but i guess she was hyping him up loads..
so when it came to it..
it was a bit of an anit-climax.
I didnt really know what she wanted..
but i kinda had an idea in my head..
be of a cliche of gothic..
but i didnt really have much research for the shoot.
:S
She got all dressed up and made up..
while i had a quick toy with her DSLR.
Managed to get Sandy to come along for the ride..
she was honourary assistant, stylish, and bag carrier.
We headed over to the Cathedral..
it was a nice walk..
seeing as i hadnt been there in a long time.
We went roudn the back way..
and lucky too coz there was a location just around the corner.
After a little hiatus about nothing..
we started the shoot rite there.
Getting comfortable with her camera was a challenge..
its interface has the worst design ever..
and becoz i had to shoot daylight..
i really had to push the camera..
but its cool coz the lighting kinda suited the feel of the shoot.
After a little bit i started to feel a lot better about the shoot..
so i relaxed a bit and just took control of the shoot.
The light was fading like crazy tho..
and by the time we finished the first location..
it was almost too dark to shoot outside.
When we left the second location..
we found the side door was well lit by the floods that lite up the cathedral at nite.
We stayed there for quite a bit..
getting in peoples way as they tried to get in.
The organ playing was really atmospheric..
and we were all a bit caught up in the whole mood..
so that helped loads.
The final location was the small entrance to the side of the big arse main door.
I had to cram myself into the corner jsut to get enuf angle to fit her in the shot.
It came out pretty well..
and with the sky clearing the waning light worked fairly well.
We were rushed out by the priest..
and so we just ended the shoot..
coz we'd taken about an hour and a half.
While Amy put on all the other outfits i thought i'd take more photos..
to my surprise it wasnt that bad..
the camera managed to record alot more information than i expected..
so the images were actually usable.
After teh shoot i bumped into Dionne..
shes from my town..
so its really cool to see her..
even tho i'v only ever seen her at uni.
had a quick chat with Nia on Dionne's fone..
which was also a nice surprise..
and then i walked back to Amy's to get the images.
Just b4 getting there i saw Zara..
shes looking all fashionable and stuff.
Crazy.
Yea she looks good..
i should have just walked with her..
that way i would have found out where exactly she lives..
and also had a bit more time to catch up..
but i just went back to Amy's and sorted out the iamges..
made sure she gave me them all on disk.
ALL.
haha..
only im allowed to edit out images.
:P
I then made plans to see Tri..
but was going gym for a bit..
or more like two hours.
So i went to see if i could find Zara but she was having a candle lit dinner for two..
so i just spoke to her on the fone for a little..
and did a bit of catch up.
While on the phone..
all of a sudden Dionne was in my face..
scared the hell outta me..
but it was fun..
coz i went into her apartment..
which she just so happens to share with Nia..
and chilled out for a good while.
They were both out of it tho..
One was stoned and the other was deprived of sleep..
so it was just a load of non sense..
but im not complaining..
coz i think i needed that.
I left them to try and make food..
to meet Tri just outside the Tap.
Its been ages since i went there..
so it was interesting..ish.. haha.
Should have just chilled around Tri's for a bit really..
that way i would have got in for free.
The evening was quite an enjoyable one..
and i think it deserves its own post..
coz it was a pretty long nite.
I'll upload a edit of the images..
nobody cept Sid will wanna see them all anyways..
U and all ur uni mates anyways.
I guess i should give them something to critisise for once..
its only fair rite?
hehe.
They're all low res..
so they arent that clear.
Sorry.
