Hey everyone,
So it's been a little while since I've blogged, and the black and white post is coming soooon!
Some great news...If you've seen my Facebook page you'll have seen that I got a FIRST for my documentary project :D (<-- my face) I was so unbelievably happy when I found out in my end of year tutorial and just so glad that for a project I put a lot of work into it, I got a really good grade to reflect how I felt about the project!
Moving on from that, I have been using my camera, so I am keeping up with at least one shoot a week! I've been photographing some of the drama and dance assessments at the LPAC here in Lincoln (my boyfriend also works there!) and I'm sure I'll post some of them too when I have finished processing them.
I am second shooting at a wedding next week - which is a first for me (well second, but my first was with my boyfriend dad, who is awesome!) and I am really looking forward to it. I love shooting weddings by myself, because I get into the "zone" but it's going to be good to learn from someone else, which in turn will help me improve the weddings I shoot myself!
I have also been planning a lot of shoots for the summer. Again featuring Nikki and Bella - but I am also looking to work with other models, so if you are a model or know anyone who would be interested please get in contact! I will be posting up details of the shoots pretty soon, so keep an eye out for them! I think they should be pretty fun, and I will more than likely use them for projects for the third year at uni!
Hopefully I won't leave it so long between posts this time - and new work should be up soon!

Pure
Hi everyone!
Today's post is a selection of the photographs from Pure - I just wanted to say thank you for Gemma for letting me photograph within the boutique! It was literally so perfect for not only my project, but for my friend Amy to try on some beautiful dresses!
Anyway onto my favourite photographs!
I've walked past Pure before while I was home in Norwich and always thought it looked so beautiful! I, obviously, am not getting married (not just yet!) but this was definitely one of the best bridal boutiques I had seen, and I really wanted to be able to have a look around at the beautiful dresses.
So when I knew the subject of my documentary project I began to think of which bridal dress store to pick to ask if I were able to photograph within their store. Pure jumped into my mind, but as I live in Lincoln during term time I had to wait until I was able to go home to Norwich to photograph there!
I called Gemma and we arranged a time for not only me to photograph, but for my lovely friend Amy (Seen above on the left) to try on wedding dresses, as she is engaged! It worked out as a lovely catch up for us, including Nikki (middle) and Bella (right) as we had all gone to sixth form together!
We all had a browse through the dresses and Amy picked which five or so, she wanted to try on. The beauty above is the first one and our reaction was great! We all loved the dress! Even Nikki had a little tear because Amy looked so beautiful in the dress!
I must admit though that this is still my favourite dress that she tried on and after reviewing the photographs of all dresses this one stands out to me the most! So simple, classy and pretty, with just enough detail to make it just stunning!
The next dress she tried on was a beauty too! It had a detachable train - however this one did not button onto the dress, but it tied around her waist with a lovely bow (which can be matched to the colour of the bridesmaid's dresses!) I loved this one, the lace, the detail of the train and the versatility was perfect. The photograph above has to be one of my favourite that I took throughout the whole shoot!
Again this is the same dress as the previous photograph, but from behind to see the train. The dress was paired with a beautiful veil, to match the lace in the dress.
Overall it was such a great experience, not only did I get to see my wonderful friend try on dresses but this will really complete my project!
So thank you again to Pure but also thank you to Amy, Nikki and Bella! I had a wonderful time with you ladies!
And men - if you don't care about dresses then not to worry, Pure also stock a range of suits too!
You'll find these in the Groom Room - complete with comfy chairs!
So that's all for this blog post, I imagine the next one up will be a more in depth look at Clare & Martin's wedding.
See you then,
Georgia

Sneak Peek - Martin & Clare
Hey everyone,
Here's a sneak peek of Martin and Clare's wedding photographs from yesterday! I have spent a good hour and a half looking through all the photographs I took and made a very long and lovely list of ones that I will edit!
But for now, until I am ready to post a set of finished photographs is two sneak peeks!
The new Mr & Mrs Edwards!
I love the moody sky!
So that's it for now, but there will be more appearing up here on the blog, but also on my Facebook page.
The next post will probably be from the bridal boutique, as I am editing those photographs now to include in my final documentary work!

Libby Ferris Flowers
Hi everyone,
Here are the photographs from my shoot yesterday at Libby Ferris Flowers here in Norwich. Libby was lovely, as were her team! So I just want to say thank you to them for letting me photograph them while they were creating bouquets, button holes and corsages for a wedding.
While Libby was creating the bouquet seen above, we had a really love chat about what she does, and why! She is very highly focused on quality, not just of her flowers (which are beautiful) but of her service to her customers. I really admire this, as it is too easy to not focus on giving each and every customer the attention they deserve.
But Libby and her lovely ladies are wonderful at this. The care and attention I not only saw, but also discussed with Libby, was amazing and something I always try to strive to with the way I work.
I also really enjoyed watching and photographing their beautiful creations! With ease they created bouquets and button holes, and I was very impressed!
So if you are getting married, or simply want to treat a loved one to a stunning bouquet and you live in Norwich definitely pay a visit to Libby and her team!
Wahoo, another shoot complete! I'm very much looking forward to Monday and getting to photograph at Pure, not only do I love weddings, but I really love wedding dresses!
The photographs for that will probably be up on Tuesday, as straight after that shoot I am heading back to University in Lincoln!

Excited! Bridal dresses, flowers and old friends!
Hi guys,
I'm having such a good day - and I'm pretty excited right now! Not only do I have a shoot tomorrow with Libby Ferris Flowers but I have just confirmed today a shoot with Pure.
They are a bridal boutique located in Norwich, not only was their manageress, Gemma, lovely when I spoke to her on the phone, but they stock the most beautiful bridal gowns I have seen. I am very excited to be photographing there, because not only is it really going to be amazing for my documentary project, and a shoot I really wanted to do, but it gives me a chance to meet up with some of my lovely friends who will be modelling for me, just as they did while we were in sixth-form. But with a difference, Amy is engaged!
With the Super Man logo is Amy, the bride! She's holding up Nikki, who you can also see in the photograph below.
One of my favourite photographs I have ever taken of Nikki!
And finally Bella, I love this photograph of her!
I'm really looking forward to this shoot and I cannot wait for this project to be over, not because it's been a lot of work, I just can't wait to see all the photographs together in the wedding style album I will be creating.
I'll post the photographs I take tomorrow on here as soon as they are finished, and of course my shoot for next week will be from Pure! So exciting.

Oops!
Hi guys,
So no shoot last week, sorry! It was fairly busy towards the end of the week, Ferenc and I drove home on Thursday, and we will be back for another week!
However the lack of shoot last week will be made up for this week. I have two shoots confirmed for this week with, Libby Ferris Flowers and also the Norwich Registry office - my documentary project is really coming together now!
I am currently trying to arrange shoots with a bridal boutique and also a jeweller, these two would make my project really complete! Luckily for me a close friend is engaged, so I have a model already!
So once I have finished those shoots they will be up on here, along with the shoot I have been planning with my sister for the last couple of days

Washingborough Hall
Hi everyone!
Today's post is the photographs from a shoot I went on today at Washingborough Hall Hotel for, you guessed it, my documentary project!
Yesterday I made a lovely long list of things I have to do for my University work, from work for this project (including the list of 20 other shoots I have to do for this project) to writing my dissertation proposal and work for my experimental project. This list isn't scary as it would normally be, and it is all very achievable!
It felt great to be able to tick off one item from my list - this shoot!
I really feel as if this documentary project is coming together, and it is by far my favourite project that I have done so far at University. It is so close to what I want to do when I leave, so it is fun to have the time to photograph a lot of the elements from an industry that I love, and want to work within.
I just want to say thank you to Lucy from Washingborough Hall Hotel for letting me photograph your beautiful hotel as part of my project! I hope to photograph a wedding here some day!
So this is my shoot for this week, I'm so glad to having kept the promise to myself to do at least one shoot a week. I'm hoping once this project is over I will be able to do more portrait orientated shoots, as that is where my passion is!
If you haven't seen my previous post, please check it out. If you want a Free Photosoot and you live in Norwich or Lincoln, please get it touch! All you have to do is let me feature you in my documentary project.

Free Photoshoot?
Hi everyone!
Do you live in Norwich or Lincoln? Would you like a free photoshoot with me? Then get in touch!
(That sounds like such a terrible advert!)
But seriously, if you have been reading my blog you would have seen the post I have put up about my documentary project - where I am documenting each element that goes into making a wedding. From the flowers, ring shopping, dress fittings, ceremony spaces etc the list is pretty much endless!
However what I am missing from my photographs are PEOPLE! I am looking for couples to photograph in relation to this project, so I am probably going to stage ring shopping, but I also want couples who are DIY-ing their decorations, or invitations, or who are having a stag/hen party!
In return for letting me photograph you for my project I am offering a free pre-wedding/engagement style shoot - and even if you aren't getting married you can still help! As long as you're willing to pose for me for my project, I am offering a couples photoshoot - so you can have some nice photographs of you both together!
I am in Lincoln till the middle of next week, when I will be returning home to Norwich for around two weeks. So if you live in either place please do get in touch!
Thank you!
See you next shoot (Which once again will be for this project!)
