Photographed with Hasselblad, 50mm, Ilford FP4 at Llangollen in North Wales. Clothes were borrowed from an Antique Shop and are all authentic Victorian. I did the models sister wedding, now all the family have been Australian residents for some time. For train enthusiasts, the trains still, and neaby waterfalls and countryside are well worth a visit.

Although I used a ‘fill in’ flash for lighting quite a lot, as you can see experimenting with natural lighting can produce dramatic and emotional photography. Producing a 3D effect by using both apature and lens produces a very small depth of field. Focusing can be l little tight on the face to keep it in focus but results speak for themselves.
