A Little Variety Never Hurt...


I'm a bad blogger... a bad, bad blogger... I need to receive 5 lashes from the cat o' nine tails for blog negligence! But, hey, I'm back!

Various shots from the Leisure Centre Sessions
So, what has kept me so busy? Daily family life, for the most part... but, a few fun wee photography projects have also contributed. I second shot at a wedding, for the first time in a couple of years. (I have already progressed a stack since the last wedding I shot, but I found that I still have so much to learn.)

My biggest recent project, though, was a great opportunity to put almost everything I have ever learned into practice... and that was when I was called in to shoot some promotional images for  local City-run leisure facilities. 

Those were, quite possibly, the most fun I have had shooting in a while - based on the sheer range of things I was asked to shoot; from trainer head shots to figure skaters in action, senior social activities to pre- school playtimes... quite the variety!!! Of course, each activity was in a different area, with different lighting and very different movement... so each had to treated very differently in both the creative approach and the technicalities.

The only problem with a shoot like that? So many different scenarios meant a lot more equipment in tow! I need a rolling bag... or a burly man servant!! (Ah... yes... more to add to my wish list... will it ever stop?!)
