Here's an image of the South Terrace, taken from almost the same spot as last week's image with the snow:

What a difference a week makes...
Rushton Hall looked superb in it's wintery glory in the snow last week (see previous post), and it looked equally superb yesterday with all the snow gone. It really stood out against another glorious blue sky.

Shooting in a Winter Wonderland
When Sarah Vivienne phoned me yesterday and asked if I fancied a shoot at Rushton Hall in the snow I thought she was mad (!), particularly as the forecast for Monday night/Tuesday morning sounded horrendous and I thought it would be a bit of a challenge getting there.
However...
Monday night's weather was a lot calmer than expected and today has been a gloriously sunny day, with a fantastic blue sky, and enough deep, crisp snow to give the grounds of Rushton Hall a lovely fairytale look.
And, at very short notice, Sarah had rustled up a couple of gorgeous models, Robyn and Lisa, for the shoot, so I'm glad she talked me in to it.
Here are some of my early favourites, starting with Rushton Hall in it's wintery glory:
Robyn:
And Lisa, who ended up as a snow angel, amazing (!):
Big, big thanks to Robyn and Lisa who did a fantastic job in the snow in the new range of thermal wedding dresses (if only!) and to Sarah, for talking me in to it (how could I doubt your sanity...).

Bridal shoot at Kettering Park Hotel
After the shoot with Lucy at Harrowden Hall the week before last this Sunday saw a bridal shoot at Kettering Park Hotel. Jess and Rob were the models, with make up expertly applied by Natalie Godefroy.
With the hotel hosting a bridal showcase later in the month, on 22 February, the aim was to get some fresh new images, and it provided an ideal opportunity to try out various locations in the hotel without the time constraints that there can be with a real wedding. It also gave me the ideal opportunity to have a play with my recently acquired video light.

I'm not sure that Jess and Rob quite realised what they'd let themselves in for (!), but they did a great job.
Here are a few of the images:
