We had a great day on Saturday at Nancy and Carl’s wedding. The day started at the Lace Market hotel and then onto Thrumpton Hall. Despite the cold windy weather everybody had an amazing time. Nancy and her sister Rosie own McArtney’s Catering and if you are a bride reading this, and want the best catered food for your wedding, don’t look anywhere else. The food is amazing. Nancy and Carl are awesome and I hope you guys have a beautiful honeymoon. Thanks to Debbie Knox and the team at Thrumpton Hall for coordinating a flawless day. Here are a few Crash-Art signature images from the wonderful day.

No wonder she was cold, she didn’t have any clothes on. Great job as usual Crash, I love the way you have used the normally distracting items to make interesting backgrounds with the shallow depth of field. Reminds me of Annabel Williams and how she uses them. I especially like the one from through the window and the one with the drill. Who are Maria and Cathy?

Crash can I PLEASE come out on a shoot with you? Your work is brilliant and you seem non stop with wanting to excel and take things to the next level. I’m located in Lincoln so not to far away. Do you do workshops? Tyler

Crash,

Which Ezybox do you recommend as I noticed they have two? Which one did you use for the shoot? The photos are great, hopefully one day I will be able to create images like that.

Thanks,
DB

Love the exposures!! So could you dissect a shot more - I need to make myself shoot more in these kind of elements - but where to start

I would like to see a blog that a great photog (like yourself) dissects the shot completely

Camera settings, off camera flash, power ratio etc…

Some really amazing work here! Her eyes stand out so amazingly in 3 4 & 6!
Also, i LOOOOVE #5 - wow!

Yesterday I was in the countryside village of Kinoulton with fellow photographers Maria and Cathy. The location was a derelict farm and outbuildings. We were armed with our cameras a Lastolite Tri-Grip reflector and a Lastolite Ezybox for the Canon 580ex II speedlites. Despite the cold and STRONG wind our model Rachel was a champion. It was so cold and windy that we had to shoot for 5 mins and let her warm up in a winter jacket for 10 mins before moving on to the next location. I’m happy with how the photos turned out considering how bad the weather was. Test shoots are great for practicing new lighting techniques etc, it’s also a great creative exercise that definitely inspires everyone involved. Anyway, I hope you like the images and until next time keep shooting. As usual, comments are appreciated.

Friday I was at Woodborough Hall photographing the wedding of Nicole and Paul. We started the day in the bridal suite at the Hall and then left for the ceremony at Lambley village church. After the confetti at the church we headed back to Woodborough Hall for the reception. It was a great day, the weather was perfect. Nicole and Paul are super cool and I really enjoyed photographing their special day. A big thanks to Cathi Higgins from Oehlers Photography for assisting me and Tillyboo Events for coordinating another flawless Woodborough Hall wedding.

Here are a few Crash-Art signature images from the day.

Saturday was the wedding of Tania and Simon. We started the day at Tania’s house for bridal preparation shots and then onto the ceremony at the village church in Bingham. From there we all headed to Woodborough Hall for the reception. It was a great day despite the strong winds and on and off rain. Here are a few Crash-Art signature images from the day. I want to thank Sarah and Natalie from Tillyboo Events for coordinating a flawless day.
