Photography Parlour G2G: Sylvie

Sylvie, By the Water

This was my first full shoot with a model at the G2G.  Sylvie is a stunning model, whose dark features and olive skin are a combination of German and Bulgarian ancestry. She was kitted out in a beautiful vintage wedding dress, gloves and matching accessories, courtesy of Vintage Dresses.  A bride in a beautiful gown is always centre of attention and this was no exception.

We headed along the harbour then caught the little ferry (with bemused ferry master!) that took us over the SS Great Britain, we snapped a few pics there before being ushered on by the powers that be.  The sun was particularly harsh during this shoot and Sylvie has the longest false eyelashes on, which looked stunning, but lead to dark eyes on some of the pics.  Still, I like this set of photographs for the spirit that they show, thanks to the energy that Sylvie put into her work.

Photographing at a shootout is a very unique experience, some groups took it in turns to direct the model, in others it was a complete free for all, which I’m sure is good paparazzi training.  Sylvie took this in her stride.  She is a fantastically proactive model, who was very responsive to direction.  It’s always great to work with a model who enjoys being photographed,  which is no mean feat with ten cameras pointed at you!
