An unexpected moment again for today's photo. Was about to give up for the day when I spotted a glamourously dressed couple being photographed on the steps of St Paul's. After the photographer finished I asked the girl if she would mind posing for a couple of minutes for me, which she was happy to do. Not the shot I would have expected at all today, but then again that seems to be the beauty of this project.
Don't you just love it when you are in the right place at the right time!!! The shots you get when you know the opportunity isn't going to come up again are really special. Such a beautiful shot. Love the colour pop.
This is so wonderful! Love the composition and processing! Must have been something in the air on the 16th, I was on my way to lunch when I spotted my couple having their photo taken by another photographer!
@tillycarter Thank you Krista, I was very lucky with the timing. Thank you for the fav too, that's much appreciated, especially from someone who's own photography I much admire :)
@gigiz Haha...good luck getting much done in that frock, not sure how housework would go! Thanks for the tip on the theme, I didn't realise that, so i've tagged it now.
Fav...I read your words as the photo was loading. I expected to see two people standing together in a typical couple pose. Wow... What a pleasant surprise to see this magazine model type shot. How lucky to come across such a beautifully dressed woman so willing to pose.
@kwind Thanks so much for the nice comment and the fav :-) It was indeed an unexpected and lucky find... My Serendipity moment ! I almost walked away after taking a few shots of them all doing their own photoshoot, but I didn't have any good pics and it seemed lik such a good opportunity, so I thought, why not just ask, they can only say no, but I explained my project to them and the girl didn't mind at all.
@paulaw thanks Paula, very pleased to make the popular page, feels like a bit of an honour with so many good photographers on this site. I also noticed a new info section yesterday, a featured section, I didn't think I'd seen it before either.
Noticed this on the Recently Popular page - beautiful shot. Love it! Wonderful pose by the model and those surroundings suit perfectly - as for that dress - stunning! A Fav for me! :)
Stunning shot! Instant fav! Found via "suggestions" page. Love the composition and splash of colour of her dress. What were they doing there? (Haven't read all the comments so you may have replied previously).
@kwiksilver Hi Gillian, Thanks for the fav and your comment, really appreciate you stopping by to look at my page. The couple were there on a photoshoot of some description but I'm not sure why, although I have seen this before in the city where a glamorously dressed couple are photographed in romantic poses, so perhaps its for a post wedding album of some sort.
@hettie Thanks for the fav Hettie :-) It was really nice of her to stop for a couple of minutes. Wish I'd taken her email address now to send her the picture and the feedback she has received on this shot.
