Back to shooting

Andreea came back to Canterbury, he didn't stay for long but I managed to take advantage of that and shoot with her the new idea that I had - obsession with a new person

I had previously talked to someone from House of Agnes which is near Sainsbury’s in Canterbury to see if we could shoot there and the lady from reception, probably the owner of the hotel, was really nice to me and said that it wouldn’t be a problem. So we had a place to shoot which was very nice. House of Agnes has got rooms with different ambient: there is a Venice room that has got that kind of style, Canterbury room, Tokyo room, Paris room and many more. They are lovely.

Me and my friend made the plan for that day to shoot at the hotel. We called a friend to help us as we needed a guy to be the “husband”. After a couple of hours of preparations we were finally on our way to the hotel. When we got there, the lady again was friendly and very nice considering the fact that a stranger who pretended to be a student wanted to take images in her hotel. She didn’t ask anything about the shoot just told us that we have the first floor free, 4 rooms that we could use. That was a blast. We had: the Canterbury room, Tokyo room, Venice room and the Boston room. We tried in all of them the apart from the Canterbury room as it didn’t really fit the concept, plus it was dark as well. Venice room was very elegant but in the end the best images were in the Boston room. The simple design suited the idea very well I think.
We tried various poses, both models were great and very expressive which was very helpful. This kind of models is every photographer’s dream.  I chose a simple dress for her, more like a housewife dress with flowers and just a bit of colour and for him I wanted a more elegant style as he represents the man in the house that brings money, more like a business man.
