Let me start by saying, holy hell what an awesome weekend!
I arrived at the beautiful light house @autumnsky had booked for the shootfest (what an amazing job she did organizing this) 💕
Even on the drive up, through beautiful fields of poppies, long grass, and rugged roads. This lighthouse could be seen a mile off.
Close up it was even more beautiful than the photos! They just don't do it justice. After arriving I went for some delicious food, and started to organize my outfits for the shoots I had planned.
Saturday I woke up, Got to the lighthouse, to get ready, For my first shoot, for this I had the opportunity to work with @anthonyjohn shooting a vintage 50s themed set, pretty whites and pinks, with cheesy smiles throughout. Super excited to share a teaser for this set soon! John was so lovely to work with, really chilled, and we had a laugh over talks of vintage cameras, and musical things! Thankyou john! ☺️
Then I went to change ready for my second shoot with @matthewharris the room we shot in was really simple so we chose some beautiful bright lingerie. I adored shooting with Matthew finally after trying to arrange shooting in between surgery for over a year! Again so wonderful to work with, another shoot full of laughing and trying to fight my leg off after deciding I would shoot a set without it!Heres a wonderful teaser from this set to come! Thankyou Matt for being so awesome to work with 😁
I then hopped my way down the swirly lightout stairs to change for my 3 shoot, where I got to work with the beautiful and colourful @aislingdee we did a pajarma/bath shoot, using a delicious lush bath bomb. And laughing over the fact I ran the cold water for way too long. (IT WAS SO COLD) I am so happy with the outcome of this set too, id never shot a bath set before, and I was super happy with the images aisling managed to get, and loved the relaxed and fun atmosphere whilst she climbed everywhere to get great angles. Thankyou aisling💕

After shooting 3 sets on the Saturday, I felt it was time to fill my tummy with delicious food, and a relaxed walk along the seafront with bubblegum and candy floss ice cream. MMMMM!
Sunday came along way too quickly, I spent the morning eating more food 🙈🍟and set off to the lighthouse, once arriving I pinned up my hair into victory rolls, and got ready to shoot a pink and fluffy set with @autumnsky in the most beautiful room with a gorgeous view (only it included climbing Around 104 stairs) BUT WE MADE IT! Autumn had loads of great ideas and wonderful arty shots throughout the set, including props (though I don't want to give away too much🙈) I had so much fun with her throughout shooting this set! And can't wait for you to all see it 💕🍾
I then had time to shoot one last time again With aisling🎈 We climbed more stairs right to the top of the lighthouse, both nearly cried with fear, but I again had an amazing time shooting with her, the lighting throughout the set was so bright and uplifting 💕Here's a snap of the struggle getting back down the stairs! 📸
I then packed up and made my way home!
I had the most awesome weekend for my FIRST EVER SHOOTFEST, meeting so many wonderful and beautiful ladies / photographers! Seeing everybody else's sets too is so exciting, hoping to see quite a few ladies turn pink! 😍
