portrait photography wollaton park nottingham

Today was something totally new for me not so much the on location shoot but how this was done.
I posted an event on my Facebook fan page offering a reduce price on location shoot mainly aimed for families who wanted more relaxed portraits of their children as they played out side in the open.
I was booked by 3 families who were very keen to have some fun with an on location shoot in the grounds of wollaton hall, in fact my 3 families were so keen i must admit i did try to postpone the shoot due to the rain that was poring down my windows at home but much to my surprise every booking i had said they were more than happy to be photographed in the rain !!!!!.
The first booking was at 12 with the last shoot finishing at 3pm as i arrived at lunchtime the rain was coming down fast and furious my first booking did turn up late which went quite well as the rain had now stopped, by the time we had started the 1st shoot my second booking was already here ready this was when everything changed and we all collectively decided to bundle the whole day together and make the most of the sunshine that was peering through the clouds so every shoot that was booked were all together in the rear grounds of wollaton hall it was like a football team running wild in Wollaton.
What a totally fantastic day to spend with such wonderful people who really did get to know each other and worked together to obtain some fantastic photography images.
All the best
