I + S // West Bay

Couples shoot

So i’ve come to the decision that weddings are a lot easier to create a story than a couple shoot. The wedding day is happening in front of you and you as the photographer are riding the documentary wave. A couple shoot requires all of the creative juice you have available. Maybe i just need more practice. If you and your loved one would like to invite me out for the afternoon, feel free to get in touch. adambealephotography@gmail.com

Imogen + Scott //

The sun was out whilst i was driving to the coast and i was getting excited with the prospect of creative light and shadows. I arrived and the sun disappeared. Typical. I had an awesome afternoon with these two. Never felt awkward once. We met at the carpark by the cliffs. Then went for a little perusal around the mini flee market in the walk through Antique shop. We then went for a few laps around West Bay stopping for a coffee a long the way.

The sun was setting quickly but we unfortunately were not treated to anything colours as the sky stayed grey until dusk. To finish off we headed to the arcade to get rid of some change, or in Imogen’s case change all of Scotts money to 2p coins :-)))))).

// So who wants to find out more about I + S??

.

How long have you guys been love birds and where did you meet?

.

Just over a year ago we met and have been basically inseparable since. We met a few years ago but didn’t cross paths again until meeting at a mutual friends gig. The rest is history.

.

Where was your first date?

.

Our first proper date was at The West Bay in West Bay. We went for a drink and talked about our Hogwarts houses, mutual love for Star wars and our interests in pop punk. We then solidified our rapidly flourishing relationship with a super romantic trip to Bruges together.

.

// So for this couple shoot i tried to be clever by involving a simple game of MR and MRS to spice things up.

.

This ended up being the bane of my life. Trying to create online forms for both of them and working out how this would possibly work the night before whilst also getting my head around my newly acquired photography kit.

My plan was to get these guys in a nice pose and then read an answer prompting spontaneous laughter. As it happened i didn’t need to. Considering these guys have only been together a year, they know each other remarkably well.

Heres a couple of examples..

.

What is your celebrity crush?

.

Imogen– Eddie Redmayne

Scott– Jennifer Laurence

Both guessed each others bang on.

.

If she was only allowed one item to take to a dessert island, what would it be?

.

Martin the Elephant.

I had to google this!! No idea.

.

Fav body part of each other?

.

Imogen– Eyes

Scott- Bum

Both guessed each others again.

.

// And my personal favourite….

.

Whats his worst habit?

.

His worst habit is being a complete tornado in the kitchen. He’ll be making cereal and somehow there’s soup on the ceiling.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha!!

I actually lol’ed at this.

.

Anyway i’ve dribbled on far too much and i doubt many people have read this far. If you have thanks. This is not my full time job and takes a lot of effort. More than i ever imagined.

Have a great weekend.
