After shooting Clare and Andrew’s wedding at Cambridge Cottage in Kew I arranged to drive across town to take some engagement shots of Clare (a different one) and her fiance Tim who are getting married later this year at St Mary’s Church in Battersea. These were taken close to where Clare and Tim live in Battersea along The Thames.
You can see Chelsea power station in some of the images which is not as well known as its famous counterpart at Battersea but still interesting to photograph. But it was really difficult working in such harsh light particularly as the sun was beginning to drop. Perhaps another 30 minutes later and it would’ve dropped close enough to the horizon, what we call in the industry ‘The Golden Hour’ – perfect quality of light.
Nevertheless I am really pleased with these results. You sometimes have to work harder in these situations and at times this type of light can be used to your advantage. Anyhow some favourites can be seen below and please feel free to add any comments.
Thanks again Clare and Tim for showing me around.
