Aimee

Good Morning :) At least its morning where I am, the suns not far from coming up and the there's an autumnal feel in the air these days. But these photos go back to the summer, when Wimbledon was on in the UK.

So back to warmer times this is a shoot I did with Aimee Simpson in Leicester. Aimee is another really good model that I've been lucky to work with and a very talented lady.

Initially I was going to post the shots with the sun visor and strawberry first as an eye catching thumbnail on Hive, but as I selected the images to post I've changed to the following image which I just think has a lovely quirky naturalness to it. It was completely posed to be fair! but it does have a certain spontaneity about it that I like, I hope you do too..

The following images were why I initially selected these images to post today. As mentioned above, the images were taken in the summer when Wimbledon was in full swing, so the sun visor and strawberrys were a natural fit. For a Wimbledon style shot, I probably could have gone for a green background, but the red worked so much better with Aimee's hair, the colour of the strawberry and visor, and to be fair, a green background would just look like a green screen without any special effects!!! I hope you like these images too..

As a photographer I try to mix what I do in my shots, I've done still life, some macro work, lightpainting and I enjoy a good model shoot. If you'd like to check out any of my other work I'm on Facebook, or you can find me on Instagram under neilru75

Thanks very much for looking

Kind Regards, Neil
