Holiday in London was magic and getting to know Michael + Sophia was even more brilliant! Most of the location I scouted out the day before in my video worked out in addition to some pleasant surprises. Portobello Road Market (with the colorful buildings), the Travel Bookshop (where Notting Hill was filmed) and Turquoise Island all rocked...CHEERS!!!
















Sharine:

Julie <<< What I experienced of London was only the tip of the iceberg...more reason to go back! And film more digital shorts :)

Julie Weisberg:
I've never been to London, but I got a good feel of it thru your images of these two and the locations! Nice work!

Graciete <<< The Fish Pond was madness! So good! We didn't go near the Electric Cinema, largely in part because I didn't know what/where it was :( So cool that you lived around Notting Hill :D

Graciete:
Hey, just recently discovered your blog and I have to say I absolutely loved this series of shots! I must confess to being a little biased though, as although I currently live in Portugal I spent the first 22 years of my life smack in the middle of your shoot location! How cool to see that shot of The Fish Pond chip shop! Did you get any near the Electric Cinema? Makes me almost feel kinda homesick!

Elton <<< Welcome to photography and I'm honored to influence you...hopefully it will be for the better ;)

Elton Anderson:
The 10th shot (where they are looking through the bins) is amazing!! Man, the mood of that pic is brilliant and it it truly one of many of your pics that I wish I shot. I am very new to the photography world but you are truly an influence on me thus far. Can't wait to see more.

You made the cliche red telephone booth look freakin amazing!!!!!! Not that I doubted you...no really. I wouldn't. Ever. :-)

FRED EGAN:
Ann <<< Pulling off a guard shot was a great idea...but proved a little more difficult to pull off given the locations were already shooting at. Guards are only at Buckingham Palace I believe and we were not really even close by. I'll save it for next time I shoot in London ;)
(05.29.08 02:43 PM)
ann:
did u get a chance to try a "sandwiching the guards" shot?
(05.29.08 02:03 PM)
ann:
i love these photos. her style is effortlessly classy and cool. you just pick up a very relaxed and peaceful vibe from the couple by looking at the photos. well done.
