Martin Taylor MBE - THE Acoustic Guitarist of his Generation

A few weeks back we had a shoot with Martin Taylor MBE. Yup, that’s right, multi-award winning, world famous guitarist and composer Martin Taylor, the same guy who’s collaborated with Jeff Beck, Bill Wyman and George Harrison to name but a few!!

It was a pleasure to meet him and to have been asked to take his photo. He’s extremely down to earth and alot of laughs were had on the night.

Unfortunately we didn’t get out to our chosen outdoor location due to weather issues but am overall really happy with the studio shots, Martin is too! Clean, simple and quick shots were the order of the day.

Martin has 2 new Signature Series guitars available for sale which can be seen in the photos above, they are gorgeous, I reckon I might be interested in purchasing one myself.

A huge and enormous and massive thanks go out to Stef and Keith at Rainbow Music for setting all this up and hope to do it all again soon.

Taylor

Taylor came to us looking to kick off her portfolio with some great shots and to see if it would be something she enjoyed and would like to take further. For someone who hasn’t modelled before she was the most natural and relaxed i’ve ever seen, obviously been watching way too much Britains Next Top Model. This is one of my favourite shoots so far, getting out of the studio and exploring new locations, I find it a much more natural and rewarding experience for us and the model. Even with the colder weather we’re looking forward to stepping out more on shoots, we just have to find some new locations around Dundee and Angus, anyone have any ideas? 

These were shot in Carnoustie and Westhaven with … Canon 5d Mark II  //  Canon 35mm 1.4L  //  Canon 85mm 1.2L  //  Canon 135mm 2.0L  //  canon 430ex flash

Oh and we have a new website - please check it out and maybe book a shoot yourself. www.burfly.co.uk

Elaine Shoot 2 - 27/02/11

Worth waiting for? I’m pretty stoked about this shoot. The 85L is hard to get to grips with, quite a few images not as sharp as i’d wish but the creamy backgrounds and general look and colour of the images are more than worth it. Again all shot with just one light setup.

Check out the whole shoot over in our photo diary and come say hi on facebook.

The Fenwicks

View the whole set

Great shoot with the Fenwick family from Carnoustie on Sunday at Baxter park (pretty much the only place we could get to given the snow chaos) A birthday/xmas gift for mum and we hope she likes the results as much as we do. Kirsty and Rhianne were great sports and great posers to boot as you can see from the small selection above.

Our first shoot in the snow and our first with the legendary 85mm f1.2 L. This lens may stay permanently attached (if it weren’t for the 135L of course)

We’ve been taking a huge break of late with the arrival of Jack and should be back after the new year so will be taking bookings. Looking to take on much more family, engagement and couple sessions next year too.
