The New Forrest is a stunning place. I have family there and each time we go down we have to shoot something. Our most recent trip was super short on time & meant we ended up shooting this set at about 6am in the morning to be able to fit everything into the schedule.

We had no idea what the weather would give on the day, but I knew that during this time of the year the chance of a low fog was high, so, that was what we planned for. We took the filters to let me shoot at a wider aperture & the speedlight to be able to add an element of contrast & crisp light when we needed it. To get the light up high we used the monopod from 3 legged thing as a lighting boom with the roundflash attached to the Cactus. It all works pretty well. Thank you to Steph for helping get the lighting just right.

As with most of my shoots, we styled this a little bit on the flow between Charlotte and my self.  A few days before we jumped on to ASOS and lined up some some cool stuff that would work.
