at night time

After the party (please read this post if you haven't already) when most people had left, and some Mums were still talking, I snapped photos of Sarah, Shiloh and Johannah in their formal dresses around their land and in the end, it turned into a mini night photo shoot! I had never done a shoot in the dark before, or with formally dressed girls, but it was quite fun over all! Sarah had two horses in their paddock and I must say the addition of such lovely animals was amazing. (even if they didn't like the flash!)



Love this photo of Sarah.

Shiloh was a natural model for taking photos of. She knew exactly what to do.

And it helped that she was drop dead gorgeous too!



I had a little trouble with the darkness in the photos, the horses kept running away from the flash and the camera wasn't snapping very well because of the lighting, but a good effort I think for my first go. I learnt things to do and not to do and I'll remember them for next time.
Also a big thank you to the girls for being patient, fun to snap and looking just plain pretty!
Tell me, what did you think?

And I also went ahead and entered Lucia's photo challenge with one of my favourites from this shoot!



I think this shows just about as much love as you can get from a girl to her pet! I happen to know for a fact that Sarah loves her horse to pieces!

So go ahead and link up to lucia, etc. photo challenge // black and white love. It's lots of fun.


Love Moi xoxo

    1. You're most welcome, Jessica. I'm so glad I'm following it now so I can keep up with your posts : )
      I'm glad you don't think the lighting is too bad...I wasn't sure. These cameras can be pretty fiddly at night time!

  4. Wow, that looks like such a fun photoshoot! I love the idea of doing it at night, though, I can imagine how difficult it would be because of flash and all. Great job! :)
