Nicola & David’s maternity shoot in Folkestone, England

Saturday, July 26th, 2008

I met Nicola Dove, one of the most warm, caring and awesome photographers, when I was studying photography in London.  I was assisting a friend of hers, Simon, and he introduced us when I popped into their office one afternoon.  Nicola was sorting through some images for an exhibition called ‘Facade’, and I remember looking at one of them, and my eyes welling up with tears.  Something in the way that she shoots, captures so much emotion and energy.  I assisted her on a few shoots, one which took us to Japan in 2006, and we’ve remained good friends ever since.  Please have a look at her website, she is incredibly talented and constantly amazes me with her ideas.  I feel incredibly blessed that I could photograph her and gorgeous hubby David, before little Tommy was born.
