Boudoir Shoots at St Giles

Fi and I spent a really enjoyable day doing a shoot at St Giles Hotel, Norwich, last week.  It's such a great venue to shoot especially when you have the time to use lighting.  We were working with our new friend, Lisa Wilson, who is probably the best make-up artist in the area.  In fact the hardest part about the shoot was finding a date in the diary which we could all make.

Thanks to Lisa, we were lucky enough to be to work with two gorgeous girls, Bethany and Millie, both of whom did a fantastic job.  I'll be working up the selected images next week probably but here's a taster of what we came up with.

I spent a wonderful few hours reccying this amazing property this week ready for a full 3 day photo shoot when it is completed in December. The mill, Los Arcos, is way out in the countryside north east of Ronda, Spain, near the charming village of Setenil, and is being refurbished by a client of ours. We've known our client for about a year now and we'd heard a lot about the project, but nothing prepared us for just how beautiful a property it is and the sheer size of the project. The property is going to be simply stunning and I can't wait to go back and shoot it properly.

Setenil is also a remarkable place. One of Andalucia's famous White Villages (Pueblos Blancos) it is actually built into the rocks that surround the village. I didn't have time to photograph the village properly but will heading back inland next week to get some images for my next exhibition, which opens on 30th October at El Campanario Country House, near Marbella, and will post some more photos of the village soon.

Phill Coe Photography Exhibition - March 2009 Spain

It's only a few weeks now until my next photography exhibition and I'm getting to the point where I need to narrow down my selection and get the chosen images to the framers. The exhibition will be held in a beautiful show-house villa near Benalmadena, Spain, overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. It's been over a year since my last exhibition and I'm a little nervous as ever. Below you'll find some of the images that I am considering showing, please let me know your opinion, good, bad or indifferent.
