The amber-green eyed model Hana reminded me of some old movies that I have watched from the 1950s. Then together with Jo's creativity and skill, that vintage look finally stepped out from my imagination.

The weather wasn't as good as the Weatherman said it would be, but when we were taking photos in that old house opposite Stonehenge, golden sunshine burst out from the thick cloud. And this made everyone feel much better about the day.

Unfortunately, the river/forest scenery I wanted to shoot at had been badly damaged by a recent storm - which was something of a pain. . . . Luckily though, Jo brought us back to Greytown to a peaceful river spot where we set up instead, and actually, these shots by the river turned out to be my very favourite...
