Bridal Shoot with Somiah Noreen

Hey,

I was contacted last year by a lovely make up artist, Somiah Noreen. She wanted to work with me to get some bridal images. I get many messages from make up artists wanting to do shoots. I am very fortunate that I am in the position where I can be selective about working with the best in the industry. When I read Somiah's message, something instantly drew me to her. It was her kind nature and humble personality that made me say yes. She had only recently qualified and was looking to build her portfolio. It took me four months to get a date for her but when we worked together, it was fantastic.

I generally avoid bridal shoots as I have done so many but working on this shoot was a pleasure. She was just as lovely in person. Bashir Sabar did my hair. He's like my little brother and working with him never feels like work. Jayesh, the photographer was so easy to work with. I loved his lighting composition and attention to detail. Technically he is fantastic at what he does.

Here are the finished images. I hope you like them as much as we did as a team.
