It must be said working along side Pro Togs who have 'been there' got the t-shirts, the awards the video's blah blah blah, is an experience any aspiring photographer should add to their CV.
Now I have many names in my 'aspiration's ' list, too many to mention here, that I regularly look at for that little bit of inspiration and kick to keep my photography moving forward.
Enter stage right...Pete Bristo. This guy invented the '
F' word!
The day was at Wynyard Hall. That majestic of buildings nestling in the fairytale grounds on the outskirts of Teesside. Owned by Sir John Hall, a true gentleman, it has become '
the' place to be on a wedding day and no better than to be behind a camera. Pete was on his whistle stop tour of the UK dispersing his knowledge and wisdom to those in attendance.
After much information, there's only so much one can digest, we roamed the grounds finding areas to best shoot our model, who was in fact one of Pete's recent brides. We worked the light to our advantage creating mood, atmosphere, texture and form in each location. Each of us witnessing Pete's unique style and art along the way.
Would I see him again given the chance.................Damn right!
