A day at the sea side...

As part of my job at Practical Photography I get to go out on location to assist with photo/video shoots and get behind the scenes shots. I also get a bit of free time to take as many photographs as I can of the location.

I can honestly say that I never really spend much time just shooting 'on location'. If I'm at a location I'm there with a model and that's my main focus. Going along to these shoots with the guys and having free time to shoot, makes me look at things in different ways and think 'how can I get a good shot out of this?'

My second trip out was to Cromer. I don't think I've ever been to the seaside in November - it was freezing! The initial reason we were there was to photograph some long exposure shots of the sea using polarizers, I was super excited to get the chance to shoot some! My shots were taken later in the evening without a polarizer. They're not the best they could be as it's really unnerving sticking your camera on a tripod in the sea with waves coming up, but I love the effect and the lighting. Here's a selection of shots from the day...
