\"\"<\/a>This has to be one of my favourite shoots to date!<\/p>\n

I arranged this as a secret portrait shoot, so Gavin was only told the date in advance.<\/p>\n

It started when Mike, the fantastic car owner, mentioned he had a Ford V8, the same model as Bonnie and Clyde stole and used frequently.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The models were my next priority.\u00a0Brian<\/a> is always amazing, he gets totally in character when we do themed shoots, so he had to be booked for this! I thought Sophie <\/a>had the right look but wasn\u2019t sure whether character modelling was her thing. Luckily she totally went for it as soon as I asked. The two know each other from previous workshops, so the chemistry was spot on and they both got totally absorbed in their characters!<\/p>\n

Although I didn\u2019t want to make guns a big part of this shoot, I felt they needed to be present to add the mood. We were very lucky to be able to use replica guns on loan by Ash, who collects all sorts of amazing military props and costumes. He stayed on hand to ensure we stayed safe at all times.<\/p>\n

The location was a source of head scratching for me. I felt we needed a choice of backdrops and plenty of space. We’ve\u00a0 used The Gatwick Aviation Museum<\/a>\u00a0for many shoots and workshops over the years, they were more than happy to accommodate us for this, tick location booked!<\/p>\n
