on Saturday i had nearly all my photoshoots in C and i must say he is one of the best photographers that i have had! with every photo that i got in that area i really like the picture, the photographer seemed to know what he was doing and it wasnt rushed either which i loved   :D  because i actually had time to say hello to them and goodbye to the guests!! Usually its really rushed and you dont even have chance to say hello! also i thought the crew in that area where really nice to and helpful because i had clashes with photoshoots and they all seemed to help alot!
I dont understand why he has never been the photographer in photoshoots before!? i recomend him again!
Did anyone have any good encouters with guests in photoshoots? i loved Natalia Tena she was so funny in her photoshoots and she done different poses all the time!!

The photographer above was Giles Golding and he will be made up by the comments you have made about his work and your experience (he will also probably come on here later and say so himself!) Glad you had fun in the photoshoot!

I had four of my six photos taken there and they were all great. He even took two of them again as he didn't think they were good enough but even they looked fine to me.

I agree, I had photoshoots with Shawnee Smith and Harry Melling with him, and I have to say he was brilliant. :(

Bam Bam's photo shoot was relaxed! I don't know what happened but the camera seemed to just give up for a while, which was great for me more time to just stand and chat with him.
I got about 2 taken before the camera had a spaz, but didn't get the photos back which I was a little disappointed about! Would of loved to of seen them as it was a great shot, but did get my Tattoo shot back which is looking good!

Giles is very good; he does photos at the conventions like Bitten and Hallowhedon, as you'll no doubt see if you visit his website.

I must confess I wasn't madly keen on the blue background (I like the tie-dyed one!), but no complaints about the quality of the photo; he does good stuff.

Yeah all my shoots from this area came out perfectly, and to be totally honest better than a couple of mine from area A!!!

All credit to this guy, I even got 2 Lea Thompson ones as he must have thought one wasn't good but they were both fab, I also got my best photo of the weekend (of me) from this one and that was with Stanislav, so a big big thank you!!!!!  :D

I didn't have any pictures taken in C, but I'm actually kind of glad as I didn't like the look of the darker backdrop as much. Did anybody else find this?

I just wanted to pop in and say thank you to everyone who came through Photoshoot C.  It was great working with all of you, and I'm very happy that you went away with photos that you like.

I'd also like to thank my fabulous crew, without whom none of it would have been possible.

I hope to see you all again soon.

Giles

May see him at HW3 then. Nice to already know the photographer will be a good one there if it is him.

Feel exactly the same. He took my Shawnee Smith and Lea Thompson ones. I was almost first for Shawnee and she seemed a little reserved or unsure about the whole thing but it was right at the start of saturday and it's a nice photo. I was second for Lea and we'd already had a bit of a laugh at her desk (I have the same name as her husband apparently) and she seemed excited to see me again so quickly and just grabbed me into a lovely hug.

Great pics but that darker background does make the whole image look darker. I too prefer the lighter mottled backdrop the other two were using, seems to give more flattering and less contrasty results. But as I said, no complaints with the efficiency and quality of the result.

I really liked the darker background and the lighting set up, I had a pale mint green top on and on all the other areas it looks almost cream whereas in this area it was the most realistic looking one that made my top look the green colour it should be!!!

I do also think there was a little bit more time and attention paid to each photo in this area and I believe that reflects in the quality of these pics, I appreciate it's hard for the other guy when he has to take upward of 500 photos in a short time but I do believe he goes a little too fast sometimes, my Robert Knepper one from Saturday is truly terrible!!!

Yep he will be there, but he will be taking the party shots in the evening and selling them there so attendees can have memories of themselves having a good time! Please come up and say Hi!

Ah right, thanks for that. I'm actually not a big party person and don't drink much. Think I'll feel a bit too old to mix it up with the partying youngsters (I'm 44). It's the one part of the weekend I'm not sure how much I'll get involved with but I'm sure I'll stick my head in and see what's going on.

I had several photo's too at "C" and have to say a really big THANKS to Giles.

I was getting my picture taken with Sophie Aldred, had my arm around her and she was so friendly, "Giles" then said "Can you move in a litle closer".  Well, i mean, WOW, she rests her her head on my neck, im beaming ear to ear, he takes the pictures, looks at it and then says, "Umm, i need to take another one."  By now im just living the dream!!  I replied "Take as long as you want mate, i can stand like this all day", Sophie then ljets out the cutuest laugh and im still holding her, best picture ever, thanks Giles:)

Now that sounds like a challenge. Lol!

My party animal days are somewhat behind me but I'm sure I'll give it a go. There's no point in going and not at least getting involved.
