Day 16 of my Advent Calendar is a step back to 2012 when I had the pleasure of photographing a ‘Vintage Tea Party’ for The Wedding Factor magazine. This was the first shoot undertaken by the newly-formed @thepropfactory under the supervision of Carmen. I visited them at their Exeter base some seven years later, to discuss a mega-shoot next year and my, hasn’t their organisation grown. Work coming out of their ears, props to die for and employing probably half the city of Exeter - a tremendously successful and well organised business! It was a real pleasure to see Carmen (and new baby Arlo) again and meet some of the staff. Very much looking forward to collaborating with them in 2020! #stellarshots #weshoothumans #visualambassadors #vintagefashion #vintageteaparty #vintagechina #conceptualphotography #outdoorphotoshoot #prophire #eventhire #ukevents #weddingmagazine #styledshoot #photoshootideas #portraithunger #nikond700 #vintageportraits #outdoorpicnic #northdevonweddingphotographer (at Broomhill Art Hotel & Sculpture Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6JpAOHAAa4/?igshid=1fncm3pzyek9y
