The Brides Mother....

2011-12-12T09:12:00.000-08:00

We all think about the bride at weddings….However we can’t forget the bride’s mother. This is Penny, and looked quite stunning. Far from being the dreaded Brides Mother, this lady was absolutely delightful.

Wow....What a church

2011-12-03T05:14:00.000-08:00

Wedding Photography…………….In Black & White with a splash of colour

2011-12-02T06:29:00.000-08:00

One of our clients wanted a black & white photograph to suit his décor. However the photograph looked a little austere. We therefore kept the black & white theme, but brought the colour in his lapel flower back. Our clients were delighted….

We don’t only take wedding photographs

2011-11-18T06:49:00.000-08:00

As well as wedding photography we get asked to shoot portraiture, babies and pets. Babies and pets take great patients and dexterity as they don’t seem to understand the request “don’t move or smile” as you can imagine. But, that’s the fun of this kind of work……….

Meet Thomas & Mitsy. Two of the friendliest puppies I have ever me. Cute or What!!!!!!

If you would like to have your child or pet photographed please contact us through our website.

The House Guest’s Bring the Babies

2011-09-26T12:23:00.000-07:00

The recent photographs of the foxes have brought a lot of emails asking us to show some more of them. Well, how can I refuse? This is supposed to be a wedding photography site but hey…..why not. This weekend the foxes brought the children, 2 cubs. I have absolutely no idea how old they are, but I do remember them when they were around 9 inches tall. Oh so sweet….

Do you think they will grow into their ears one day??? If you want to know more about the foxes, or even wedding photography please contact us.

The Camera Doesn’t Lie !

2011-09-23T11:38:00.000-07:00

The Camera Doesn’t Lie ! What Rubbish........

There has been a lot of comments on the wedding photograph on the front page of our website. It's quite dramatic.........

However, the photograph started out as something a little more insipid. The basic picture was taken at 20.00 in a cornfield on the Essex / Cambridgeshire boarder. It was a very dull and uninspiring evening. I then enhanced the shy buy increasing the colour saturation. I brightened the cornfield and enriched the golden brown colour of it.

The brides dress looked dark and drab. I used the select tool in Photoshop to draw around the dress and brighten it to give the effect of the evening sky shining on it. I also lifted the groom by the same method.

Total working time was around 25 mins. We like to give all our bride and grooms the best service we can and this sometimes mean working for hours on one photograph. If you would like to see more about our photography services or packages please contact us.

The Boss

2011-09-22T05:49:00.000-07:00

Yes, I know this supposed to be a wedding photography blog site, but hey, we get a lot of emails asking to see more of the foxes. It seem as most of you are as potty about animals as we are. And why not???

This photograph was taken last winter, it shows Mr Foxy laying on top of our garden shed waiting for us to come and feed him. Cold he may be. Stupid he is not. Contact us for more details of our photography services, be it weddings, foxes or just photography tips.

David

Would you tangle with him??????

2011-09-21T11:54:00.000-07:00

A while back, after a day of editing wedding photographs, while enjoying a brandy the prettiest ever puss cat came into our garden. He gently came into the house for some food (cats know where to get a free meal from) while I grabbed my camera. This was the result.

OK, we love our animals, we also love wedding photography and do our best to provide you with the best packages we can. We will guide you through the pitfalls and make it a PURRRRRRRfect day for you.

Groom of the year.....possibly

2011-09-21T11:27:00.000-07:00

Looking back on our wedding files I found this photograph of Lee, one of the Grooms we photographed last year. Although it started off a beautiful day, the wind gathered pace making for a very cold afternoon. What I like about this photograph is Lee looked the picture of strength, elegance and confidence. We advised him how to stand, and shot the photo very quickly.

It's a part of our service to try and get the very best from our clients, which I think you would agree with me, we did for this particular photograph.

If we can be of any help to you in your choice of wedding photographers, please don't hesitate to contact us.

Meet the cat that thinks it's a tiger. She swaggers like a tiger. Eats like a tiger, growls like a tiger (but a lot quieter) but is our little puss cat. She is 18 years old and owns us.

We at Image Control Photography love our animals as much as we love portrait, party and wedding photography or even taking photographs of your cars and boats.

What a Car...................

2011-09-20T13:00:00.000-07:00

At a recent wedding the bride & Groom hired a lovely 1956 Ford Mustang, Black and with the exhaust note very sexy. It positively growled at you. You can’t just take a picture of this magnificent beast without doing a little bit more to it. Below is the result. The bride & Groom loved the photograph; I hope you do as well. This photograph was built into their wedding media show which reflected their whole day.

Sometimes, You Just Gotta Get Away

2011-09-19T12:24:00.000-07:00

When all the photo editing is done, the weddings are completed and your shutter finger has got cramp, the wedding media shows are built……..you just have to get away to the sun and a few days off.

We went to Turkey and enjoyed the sun, the sea and doing NOTHING for a while. This is a VERY rare shot of Elaine and I...we always TAKE the photographs instead of appearing in them.

However, you can always contact us via our contact page as computers and telephones can find us no matter what part of the world we.

2011-09-17T03:52:00.000-07:00

I was picking grapes from the vine we have in our garden, having a break from editing some wedding photographs when a little reddish creature caught my eye. Mr Foxy had come back to see us. After giving Mr Foxy some cat food I took a few snaps of the lovely animal. Please enjoy the photographs. Yes, I know their vermin….but very pretty vermin. We love our animals, so I thought I would show them on our blog.

I hope you enjoy seeing these lovely animals, please let us know if you do.

My Favourite Sky

Skies have always fascinated me; the way the clouds bubble up can look incredible. However, when there is a white out they can be pretty boring. However, the photograph below is one of my favourites. Please look and enjoy.

Hi, in these days of changing trends and fashions there seems to be liking for black and white photographs with added colour, see below. This photograph show a lovely bunch of bridesmaids with a stunning bride. All in black & white, but with their flowers shown in colour. It looks quite nice, and quite easy to do as well. Here’s how.

Open up your Photoshop programme and bring in your image Unlock you image, make a duplicate image. Change the lower image to black & white. Then with the select tool, cut around the flowers and delete.

This will reveal the colours in the flowers. Flatten the image and save. Total time to do the work..10 mins. If you want to find out more about Image Control Photography, click on this link.

Into the cornfield

2011-07-21T06:17:00.000-07:00

Add caption

Image Control Photography recently photographed a wedding in the heart of Cambridgeshire. Behind the reception marquee was a huge cornfield where the Bride & Groom said they would like some photographs taken. The light was going down and the sky was like a sheet of white but we had a go. The shots went very well, except the sky was a little boring. So I Photoshopped it. Here's how it ended.
