So I'm working on an important blog
posting about leaving ships but meanwhile this happened...
It was right at the end of a long 13
day cruise, Anne Shooter came to the photo gallery and explained that
she had been writing a blog for the Daily Mail on board but they had
now asked her to put together a paper article and she needs pictures
of her and her girls in locations around the ship that really show it
is a ship.
Anne writes a food blog for the Mail
Online and up to that point that's all she had been focusing on
whilst on Silhouette. However Anne wrote the article about the Allure
that I had read in the newspaper because my Nana had kept it when she
knew I was going to that ship. So it's no surprise I guess that she
was then asked to write about Silhouette from a family holiday point
of view. And I was really interested to hear her comparison of the
two ships. Anne seems to prefer Silhouette for reasons from the food
and drinks being considerably better to small things like pool towels
just being available, not having the check them in and out.
Following some complicated emails, my
company and Celebrity got it all sorted so that I could take her
round the ship on the last day and give her a CD of everything.
It was an interesting shoot because
Anne really knew what she wanted so there was a lot more showing of
the images as taken and retaking than I'm used to. Plus the girls
weren't interested at all making the shoot harder!
I'm not sure how me sharing these
images works out however I can share this one because it is on Anne's
blog:
This, if you read my blog you'll know,
is one of my classic locations. It seems to always sell and it was
Anne's favourite from the shoot too.
We spent a lot of time by the pool and
the lawn but you'll have to wait for the news article, if it happens,
to see those.
Following the shoot I had an hour to
tidy the images before Anne came and sat with me at my desk. This
again was unusual, but I have Lightroom right there if something
needed changing so I just exported and burned a CD there with her, no
fancy slideshows or CD covers and no special effects or black and
white images, just cropping and tidying. As the CD burned she found
out more about me, I have a picture of me with my boyfriend on my
desk for example, so I guess I stuck in her mind and I was so happy
to see my name and picture in her blog. This is the post featuring me.
Keep an eye out for the main story in
the paper for me, I wouldn't want to miss it!
