Here are the images from the afterball session we shot today with the gorgeous Nikki, Chanelle, Jess, Sydney, and Georgia.

We kicked off at a grungy urban location, and then moved along to a cool field. The rain arrived halfway through – but that only makes the sky look even better, and gave us an excuse to get the umbrellas into the shots too!

The concept behind this photo shoot was that usually, girls only wear their gorgeous ball dress one time… and the photos you get in it are in front of the “standard” back drop along with everyone elses.
So this is a way of getting to wear the dress again, and having fun with some mates at the same time.

We’re going to be doing these “afterball shoots” at a special introductory price of $100 for the session… and then $100 per person to buy your files on a disc, to print as you want.

The session cost can be split between up to 5 people…. so you would only need to chip in $20 each if there are 5 of you… and then you each pay the $100 for a disc of gorgeous photos.

That price will probably go up soon, but for now you can get some amazing shots in your ball dress for not much $$ at all

**Edit** – Since posting this – we’ve had a few questions about whether we could do a shoot like this pre-ball. Answer = of course! Just make sure you allow enough time between when you get your hair / makeup done and when you need to leave. Also – we can really only shoot one session per ball – so first in first served. After the ball – we can take as many shoots on as you want

Here’s the stuff we shot today – love them!!

Hey guys,

Last night, we photographed the HBHS school ball at the Verandah, by Hamilton Lake.

It was an awesome venue, and the ball committee did a great job coordinating the various parts of the evening, which came together without a hitch.

We had a cool fairy light backdrop to work with for the formal photos, and also took the chance to get a little experimental with some long exposure shots on the dancefloor – making the lights all swirly and just generally looking cool.

Make sure you also check out our Facebook page if you haven’t yet – once you “like” the page, you can also comment on, and tag, the photos there.

So here’s a little peek at how the photos are looking so far – more to come next week, so keep an eye out on Facebook.
