#FFF: Interesting Lighting Edition!

I really loved doing the Tour Bundle #FFF post last week – it was so amazing getting the chance to showcase a wider selection of work by our fantastic photographers. So we figured it might be about time to shakes things up a little bit, and we have decided to revamp our #FFF posts so that we can share a …

#FFF: Tour Edition!

This week we have a bumper edition #FFF – using images which were posted on Facebook or Twitter during our Tour! We loved seeing all of the updates, and excitement, about the tour dates and events (and we’re already counting down to the Folio & Friends Freedom Tour 2014!) So… we thought that we would share some of the amazing …

#FFF: May 31st 2013

This week’s Folio Friday Foto comes from Chris Turner’s latest client album. This image is used as the opening spread of the album, and it helps to start the design in style. Winter weddings are notoriously tricky to shoot – and due to the snow this wedding almost didn’t happen – but the show must go on! This image is …

#FFF: 24th May 2013

This week’s Folio Friday Foto comes from Phil Nunez’s latest sample album. The wedding – and images – had such a classic style and feel, and I just loved this bridal shot taken towards the end of the bridal preparation section of the day. The image looks reminiscent of a 1940s/1950s glamour shot, and the soft lighting and similar colour …

#FFF: 10th May 2013

This week’s Folio Friday Foto comes from one of Alex Beckett’s latest client albums. The album contained a beautiful spring / early-summertime wedding, and it had a great mix of fun, personalised, shots, and traditional images. This image was used for a full bleed, double page spread, and it truly deserves to be called a hero shot. The spread made …

#FFF: 26th April 2013

This week’s Folio Friday Foto comes from Tom Weller’s latest client album. This week we have another stunning ‘final spread’ image, but this time with a more ‘Alice in Wonderland’ fairytale feel. The contrast between the darkened surroundings, and the silhouette of the couple, set against the bright sky really makes the image stand out and pop. It has such …

#FFF: 12th April 2013

This week’s Folio Friday Foto comes from Albert Palmer’s latest client album. Albums with strong opening and closing images always stand out, but the closing spread for this album is truly stunning. Night shots are always tricky to pull off, and it takes a lot of time and work to get that beautiful hero shot in all of its glory. …

#FFF: Friday 15th March 2013

We may have had a little break from our #FFF posts, but we are re-launching it with the most unique groomsman photo we have yet to see taken from Linda Scannell’s latest client album. To say that this image caught my eye is probably a pun too far, but it definitely stands out from any other groomsmen photographs that we …

#FFF… 21st December 2012

This week’s Folio Friday Foto is taken from Jonathan Stockton’s latest sample album. We have another double feature [maybe the post should be renamed to Folio Friday Fotos…] but once again I’m sure you’ll see why we wanted to include both shots that we were kindly sent. This may be the season for winter weddings, but these images come from …

#FFF… 14th December 2012

This week’s Folio Friday Foto is taken from Olivia Brabbs’ latest client album. Once again we have a double feature image – only the embrace shot featured in the finalised album but Olivia kindly asked if we wanted the kiss shot as well, and since they both looked amazing it seemed only right to use them both! This album had …

#FFF… 7th December 2012

This week’s Folio Friday Foto is taken from Paul Maven’s latest sample album. Throughout the entire album, there were many images of the couple (and their guests) laughing and having a good time, which made it a fun album to look through. This image stood out from the rest not only for the breakdancing child, but also because of the …

#FFF… 30th November 2012

This week’s Folio Friday Foto is taken from Nadine Burzler’s latest client album. We have a triple feature/action shot for you this week. When looking through the album design this image came after the outside shots of the bride and groom, where Nadine had shot the children running around and playing in the grounds. It is the middle shot which …

#FFF… 23rd November 2012

This week’s Folio Friday Foto is taken from Cris Matthews’ latest client album. The location used for the wedding had many intricate and beautiful details, and this image definitely makes the most of these exquisite features. The elaborate railing on the spiral staircase and the ornamental roses on the wall, all lead the eye down to the wedding party and …

#FFF… 16th November 2012

This week’s Folio Friday Foto is taken from Ross Rayner-Brown’s latest client album. Once again we have a double feature – but this time it is of a cake cutting shot that is incredibly unique. We often see fun variations of the cake cutting part of the day, but we haven’t seen any other versions where the bride and groom …

#FFF… 9th November 2012

This week’s Folio Friday Foto is taken from Yvonne Lishman’s latest client album. Yvonne used the image as the main part of a landscape spread to start the album, and it definitely made for a great opening image and spread.  The image has a quirky and beautiful boudoir-album look to it, which made for a unique opening spread that instantly …

#FFF… 2nd November 2012

This week’s Folio Friday Foto is taken from Jonathan’s latest print order. It’s another example of a twist on a classic photograph. Usually we see a lot of images using a bride and groom’s rings, but this image stood out for taking a new direction/angle on a staple shot and using a bracelet instead. I loved the contrast between the …

#FFF… 26th October 2012

This week’s Folio Friday Foto is taken from Andy Rapkins’s latest client album. The image instantly stood out for how it differed to the usual everyone-holding-up-the-bride/groom photographs. This is the first time that we’ve seen a lift-up Grandma photograph – and from her expression it doesn’t look like something that would willingly take off! Usually the people being lifted look …

#FFF… 19th October 2012

This week’s Folio Friday Foto is taken from Mandy Carter’s latest client album. The week we have another ‘bumper’ post with an action sequence taken from the album. It is another instance in which signs are used to help tell the story but this time there is one crucial difference – the story is played out as a silent movie …

#FFF… 12th October 2012

This week’s photograph is taken from Roslyn Leung’s latest client album, and it is another image which makes use of a sign to provide a sense of story-telling to the shoot. Needless to say the image comes from an engagement shoot for a couple who are actually due to be married very soon. I loved both the sign itself, and …

#FFF… 5th October 2012

This week’s photograph is taken from Christy’s latest sample album. After last week’s fairytale album opener, today we have an image that looks as though it could easily illustrate Alice in Wonderland (or even Harry Potter). Life-sized chess/draughts sets are not a rarity, but this is the first one that we have seen featured in a wedding album. Since wedding …
