Louise and her partner booked Paul for a five hour photo session at the Manchester studio. Here Louise is clearly showing us that you are never too old to look fabulous in front of the camera.
Debbie booked the studio for the day along with Paul to work his magic with makeup and photography. Because Debbie booked the whole day we were able to take her to Manchester’s Canal Street for lunch at Velvet which was a wonderful break in the day. Here are the results of Debbie’s shoot.
