A fun shoot at castle goring

I wanted to create a shoot that was alternative and gothic but with a maximalist and fun twist, where not everything had to be black so I start approaching venues and suppliers and assembled the team. I asked Brandon from Flowers 4 Worthing to come along with me for the day and he as always was up for helping me fulfil my weird and wonderful ideas. I had shot Louie and Erin before and wanted to use them as the couple.

We arrived at Castle Goring and were met by the fabulous Lady C who owns the castle and shown the rope then we got straight to it as only had a limited time being that she had kindly gifted us the space for the day to create some fun images. I hope you love them as much as we enjoyed creating them.
