London Fashion Weekend

My first catwalk and Canon 360 experience, overwhelming excitement and a whole lot of picture taking.

I was one of the lucky load of people to be chosen to photograph a catwalk show at London Fashion Weekend thanks to Canon Student Network! 

We all had to meet at the One Aldwych hotel (fancyy) to get a little talk on fashion photography from a fashion photographer (came in a little late so missed the introductions) and sign the forms to say we won't sell the images etc. 

We then walked a couple of minutes to Somerset house to get our places in the photographers pit and change our camera settings before the show started.

Angela Scanlon hosted the show-stylishly of course- before the main catwalk started.

After the show we got to have a go at the Canon 360 experience where we had to put on 3D glasses and got to live the life of a model for a couple of minutes! I went from sitting in a taxi to walking on the runway it was so cool! Also, while I was seeing myself in hair and makeup, the Canon team pretended to do my makeup giving me a true 4D experience.

That wraps up a rundown of my day at LFWend! I had such an amazing time and would love to do it again. As for the fashion show, I will do two separate blogs with two catwalk looks on each as we shot four shows the clothes were just beautiful!
