This was an interesting one and a first for me…

.. as they were wanting an image to show that they offered a Pull-Out Sofa too, in their Liffey Deluxe Rooms.
So having seen what the camera would record if I where to shoot the room with a wide angle lens – it was agreed that a tighter shot may look more appealing.
And so this was our suggestion:
“Mum with her daughter – possibly about 3 or 4 years of age – reading a story in bed.
Lots of Teddies including a K Club one !!
Dressing robes for both.
Flowers for table.”
Having got a ‘yes’ to that idea – that meant it was now time to take a picture…

.. to see if we could create the type of image that they would actually want to use.
Which started out looking like so…

.. before the pillows were straightened…

.. and the curtains were fixed by Ivan here…

.. who’s talent for climbing and fixing things, I know far exceed something as simple as this – as he recently showed us all some pictures of him on top of some of the highest mountains in the world, which totally blew me away.
And so while Dianne sat in for a quick test shot…

.. Ivan was climbing out the window…

.. setting up this…

.. which then created this…

.. which both he and Claudio here…

.. were clearly very pleased about 
And rightly so – because there is no way I could have done that, especially if I’d been on my own – nor would I have even tried too.
So a big thanks to both the guys for the beautiful light here…

.. which one may get naturally in the early morning, as the sun rises on this side of the building.
Anyway, with that now done, it was time work on what we should ask our ‘Mother & daughter’ to do.
Claudio made a suggestion – which is what we were looking at here…

.. just as Oral walked in with our ‘Mother & daughter’.
So I’m sure you can imagine the look on their faces when I zoom in on this…

.. and then tried to explain our thinking here 
Anyway, once everyone stopped rolling around the floor – it was time for the Stars of the show to take-up their positions…

.. as everyone watched…

.. the two of them having fun talking to the bears…

.. who spoke back – due Dianne having hidden one of the walkie-talkies under the quilt 
Team work at it best – much of which I know goes unnoticed – which is part of the reason behind me writing these blogs, because I don’t want to forget all these wonderful moments that lead up to us creating an image like this…

.. which you can now see on their website…

.. as “The K Club offers a range of family friendly accommodation including Interconnecting Family Rooms” – which was the next shot we did…

.. “Luxury Pull-Out Sofa beds”, as seen above – “and Two-Bedroom Suites”…

.. which I talked about us shooting here: The Presidential suite.
So an interesting one that’s for sure – which just leaves me to say a big thanks to everyone involved here – and especially to Ivan for all that he did, who I believe is still in therapy, as he never knew he had another big son
