I first met April while photographing an event for OK! magazine and her photograph got published. She currently holds the title of Miss Reading Town, and was voted one of the top twenty five candidates in the beauty pageant out of 60 finalists. We then embarked upon a studio shoot and also went on location in the forest near to Pinewood studio, not far from my photography studio. Elsewhere on the blog [search Miss Great Britain] there is a photograph of all the Miss Great Britain finalists at the sponsor party the night before the Miss Great Britain final. I had learnt that April could ballet dance and balance on a horse and so when it snowed it seemed sensible to ‘borrow’ her for a dramatic snow picture. I must admit, fully clothed I got rather chilly, but we managed the shoot in ten minutes. Here is one photo from the amazing set of images – one consolation, the horse was warm! See the more recent blog post with more images. Also see https://grahamreadingphotography.com/2011/01/april-does-ballet-on-freckles-in-the-snow/
