I won a competition to have a photoshoot with Andrew Wood Photography and the whole experience was just amazing. I completely forgot I had entered so was totally shocked when I got the call to say I was one of the lucky winners.The whole experience was totally amazing from start to finish and I am so pleased I was lucky enough to get this experience. I decided to do new things this year and push myself totally out of my comfort zone and for me to have a 50 shades shoot was at the start very daunting but now I would do it all over again in a heartbeat.The initial call with Julie was so lovely, friendly, helpful and she already started to put me at ease. I was kept updated on the lead up to the day with lots of helpful information and positiveness. Then the day arrived, I was so anxious and really started to doubt what I had got myself in to. I arrived at reception to such a warm and friendly greeting and was given so much reassurance (and a glass of fizz 😁). After arriving I was taken through to have my hair and makeup done with Shona, she did such a wonderful job, talking me through everything she was doing and asking for my preferences. Once my makeup and hair was done although it made me feel amazing the nerves kicked I'm again. I was then greeted by Denni who was going to be my photographer, she made me feel so comfortable through the whole thing that I honestly forgot I was in my underwear, she talked me through all the poses and was so patient with me and I ended up having so much fun.Today I went back to see my photos in a cinema style viewing which was brilliant and I loved seeing them all, they were just fab, having never done anything like this before I was so shocked at seeing myself look like I did.The competition did require a £50 deposit but this was just to ensure you did turn up and is returned to you when you go back to see your photos, at the end of the day this was being done for free so for me I felt this was reasonable.The competition entitled me to one free A4 print with the option to of course purchase more if I wanted to. After reading other reviews I was worried I would be given a hard sell and feel pressured to purchasing more but I have to say for me this really wasn't the case I didn't feel under pressure to purchase anymore. I did come away with just my free print which I was able to choose which one I wanted but wish I was in a position to purchase all of them. I will definitely be going back in the future as a paying customer to do this all again when I'm in a position to buy more.Anyone out there who is thinking of entering any of their competitions don't hesitate it's an amazing experience and you will be so pleased you did it and anyone thinking of purchasing a shoot with Andrew Wood Photography your money will be well spent.Thank you to everyone who I have met and spoken to at Andrew Wood Photography I had the absoutle best time and I will be back in the future xxx
