Photographing PR shots for a Theatre production of My Fair Lady


January 15, 2024

It’s not often that I get the chance to work with a group of theatre actors, or is it called a troupe? Anyway, we had the opportunity to shoot some photos of them dressed up in period costumes at Davenport House in Shropshire. Despite the cold weather, it was a fantastic day, thanks to the staff member named Jared, who went above and beyond to ensure that we had access to the entire property for the photos and that nothing was too much trouble. The actors were also incredible, always ready to perform their parts and get into character when the camera was clicking.

The theatre company putting on the show is the BMTC (Bridgnorth Musical Theatre Company), and it’s running from the 13th to the 17th of February 2024 in Bridgnorth. Visit their website for more information or tickets. www.bridgnorthmusicaltheatrecompany.co.uk
