Double Street Portrait (for and of Zane and Robin), 2012
It was supposed to be sunny today, so I set out full of optimism, but pretty much as soon as I stepped out of the door there were spits of rain. Quietly cussing I did the rounds of some usual haunts, but nothing was working. And then I saw Zane and Robin, and was delighted when they agreed to a few shots. I think they’re just fabulous – separately they’re extremely stylish, but together what an incredible look. Anyway, thank you Zane and Robin for rescuing my afternoon! Hope you like your picture.
The Future Is Papier Mâché 
excellent double portrait
Thank you so much. Any chance you could put a follow by email button on your blog?
There’s a good chance I could do that if I can figure out how to. 🙂
You did it! Brilliant, thanks! 🙂 I’m all signed up now.
No it is I that thank you. I like it quite a bit and was amazed just how easy it was to put in place.
So thank you Richard
Swell shot. I’m now “Jonesing” for the leopard coat. Strike. Both coats!! T.
Thanks so much, T! Yes, I’ve always wanted a raincoat like Robin’s – it’s such a great colour as well.
Nice catch Richard. They are an elegant and striking couple but interesting – not mainstream. I like the subtle colour and matching of sox and gloves.
Thanks very much, EllaDee. They are indeed. Yes, it’s a really considered look, I think.
You meetup with the coolest people Richard. Another amazing couple. Great photo.
I know! I love doing it. Yes, they’re great aren’t they? Thanks very much.
Such a great portrait. Love the socks.
Thank you so much, Elena. Yes, Robin’s socks are great, but then I think his whole outfit is spot-on.
Wow! Sure, they are the perfect antidote to a sulking London day…love your sense of a good pic. 🙂
Thank you, MJ 🙂 Yes, when they went away, it commenced raining proper.
Stylish! A great couple, well matched, and he couldn’t be anything other than a Zane! 🙂 Great shot, Richard!
Yes, indeed! Except he’s Robin 🙂 Thanks so much, Richard!
Haha… Who’d’ve known?! 😀
Another awesome photo, they look like a very well suited couple!! I love the way you put people at ease, so the expressions look spontaneous.
Thanks so much, Cheryl. I love taking these kind of shots – and I think that influences what comes out. They’re a great couple aren’t they?
They certainly are, and I can see how enjoyable the photographs are to you, it comes out in the shots. Great work.
This one’s gorgeous. Great looking couple as you say, Richard. And oh, I love that star in the background.
Thank you so much. Yes, there are loads of great props in windows at the moment and I intend to use them to the max 🙂
Very stylish couple and another great double portrait. Was it windy or was his hair moulded that way?
Thanks very much, Stevie. Yes, they’re great aren’t they? It was windy – I hope Robin doesn’t mind me using this shot – their expressions were so good in this one, but his hair wasn’t as vertical as it is in the shot.
Se ven maravillosos, sus looks son estupendos, ¡que bien que se dejaron fotografiar!, muy buena Richard, besos
Yes, indeed! She has a great look. Thanks very much, Manoli!
They are so right now – my own Miss Z just bought that coat! Was sure I had been following and was wondering why you weren’t coming up in my reader for the longest time… we’ve fixed that!
Yes, indeed! Great, thanks! The reader sometimes randomly decides to not publish – that definitely happened to me last night. Hey ho.
love this picture
great find
Thank you, Barbara. They made my day.
So much movement in this shot, lines shooting off everywhere, I like it a lot!
Excellent! I’m really glad you like it – yes, it’s pretty dynamic one way and another. It’s Zane and Robin’s energy that really made it for me though.
Very much a Guest portrait. Nice one.
Ha, ha, thanks very much, John.
I love his socks, I want them too 🙂 Splendid shot, Richard!
Me too! Thanks very much, Emi! 🙂
😉
They look cool and convivial. Well done.
Yes, indeed – they were really nice. Thanks very much, Karen.
They look perfect together!!!
Yes, they do!
It is looking so cold there. They look cold, and I like the touch of christmas in the background.
Yes, it is – as I type this we are seeing our first snow of the Winter. Hope it’s cooled down a bit for you over there.
Looks like you’ve captured them on a cold, windy day. NIce portrait!
Thanks very much, Cardinal! Yes, indeed – right after this rain stopped play.
