On a freezing night shoot Mark moves quickly through a variety of areas at a fun fair location including the Carousel, a Fun Fair Stall, at the edge of the Ice Rink andfinally using the Big Wheel as a backdrop.

Using both natural light and off camera flash, which today is the Quantum units, he shoots a variety of images to bring movement and a fun but romantic atmosphere to the photographs, in a quick succession of posing and locations in his usual real and raw manner, perfect on a freezing cold December night.
