The Old Station, Tintern. Near the village of Tintern (Tyndym), in the Wye Valley, Monmouthshire, Wales (Cymru), United Kingdom, on Tuesday 2nd of February 2016.
About the photograph and the photo-shoot.
This is Sally, a model living in Wales, whom I booked for a couple of hours outdoor photo-shoot. I got in touch with Sally through one of the online modelling website, I can’t remember which ones, but could have been PurplePort or another website. After the pre-shoot communications, we arranged to meet up at The Old Station, Tintern.
She arrived with her husband and their little girl, and they were the first to arrive, then enjoyed a little bit of a day out in the grounds while they waited for me to arrive on time. When I parked my car, got out, and was looking for her, and she spotted me, so she waved me over.
The photo-shoot was split into two sections, one hour each. The first section was mainly fashion like photo-shoot, right next to the old railway carriages, those are the photos from the first section.
Here, she is wearing a casual style winter outfit, which is of a tan coloured faux fur jacket bought from a charity shop, along with her own sweater, her own blue jeans, and her flat heeled boots.
I asked her for flat heeled footwear because most women are not likely to wear high heels in such places like this, especially with uneven ground, and that she’s supposed to be dressed in a more casual style. Also, I asked for her to tuck her jeans into her boots for this kind of fashion style.
Here, she is posing next to an old and refurbished railway carriage which is a static display on what is left of the railway tracks, outside the old railway station. For more details about the railway station, feel free to read the article under the heading of About the location below.
Most of the starting shots were of her standing on the ground, in front of the carriage, before moving onto the platform, where she pose right next to the carriage with her feet on the carriage’s buffer.
The photos of her standing in front of the carriage were taken with the lens at various lengths and my position also at various distance from her, hence different background sizes, and different looks.
After those shots, she changed to a different fur jacket, and posed next to a different carriage. You can find them in the album titled Sally.
About the location.
The Old Station or Tintern railway station, is a former railway station on the Wye Valley Railway line that ran approximately 15 miles between the towns of Monmouth to the north and Chepstow in the south.
The station opened in November 1878 and was one of the four stations along the line, and the railway company chose to build a large station as they were hoping to generate more income from tourist visiting the nearby Tintern Abbey.
The Wye Valley Railway line was a railway line along the lower Wye Valley and often crossed over between Wales and England due to the River Wye being used as the border between the two countries.
The railway line was in use between 1876 to 1964, and was operated by Great Western Railway (GWR) until taken over by British Rail (BR). Once BR took over the railway line, they reviewed its viability and stopped passenger services in 1959, while allowing goods transportation to continue until the line closed in 1964.
The rail station was bought by the local country council, refurbished it into a café and exhibition, then opened to the public. Monmouthshire County Council later bought a couple of old carriages, which were refurbished as gift shop, tourism information, and an exhibition. The two carriages are displayed on what’s left of the rail tracks.
