Today we like to provide you more photos and information about the photo session of our current cover photo June 2018.

The shoot took place with photographer Phil Reay and model Ray Loraine in the north east of England near Newcastle upon Tyne.

Photographer Phil Reay told us: "I was thrilled back in April to be asked to shoot for the June cover, and when I was told Ray Loraine was the model I knew it’d be a great shoot.

I’ve worked with Ray before & she's not only a fabulous model but a lovely person too. As it was the June cover we thought about a summer theme so shot at the beach as we have some fabulous beaches here in the North East of England. The 2 we used were at Whitburn & South Shields. The weather was on our side on the evening we shot which can be a rarity in England.

I used my Nikon D500 and the Sigma 50mm f1.4. Some of the pictures were shot using HSS with a Pixapro Citi600 and also some with natural light.

Special thanks to John Stoves for assisting me & taking the BTS shots, it was a great team effort!"
