MY ONE DAY STUDIO IN WALES, UK

On my trip to Bristol last week, we were invited by a good friend to spend the day with her and her family at their 300 year old home in Wales for lunch and some down time.

Me and my crew mates Vyal and Werc took her up on the offer and the experience was extremely memorable.

I never expected that Wales was such a beautiful place! Here are a couple of shots to share with you..
enjoy!
