Eddie Gunning:
Cinematic Photoshoot at The Hoppings.
Neon lights, golden hour glow, and a fairground after dark — when modelling meets cinematography.

- WHAT — Tyne Tees Model Photoshoot
- WHEN — 2024
- WHERE — The Hoppings, Newcastle Upon Tyne
- HOW — Special lighting from the fairground backdrop and golden hour sunset, to create a cinematic shoot
Using the
Fairground Energy.
The Hoppings is pure visual chaos in the best way — flashing bulbs, spinning rides, saturated colours and constant motion. The goal of this shoot was to use that energy and shape it into something cinematic and controlled, without losing the raw atmosphere of the fairground.
- Bespoke off-camera lighting with existing festival lights
- Golden hour and sunset tones blended with neon and tungsten glows
- Fashion-led posing in a chaotic, real-world environment
Contrast and
Cinematic Impact.
Every frame was about contrast: warm sunset skin tones vs electric fairground colours. Sharp subject focus against motion blur and light trails. Fashion-led posing in a chaotic, real-world environment. No studio. No sterile setups. Just controlled creativity in a live, unpredictable setting.

Authentic, Energetic
and Cinematic.
Tyne Tees modelling is all about character and presence, and Eddie brought exactly that. The fairground backdrop strengthened the shoot beyond standard model imagery, giving it a bold editorial feel while staying grounded in the North East. Shooting at The Hoppings meant reacting fast — crowds moving, lights changing, rides starting and stopping. The challenge was part of the magic.
- Bold editorial feel grounded in the North East
