The confrontation and aftermath

Went out again this afternoon and we were walking through the fields getting some lovely GV shots (general view) basically shots of the surrounding area and so on. We were constantly being watched by apparent farmers and a particular red Land Rover which the farmer was driving earlier kept passing us. We got back into the car and decided they weren't going to come out for a while so we headed down to the nearby beach in the hope of getting pictures of surfers in the sea. We headed on down the road then pulled over and decided it would be too risky to abandon our post and we turned around and headed back again. On our way back we noticed that the gate leading to SJP's driveway was partly open – something we were sure wasn't the case when we had previously passed it. We looked on the opposite side of the road and up a long lane and there was a small group of people. I mentioned to dad that maybe they were among them. He checked with the binoculars and sure enough there was Sarah Jessica Parker, husband Matthew Broderick, and their 5-year-old son James Wilkie. We turned around and slowly drove passed, our cameras clicking furiously and the couple – who it later became evident were heading out for a picnic – started scuttling back down the lane towards their holiday home. Sarah grabbed her son's hand and pulled him along briskly. They headed up the road with us slowly following them in the car, snapping away the whole time. In hindsight, we should have overtaken them and got shots from the front because many of the pictures we shot were of backs of heads. They headed up their driveway and, despite us not even having any intentions of following them up their private road, the red Land Rover that we had sighted many times before actually suddenly appeared, darted in front of us and parked right inbetween the two gate posts making sure that we didn't try and follow them.
The job however was a success, we had pictures of the couple together which matched the criteria we were given.
On a personal note, i did feel hugely guilty afterwards as the couple had come along way to solve their marital difficulties, they had planned out a fun family picnic up in a nearby field and on their way up we showed up and they had to completely cancel their plans and taking their son by the hand scurry back to the cottage.
I would upload pictures but Im getting paid for them so i shall upload them once the magazine that is buying them publishes them. Not before then. Should be in the magazine next Tuesday though. And in a month or so I'll have a nice healthy paycheque ;)
