Tobi Hannah look book

I have fallen in love with Tobi Hannah's bridal dresses!! They are short, cute and ever so flattering! Do check her out if you are planning to get married soon (Tobi Hannah website).

I had a lovely day shooting her look book (and it being a sunny day made it even better!). Dancing around to my awful studio music, chatting loads and trying shoes on :D Having a great team always helps!

Grunge Amy!

I love shooting with natural light at the studio.. the triangular shape of the room creates a sweet spot (luckily exactly in front of my backdrops!) for lighting.

These images were shot just like that. The flash lighting was just too harsh for what I wanted, so open the curtains and voila!

We were aiming for a grungey but polished beauty story and having designer Damian Marquez's new collection in the studio (AW 12/13 mensware) was a special treat!

Sohui for Sugarpill

When I got asked by model Sohui to shoot some images for Sugarpill Cosmetics, only one make-up artist popped to mind: Roseanna Velin and her insane/amazing colour work! Luckily she agreed and here are the results! Can't wait for Sugarpill to use them :D

I've recently been playing around with Sugarpill pigments myself and I have to say AMAZING! So bright! Even the boyfriend noticed the difference..

Amy and Lucy BTS

Something a little darker and different from me.. The idea was to make the model look quite grungey and rockstar-like.. Can't wait to work on these!! Shame I've been ill and moving the house round (my computer is in bits waiting for its new home..) but I'll get to them soon enough!

With the gorgeous Amy modelling and amazing make-up artist Lucy Mckeown (introduced to me by the lovely MUA Sian Faulkner) I was very spoilt.

Hello!!

Metz & Trix BTS

A day in the life of Park Studios...

I had Metz & Trix at the studio the other day. We were shooting the cover for Invazian magazine. The guys recently topped the Urban charts with their song OMG (with DJ Surinder Rattan, who I also shot). There were quite a few people at the studio, but we got all our work and more done! :D
