Well Hello Dolly!

When you see a face and want to take photographs it is often a bit of a journey. It was down to good old Google image search. For those not familiar you drop the image into Google images and Google will find matches. Luckily this came up with Dolly's Facebook Page and from there to Model Mayhem. I had one idea in my head about using old 78 RPM records and here I had the wonderful help from Ben's Collectors Records in Guildford. Here I chose some interesting and varied labels. Getting the records suspended I used the same method as I had with Elesha back last year. It was trickier as these records were so much heavier. Dolly arrived and what a delight she was to work with. She had even found some monster shop display headphones. I really liked her alternative look but with such a beautiful and unusual face I was keen to include some beauty shots. We even did some cheeky lingerie to end our shoot. So a fabulous shoot I think you will agree. Thank you Miss Dolly Diamond.

Elegance with Elesha

Planning a shoot without using the normal studio backdrop for the whole shoot was a task I had not done before. My stairs are great for impact with all the timber so a very elegant Elesha was perfect for this. Using a Softbox to start with to get that sophisticated look and then using a honeycomb diffuser for all those shadows. My newly refurbished sofa was used next as I wanted the feeling of shooting in a room, With a variety of lighting set-ups and lingerie to create a mixture of fashion and boudoir. 
It was a great day with Elesha and as usual we talked loads and never felt rushed, Results speak for themselves.
