Diversity with Cassie











Sometimes things are meant to happen and decisions made which turn out to be the right ones. It is also great when someone brings something new to the table. Cassie did just that. She brought loads of props with her and also found the very talented MUA Tass who lives just 15 minutes drive from me. We had a loose idea of what we were doing but just developed as we went. Letting things flow without too much detail in plans allows everyone to be more creative and intuitive.
So much fun resulted and pictorially so many great images.

The Dance of Vicki Bee




It is always great to do something different with photography. It is always the unexpected that comes along which gets things going. As a less than experienced studio photographer at the time I arranged a shoot with Vicki Bee. We hit it off from the start and in talking I discovered the real passion of Vicki which was dance. With the tiny space I have as my studio being a limitation we set about seeing what we could do. We got one really good shot so we were both pleased. Time has gone on and we have had further shoots where we have implemented dance. I get very excited about it every time. Timing is important and surprisingly our success rate with what we aim to achieve is high. You will need to come back here as we aim to do more in the coming weeks.

Sadi


Sadi came for her shoot but only having a short time meant we had to work fast. We had not worked together before so it was quite demanding on both of us. It was good that we both strived for the same outcome. Sadi was very much looking forward to getting a portfolio update and I was hoping we would get shots that would do just this. Well you can judge for yourself from the images here!

Luminitsa Variations






Luminitsa just comes buzzing with enthusiasm. Although a very last minute shoot she was immaculate in her appearance and very easy in front of camera. We had not planned anything but away we went creating as we went. Culminating in some of the most interesting images we have worked on together. Plenty of variations. Fashion, Glamour, Fashion Nude, Alternative and Art.... A very exciting two and a half hours.

Jo Incidently






Jo came to the studio keen, enthusiastic and very flexible with ideas. She excels in front of camera and as the shoot progressed we got better and better images. It will be very interesting to see how our next shoot turns out. We are both keen to do something very different, Such a good day with a model very ambitious to succeed.

The Dynamism of Brit!


There are some people who are such an inspiration to you that working with them sends you in a totally new direction. Britta Benedatto is just one of those people. What a brilliant fun, stimulating and inspiring short evening shoot. Turns, twists and total flow from Brit with me zooming, framing and focussing. Enthusiasm? Yes. Enjoyment? Of course. Inspired? You bet. Passionate? Goes without saying. Two hours of fun and rounded off with ClickMore Pizza and tea.
