It always comes as a surprise when models change their hair. Mel contacted me to tell me she was changing her hair colour. So colour done it was a matter of days before we started her portfolio update. The colour looked great as you can see. It seemed to give her an amazing confidence in front of camera as facial expressions came alive. The body postures just oozed Curvation and the outfits suited so well. Over cups of tea and a good catch-up we had a very successful and dark shoot.
I always like to work with new people and the best way to find new people and have a choice is a casting on Model Mayhem. From here I had a choice and really liked the look of Laura. A very different face to other models I have worked with. Our shoot organised I looked forward to it all. We started quietly as we got used to the way we each worked. I was so pleased Laura was so easy to work with. I was able to try out some new ideas with lighting and was very pleased with so many lovely images. Just enjoy!
There are times when something different is required and working with two models was just that. After doing some promotion work with Helen and Rosie it was time to get into what we all love most and that is shooting. The girls had become good friends through modelling having been acquaintances before. Both are a total joy to work with but how would they work together. It was tricky for a start then we all go used to what we were doing and it really worked so well. The set has been buried on my hard-drive a while as I battled with problems last year. It is only now I have realised how good the images were. Just enjoy!
One of the exciting things being a photographer is meeting the people who will be the other side of the camera. When it is an opera singer then it is hard to imagine the person also modelling. Unless your name is Fleur. Now over two years on with our creative projects it is always exciting to find what clothes and outfits will emerge. We wanted something dark! Not in colour but in mood. We got that with one outfit for sure but we also got quality with everything else. Fleur was so animated and we were both happy with the exciting images.
