Photo Restoration

As well as taking photographs I have a photo restoration service. Prices vary according to the work needing to be done as it is very time consuming. I like to retain the original feel of the photographs.

Before

After

Emma Especially

Emma is one of those people who is reserved but at the same time creates inspiration within me. We needed to get updates for her portfolio which reflected more edgy fashion. It was so noticeable how much more comfortable in front of camera Emma has become. We had plenty of fun and this really helps get the right images. Anyone looking for a fashion model would really be happy with Emma and what she brings to camera.

Musical Paint

When an idea was put to me by Opera singer Fleur I had no hesitation in being part of it! Working with a body painter (Boudcca Blue Bodyart Ltd) for the first time; was something I wanted to do. Many body painting projects contain nudity but this was different. Some four and a half hours later the shoot could begin and I was so pleased with the results. Fleur was her creative self as we Got our ideas into perspective and worked hard before the paint became spoilt! Great day! Enjoy the images.

More Katie

I don't think Katie needs much introduction in my Blog now. Working together is always full of fun, enthusiasm, creativity and honesty. Whatever we do it always has Katie's individuality stamped upon it. Rather than flood my Blog I felt it better to separate the studio from location part of the day. You have all seen the Bluebells I trust and the impact they made. Trying to produce images which give a different feel from previous shoots needs a little planning and searching for inspiration. Putting a different slant on images to give them a fresh new presentation is so much about team-work. What you see might seem straightforward but the shapes and lighting along with composition takes intuitive imagination from two people. Enjoy! Thank you.

Solitude

Hiding from life escaping reality

Turns round spinning, blunting memory

Reaching but nothing to grasp

Clutching at straws which dissolve

Everyone breezes on oblivious

Hammering against a door unopening

Flashbacks all too openly vivid

Those enthusiastic dreams never emerge

The familiar, care nothing at all

There comes a time to concede

Expect that you live a different story

Knowing that break-out is a glimmer

Second chances were never an option

Primary chance destroyed completely

The past has all the answers

This holds the key to solitary status

Being kind bears a punishment

Spat out at the first minute misdemeanour

Like some ghostly devil in disguise

With all kindness and giving forgotten

Forgotten in the pursuit of selfishness

Or maybe the convincing lies of others

Torture of the Soul is complete unless…..

Essentially Sarah

If you are looking for oodles of enthusiasm then Sarah will not let you down. She is one of these people who really listens and wants everything looking it's best. She is open and receptive to new ideas and this means plenty of variety can be put into one shoot. Being able to talk easily together means that we work very well as a team and as a result get great images. Essentially Sarah is very keen to progress as a glamour model. Having said that she has a great editorial face and is fantastic with Fashion/art. Lovely shoot full of fun and improvisation.
