Today

So today I assisted the amazing Matthew Brindle, it was such a good day despite waking up at 3am.

I've admired and followed Matthew's work for about two years now and it was a real honor to work with him, the photographs were beautiful and he's such a nice guy.

It was nice to be actively involved whilst assisting, compared to previous shoots with Rankin or other photographers where I have been errand runner, or just a light holder, camera catcher or film changer.

The whole team were lovely, I opened up my home as a base for the shoot, which was ace because it meant I got to see the whole of the goings on, from the styling to the hair and makeup, which is mostly difficult to do on bigger shoots because there is SO much setting up to do, wanna say sorry to my flat mate Rob for a big team of fashionistas entering the flat at 4am.

Here are a couple of previews

Say hello to Tigerlily

This is a shoot I did today of my good and wonderful friend Tigerlily.

I want to concentrate on my styling a bit more, as I'm starting to really enjoy it, I'm finally making images which actually mean something to me, with this shoot and the previous one of Maz on the beach I have aimed to create my 'alter ago' by dressing the models in a way which I wish I had the guts to dress like.

This girl is the love of my life
