'Talk That Talk' Inspired Photoshoot.


This Photoshoot Was Inspired By Rihanna's 'Talk That Talk' Promo Photoshoot. I Really Liked These Images And The Cool But Grungy Theme That I Really Wanted To Create My Own Images In This Style. I Decided To Have Two Models In This Shoot. I Chose Victoria Cleave Because She Has That 'Rihanna Look' And Lydia Connell Because I Feel That This Would Create A Contrast Between The Models. I Shot These Images In Norwich At The Waterfront Area And Also Near The University Where It Has Lots Of Graffiti Areas Which Worked Perfect For This Shoot. I Really Like The Images That I Took And The Styling Was All Done By Myself Too. I Wanted The Same Style As Rihanna Had In Her Images, So I Decided That Denim Clothing Was Really Important. Here Are All The Final Edits From The Shoot. This Is One Of My Favourite Photoshoots That I Have Done And I Am Really Happy With The Final Photographs.

Floral Photoshoot.


As I Have Done A Lot Of Dark And Grungy Photoshoots Lately, I Really Wanted To Experiment With Lighter Colours And Do A Light And Pastel Floral Photoshoot. I Found These Photographs A Challenge To Edit Because I Am Used To Editing Darker Photographs With Contrasting Colours. I Really Enjoyed Shooting This Shoot With Lydia And Using Flowers As An Accessory In The Shoot. Using Lighter Colours In A Shoot Was Different From Lots Of The Work I Have Previously Done But I Am Glad That I Did This Shoot As It Was Almost Like A Little Experiment And Challenging Myself. With These Edits, I Have Stuck With A Pale Light Theme With Pale Pink Tones. I Have Also Changed One Of The Images Black And White. I Really Like The Minimal But Pretty Make-up Used In This Photoshoot. The Styling Was Done By Myself And Lydia Connell Modelled And Also Did The Make-up For The Photoshoot.

Snow Queen & Dark Lace Photoshoot.


This Next Photoshoot Was All About Different Textures And Layers Of Materials That I Could Find. This Photoshoot Is Split Up Into Two Parts. The First Part Of The Shoot Is A Snow Queen Theme. I Really Focused On Light Icy Colours In This Theme. I Used A Light And Silvery Look For The Models Makeup. In This Shoot The Different Textures Worked Extremely Well Creating Layers On The Models Face. In These Edits I Also Focused On Mirroring The Images To Create Interesting Patterns In The Images. I Previously Experimented With This Sort Of Imagery In My Geisha Images And Thought It Looked Visually Strong. The Second Part Of The Shoot Was Darker With Black Lace And A Dark Wig. Lydia Connell Was The Model For Both Photoshoots, But I Also Decided To Join In The Photoshoot Too. I Really Like The Similarities In The Two Shoots But The Colours And Themes Of The Two Photoshoots Show A Complete Contrast.

Dark & Vintage Photoshoot.


This Photoshoot Is A Dark And Vintage Shoot That I Have Always Wanted To Do. I Wanted To Express Simplicity In A Fashion Photography Shoot As Most Of My Shoots Are Very Fashion Themed. I Wanted To Keep It Really Simple With The Models Looks And Focus On The Props As The Main Focus. Charlten Palmer Was My Main Model In This Shoot But Amy Jones And Lydia Connell Were Also Involved. I Think The Skulls And The Guns Create A Creepy Scary Atmosphere And The Camera Creates A Vintage Feel To The Images. This Was A Really Simple Shoot But I Believe That It Worked. The Look Was Completed With All The Models Sporting A Dark Lipstick. Hope You Like These Simple But Effective Dark And Vintage Images.

Indian Photoshoot.


In This Photoshoot I Really Wanted To Do Something Out Of The Box. I Have Always Wanted To Do An Indian Native-American Styled Fashion Shoot. I Decided To Use Two Models That I Have Never Worked With Before. Their Two Contrasting Looks Worked Really Well Together In The Images. I Really Like The Props And Accessories Used In The Shoot Too. The Images Were Shot In A Woods And The Styling Was Done By Myself And Lydia Connell. The Makeup Was Done By Amy Jones, The Dark Haired Model In The Shoot. I Really Like The Native Patterns Created On Their Faces With The Makeup. I Think The Head Dress And The Head Bands Worked Really Well To Show The Native Look. I Think The Images In Colour Are My Favourite As I Think Colour Is Extremely Important For This Theme. The Woodland Setting Is Also Really Special In These Images And Works Perfectly In This Photoshoot Showing Indians In The Woods.




We Also Used Smoke In This Shoot To Put In The Pot. I Think This Works Really Well For This Photoshoot And I Also Like The Effect It Creates To The Images. I Also Like The Skull We Used As I Feel It Looks Good Against The Trees And Next To The Model. I Think The Fashion Photography As Well As The Beauty Shots Have Worked Really Well. You Would Have Never Thought That It Was Shot In November! This Has Been One Of My Favourite Photoshoots. I Think Working With Different Models Really Helps With The Variety In My Portfolio Showcasing My Work.
