GiGi Vintage

I looooove shooting for GiGi Vintage. If you haven’t checked them out yet, why not! Their fabulous Vintage finds have been featured in LOOK, GRAZIA and NOW Magazine and as they say on their website 'Every last bit of our clothing and accessories range consists of genuine vintage pieces that are totally one-off and have been handpicked during trips around the world'. Nominated in 2011 for a Fabulous High Street Fashion Award: 'Fabulous for fashion finds', they bring hand selected vintage pieces to your fingertips in their online boutique! I always come away buzzing with new ideas on styling, and pairing items in ways I would never have tried before! Like these lace bralets:

 Gurmeet the director of GiGi Vintage, was kind enough to source one for me and as soon as I got my hands on it I teamed it with some high waisted denim shorts and fabric scalf as a belt.

Drumming in the Mud

It has been a b-e-a-utiful weekend, so I thought what better time than now to share some photos from a recent festival themed shoot I took part in, for designer Kate Wrigglesworth's final collection entitled Drumming in the Mud.

Check out the behind the scenes video:

                                              

The shoot has been featured in Issue 5 of Air Monkeys magazine: (Check it out here: http://www.issuu.com/airmonkeys/docs/airmonkeysmagazineissue5) 

We've also gone global! As the shoot has been featured in Issue 5 of a US magazine - Golden Age(find it here: http://issuu.com/goldenage/docs/issue5, you'll also see me on the cover of Issue 4)

Here are some more images from the shoot:

28 films in 30 days...

Anyone that knows me will know that I LOVE films! But I hardly ever watch the same film twice, so I thought I'd do a trail on LOVEFILM. So how many films could I cram into 30days? Turn out quite a lot! I did end up replacing films with sleep though, which means time for a nap...

Who's afraid of the big bad wolf...

Alex Fia: the one woman team.

I love it when I have a quick check of my inbox and find an email from a photographer with images that I wasn't even expecting to receive! Alex Fia is one of the most talented people I have ever had the pleasure of working with; photographer, make-up artist, styling and retoucher! She does it all. This shoot took place in February 2011. Here are the two new images I recieved:

I love the styling and the roses, but when I see these images next to each other it reminds me a little of a before and after of a night out! Sleek and preened to perfection for the top image then more than a little bedraggled for the second image!

Here are some others from the same shoot:
