I have recently been working with the amazing make up artist and creative director: Madz Abbasi, find her on instagram at @lylikecake. We have been creating two fashion shoots with two models: Phoebe Townsend and Naomi.
For the first Fashion shoot we shot in two locations in Nottingham city centre, an independent clothing shop called COW, and a room in Rough trade which had an amazing sculpture within it. Madz began by creating hair, make up and outfits for Naomi, then we set off to our locations to do our photography shoots. We had the lovely Amy Sykes as a photography assistant on this shoot helping bounce light with reflectors and snapping some BTS shots. Both locations gave us a lot to work with to create some interesting shots and we really enjoyed ourselfs creating them. So thank you to COW and Rough Trade!

Fashion shoot two arrived and we had two locations one was an abandoned car park and one was a multi-storey car park, Today the weather was on our side, but time was not! We had three hours to shoot and create two looks the pressure was on. So again Madz created the make up, hair and outfit for Phoebe, and we were off to shoot in the abandoned car park it had some beautiful buildings and green shrubbery in the background, which worked well with our fashion theme.
We got our shots and moved onto the next look, and headed off to the multi-storey car park where we had a lot of fun dancing away on the top floor to capture the shots!

Both shoots were so much fun and it was great to collaborate with so many creative people.
