Dance Portraits!

This project has been in my mind for a long time and was a way of expressing feelings of grief and loss. With the help of the wonderfully talented Jamal Sterrett phoenix through dance, he helped me bring these ideas from my mind into reality.

This shoot was so beautiful and emotional for me and I shall treasure the shots forever!

Morphe makeup photoshoot, with Boots

As mentioned in a previous post I will be sharing a few Beauty Portraits from some commercial work I have done with Boots, here are a few photos from a Morphe make up shoot for them. This was a lot of fun to shoot and was photographed in the Morphe studio which was a lovely little space. 

The photos were to accompany a makeup tutorial video for Boots which teaches you how to do the looks below, I love working on these types of shoot as I find the tutorials so mesmerizing to watch and it’s interesting to see other creatives create such interesting looks with makeup.

As always on these photoshoots its a great project of teamwork so I’m always grateful for the great Boots team and on this occasion, the Morphe make up artists to!

Fun with the Oddsocks Theatre

Recently I had a promotional stills shoot for Oddsocks productions a Derby-based theatre company, for their upcoming show Comedy of Errors.

It was a super fun shoot as usual with these guys, during theatre portrait shots there are a lot of costumes and characters to portray to show the variety of the show we are promoting, so there is always a laugh showing the best of these characters as can be seen below!

We also shot some other shots for a future production which can also be seen below to and on the Faces page of the site!
