This is one of those shots that owes it's existence to a bit of luck and some good attention. We were in between shots and I was checking the results on the laptop (I shoot tethered to an Apple Macbook when shooting in the studio). Eve was relaxing on a studio stool and looked over to her left to see what was on the laptop screen. Hazel, the creative director, spotted her in this pose and insisted that she hold it while I take a few shots.
Despite not being on the shot plan this image has become a fast favourite and just goes to prove that you must always leave a bit of space for the unexpected.

These two images are from the second half of Sunday's shoot where we were going for a more modern or current look. Sunday was my first time working with makeup artist Dee-Ann Hargreaves and I have to say I was very impressed with how she interpreted the brief. As usual the stylists from H2O came up with some amazing hair for the shots.

Yesterday we had the second of the three planned shoots for the 'adventure' project, again covering two different time periods. Once again it was a great session, and I am really looking forward to working my way through all the pictures.
These pictures are from the 1960s period shoot and are two of my instant favourites from the session.

Today is pretty quiet, being Christmas, so a chance to catch up with some photo processing. Before I move on to other projects here are two more shots from yesterday's model shoot with local models Beth and Eve.

Earlier today I had the pleasure of shooting with two local models. While I have worked with Eve previously it was the first time shooting with Beth so this was an introductory session. It went well and I have some great pictures to be working on. Here is one that I worked on this afternoon so I would have something to share with the girls; I hope you agree with me that they both look amazing.
Models: Beth (left) and Eve
Styling, hair and makeup was by the girls themselves.
You can expect to see more pictures from this shoot after Christmas, when I have time for some more processing.
