some more please…

I’m going to try and slowly update some images that have been left in the 2010 archives waiting to see the light of day.
The first round of images are from my second shoot of the year, which was my collection. After only having the one image of my first dress for so long it was exciting to see all of my work on the body. After assessment I still had a full months work to complete so I never felt that it was over. Working on the final pieces and then shooting the collection was stressful, rewarding. It’s fair to say luck was on my side because I managed to get a great team together at short notice. Photographer Viktor Nilsson, Makeup and Hair Stylist Leah Meurer and model Christina Dietze each brought a little bit of magic to the shoot and made my day, month- possibly year! We achieved a clean look that put the focus on the designs, not overly complicated styling. I can’t thank these guys enough for pulling off such a beautiful result.
A special thanks also to my friend Kasia for helping out on the day ;)

In the loop…

My first post for 2011! Considering how packed 2010 was, I can’t wait to see what 2011 has in store for me.

I’m back tracking a little here, but I didn’t have much time to update the blog in December. I was lucky enough to speak to Michelle Bateman from The Modernity Project before Christmas. Sometimes I forget that my blog is read by people other than me, so it was great to have a conversation about my year so far (that would be 2010). Spending so much of my time refining how I explained my project at Uni, the words can sometimes loose meaning when you constantly repeat yourself. Reading the article gave me a chance to look at my work with fresh eyes. Thanks once again Michelle!
