November saw a foray down south  to Kensington in London. We were travelling down to meet  fashion model Zara Watson and her partner Celebrity Photographer Stephen Perry. 

The shoot was in a former meditation centre that is due for demolition, to be replaced with a contemporary dwelling with a value in excess of £20 million !

As well as letting us use his lighting equipment Stephen was on hand to offer suggestions which were greatly received. Its not every day you meet a photographer who has shot the likes of Gordon Ramsey, Cheryl Tweedy, and even David Bailey!

Eight hours flew by and we left knowing we had some great images in the bag. After a 21 hour day it was great to reflect on what a great experience the day had been.

In July Heather (Vivian Blue) was our model for the day having travelled up from from Stoke, we created some great images. As usual the time flew by

June saw the visit of Donna (Rhianna Grey) to the studio, thankfully she was able to do the shoot at short notice due to another well known model leaving us in the lurch at the last minute. We were very grateful she accepted the shoot so late in the day.

last Sunday (10/4/16) we had a little jaunt into Manchester for a bit of street fashion ( with Shannon) Even had the chance to introduce her to my favourite coffee shop - Takk.

Last weekend (early April) we were fortunate to secure a shoot with Game Of Thrones Actress Portia Victoria. Portia models under her alternate name Valis Volkova. Not only is she an actress and model but is also a classically trained singer. We also had a guest photographer with us, Phil Antrobus who graciously brought Portia to the studio. Latex was the subject of the day as Portia had brough a number of latex items, some of her own and some borrowed from designers. 

March saw the visit of International Fashion Model and Blogger Jen Brook. Jen has travelled extensively round Europe and last year was in Fiji for a shoot with Von Wong. We also had MUA/Designer Nina Kurtzweil with us in the studio who created a dress for us as well as some head pieces. A brilliant collaboration resulting in some great images. You can normally tell when you cant decide which images to edit, this was one of those days.

At the weekend (end of February) we where due to photograph Lara, a model/fire eater for a budoir shoot, complete with Katrina Entwistle Dean,  our MUA for the day. unfortunately 48 hrs earlier she informed us she had had a accident resulting in 3rd degree burns so it was decided we would find another model. Despite the short notice we arranged to shoot with a new, aspiring model, Shannon Hayes. This was her first ever shoot and both myself and Ian thought she was excellent. I can honestly say I have never photographed a (new) model where the session has breezed along with ease, producing some excellent images which I hope will help her create her Portfoliio and  we look forward to working with her again.

Early February saw the visit of Stephanie Dubois, a versatile, professional model from Warrington. signed with RMG model Agency and also  HMA - Hair Models Agency. We where fortunate to shoot her after her return from London where her hair had been colour and styled for a shoot representing a West End Salon.

Our inaugural shoot place recently with the lovely Katie Baxendale, we had a brief but very productive shoot. unfortunately the weather had took a turn for the worse and the temperature was barely above zero. Despite two heaters going at full blast it was a bit on the cold side though Katie, being the true profesional never complained once

The studio facilities have been tested with a couple of trial photoshoots and everything as pretty ready. Our new wall set is almost complete and just requires painting.

It is with great pleasure we would like to inform you of our new studio facility. Located in the Blackburn/Darwen area once complete it will provide a base for all our studio based photography.

As well as our fashion work we will be available for portfoliio work and mini photoshoots. If you would like further information please contact us on 07787111515 or send us a Email.

Our makeup team, Katrina Entwistle-Dean and Hannah Stredder, did a great job with our models creating some great looks. The Models for the morning where Tilly Tails, Jessica Benson, Emma Harrison, and Karen R. Tilly was a delight initially shooting her in a red trouser suit (which was actually Jessica's - so i'm told) Jessica was shot in a 'mediteranian style' setting whilst Karen was rocking a 'Daisy Duke' look for a barn set. Emma was in an exquisite dress by Chio Ohajuru for some fashion images

  The Models for the afternoon where Linzi, Jade, and Jessica. Linzi was waiting in the studio when we returned from lunch. Into Makeup whilst we made adjustments to lights and sets. Linzi was first for a lingerie shoot, at one point balancing on top of a piano!  Katrina had done Jessica's hair for a new look for a boudior shoot on the four poster bed at the studio, Hannah had been working with Jade for a vintage look.
