This is the girliest shoot that Holly has ever done and i adore these images. It was a fun shoot to work on... slightly unnerving being around so many swans however that just made it that bit more entertaining. Here is a shot from the day more on my Facebook page. 2011-11-9 14:54:29 http://www.artisticstylist.co.uk/page13.htm#106503 Finally got round to shooting with Rod Edwards. Its been so long now that we have been discussing this shoot. Various obstacles have come up preventing us for doing it before now so we were both happy to get stuck in. It was a really beautiful and oddly hot winters day at the beach. Here is a shot from the day. For more pictures including behind the scenes shots click on the image to visit my Facebook page. 2011-11-9 14:45:12 http://www.artisticstylist.co.uk/page13.htm#106501 Today I had a shoot with another photographer that i hadnt previously worked with. For a long time now I have admired the work of Rekha Garton so i was rather excited to have the chance to work with her. Here is a shot from the day. 2011-11-9 14:32:19 http://www.artisticstylist.co.uk/page13.htm#106500 Ok This day I was working with Timesniper Photography on a model portfolio. Met in House Of Fraser to help the guys with their shopping... I was in shock and awe at how quick and good they were Always a pleasure to meet and work with new creatives. We did a number of looks to provide as much variety as possible here is a shot from the day. 2011-11-9 14:18:00 http://www.artisticstylist.co.uk/page13.htm#106497 So.... Trip cancelled I am staying put in the UK. Time to go crazy and build up more business... enter new flyers 2011-11-9 13:51:41 http://www.artisticstylist.co.uk/page13.htm#106494 So we thought that we would be freakishly organised and shoot the next lookbook well ahead of schedule and while I was still in the country. This was by far the fastest shoot weve done together yet. I think we have all got so used to working together as a team and the brand itself that its just second nature. Just as much fun as usual and the pieces just keep getting better Another great lookbook on its way to you... and until then here is an awful bts shot to make you giggle x 2011-11-9 13:29:01 http://www.artisticstylist.co.uk/page13.htm#98804 Its always great when you work within a regular team of amazing creatives you have a tendancy to grow as a team and really understand and adapt to the job in hand... seems like each shoot that goes by we are always improving together. I do love these EE Lookbook shoots and meetings they are always a fun and productive. On this shoot we all learnt something truely shocking.... You can actually fit a Haribo ring around your wrist... wow Here are a couple of BTS shots from the day as there is obviously a wait before i can share the finished shots with you all. 2011-7-20 13:20:03 http://www.artisticstylist.co.uk/page13.htm#98800 I do LOVE how random my job can be at times. I ended up spending my evening working with 2 hostesses and...... 22 Shaolin Warriors Another MA Action event this evening was the filming of their latest dvd. I had a great time the guys were truely amazing such disciplin strength and focus. Along with doing the hair amp makeup i got to watch the show get taught some new clicks and stretches have a serious giggle... and i was back in that makeup room. Just to prove quite how sad i am here are two pics one of the guys and also one of a fraction of my mess in the makeup room Oh to have an organised space 2011-7-20 13:03:03 http://www.artisticstylist.co.uk/page13.htm#98795 I did some work for the launch of MA Action.
