Salysé Magazine Publication: City Scapes

It is always great to see your work in print, but it is even better when it is in a publication as beautiful as Salysé Magazine. I was so happy to have my submission of my City Scape editorial accepted and published in their April Issue.

What is great about these shoots is I have full art direction from casting models/team to designing the shoot and how I would like the final outcome. This was all shot within 4 hours in London city around Liverpool St and the Thames. I had a perfect model in Mariam who was diverse and able to take direction well. We had a battle with the weather which was against us but this editorial was shot, selected, edited, submitted and accepted within a 24 hour period (proving how strong this series was).

Essex Living Publication

It was a great honour to be picked to Photograph the Fashion issue cover of the Essex Living Magazine this April. I art directed and shot the cover story with a great team of girls. We chose Hatfield Place as the setting with its beautiful tall windows and beautiful interior features- it was the perfect location but shooting in February was always going to be a challenge to get the spring light.
This was a fashion story about the local boutiques and their accessories, whilst Laura sourced the clothing I worked alongside her to source the accessories and include as many boutiques and brands as we could in 6 pages.

Working alongside Laura the stylist, we designed the shoot to work the core Spring/Summer trends including Greens & beiges, this worked for the Spring colour theme as well as giving us a lovely neutral palette to work with. We wanted a spring floral theme but in January there isn’t much in bloom, therefore we decided to work with artificial flower arrangements by the amazingly talented Made You Look Flowers. The set looked so bright and spring like. With the Make-up & hair, Alannah kept it very soft, feminine and eye catching.

As a team we worked perfectly together and would love to work on more jobs for example brand look books & campaigns.
