Monalisa Moyo – Location Shoot

We chose around the train / tram line for this photo shoot with Monalisa Moyo, keeping it clean and simple. I also wanted to try out my new camera = a sort of test drive – and it performed brilliantly. As did model Monalisa. We managed to get ourselves thrown off the tram area by some officious arsehole who just liked to play kill joy, tin pot Hitler. Oh well.

Please enjoy the photos.

Moyondafoluwa African Themed Fashion Shoot

A selection of picture from a model doing her second shoot with me, the first being the Pantone Colour of the year shoot Summer. So welcome back Moyondafoluwa (or Moyolistic as she is often known). A big shout out to her and Shadrine from Kavour Beauty for the hair and makeup, as well as a firm thanks again to Phil Lynam at The Boardroom Studio in Derby for all his help.

Tanya Model Shoot

We have not seen Tanya (who eagle eyed views may recognise her by her other names?) for a long while, but it was good to see her modelling again … if only briefly. You looked great Tanya x

Thanks once again to the model, and to all who helped create these images.

Tyler Dyce - Chinese styled fashion shoot, December 2019

No shoot would be complete without Tyler Dyce making a show. Here we have a Oriental themed shoot taken in the studio and then some colour grading in photoshop. Tyler was amazing as she always is and a brilliant model to work with. There will be more (much more) for her in 2020. So thanks here to Tyler and Christine Cain for modelling. To Karen Hegarty MUA for her hair and makeup. To Stef Edwards for his much needed help. And to Lee Henshaw for his studio.

Tyler Dyce & Ed6 Once Upon A Time In The West photo shoot, July 2019

Of all the days in July to pick a shoot on location, I managed to pick the most rain soaked I could find.

Still that said it all went very well, with the rain holding off for just long enough. And in this shoot we have alongside the ever lovely Tyler Dyce, a new model to me. Filipino model Ed6. Ed was great in front of the camera and I managed to get some very nice images of the models. So a big round of applause to models Tyler Dyce and Ed6. To makeup artist Karen Hegarty MUA and to assistants Stef Edwards and Amy. A special mention to our friend Lorraine at The Pit Micropub, Newstead Village, Notts for her hospitality, rooms and great beer. Her micropub was used at the Christmas last 1970’s themed shoot, and just over the road from the nature reserve location. Check out her pub The Pit Micropub

Eniola Shittu - First Photoshoot, June 2019

My fellow photographe, assistant and best friend, Tyler Dyce on her frequent nights out in town came across a lovely potential model and a club toilet – as you do ! Anyway, she got her to call me up after getting through to me via Instagram. And I am glad she did, as welcome Eniola Shittu. She is a lovely woman with a strong look and was great in front of the camera. She soon took to it and here are the results. So thanks to Eniola Shittu and Tyler Dyce. xx

Zhane Harrison First Shoot, May 2019

I put a post up on a modelling website a few weeks back and got some interesting people respond to my post .Barring in mind I asked for models without tattoo’s - So why then did I get a ton load of models covered in the bloody things ? Obviously both reading and understanding are an alien concept for some people? Anyway, out of much of the chaff came this great model and I thought I would give her a chance. She as reasonably new to modelling but shows such promise. So I asked her along to the Tyler Dyce / Monalisa Moyo shoot to try her out in front of the camera. She did not let me down - and here are the results. There is also a big debt of thanks here to the amazing hair and make-up by Karen Hegarty MUA. for all her brilliant work on the day. So It is fair to say I am so pleased with these shoot results and hope to work with this amazing model again soon. …. Welcome to the team Zhane Harrison.
