Munira Model on her second shoot with us

We were more than happy to get back in the studio the amazing Indian beauty Munira for a second shoot. In this shoot she was asked to wear a pair of the ballet boots. These boots are great to photograph as they add style and lift to the model, but impossible to walk in. Why anyone would want to wear them out for a night is beyond me ? But they do look great.

Munira is such a great model to work with. She is always both punctual and polite and throws herself into the project. I am planning on getting her back for a third shoot in August and to do the Christmas slot with Mercybongo. Thanks then to all there at the shoot, to Shadrine at Kavour Beauty. Phil Lynam at The Boardroom in Derby. A thanks also to Amy for her help and food.

There are also some behind the scenes shots from this shoot featuring Munira, Shadrine and Amy.


Mercybongo – Second Shoot

I think we have a star here. We invited Mercybongo back for a second themed shoot with us that were actually taken on the last day of April. So too late for last months update. She was great surrounded in maxi dresses and fake flowers. All plastic fantastic!) I had wanted originally to use real flowers but to purchase that many that was needed would have cost hundreds of pounds as well a transport issue and against the clock as they die away.

On this set I must make mention of the sumptuous set that was especially made by Phil Lynam at The Boardroom Studio, just for this shoot. It was so good and fitted the theme exactly using sheets, rugs and other props like cloth mannequin and empty picture frames. A mention also to Shadrine at Kavour Beauty for all her wonderful makeup and direction when putting the flowers in place. A thank you also to Amy and Carl for their assistance on the day swell.

Mercybongo will be back again in July for her third shoot coming soon .

Beauty Shots - Introducing Cee Cee x

Welcome to rhe studio this month, all the way from Kettering, lovely new model Cee Ceex. Cee Cee came to me through a bombardment of messages and likes on Purpleport and Instagram and I thought I would give her a go. I am a strong believe that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes, colours and sexes and Cee Cee is a lovely plus sized model. She brought her Mum with her and did a great job. Looking forward to seeing her again. i So thanks here to Cee Cee, her Mum and to Karen Hegarty Mua for hair and makeup.
