OVL September Edition

I think this shoot is one of the most hectic I've ever had to organise - sourcing a model, make-up artist, and planning and sorting out all the styling within a week. All of that plus constant rain throughout the day sounds a little bit like a recipe for disaster but I'm so pleased to say that it went well. A giant thank you really is in order to Ashli and Emma for working throughout the terrible weather and for remaining in high spirits throughout the day!<div><div><div><div><div><br /><div><b>Model:</b> Ashli Rosetti</div><div><b>Make up:</b> Emma Hardware</div><div><b>Styling:</b> Myself</div></div></div></div><br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/page2.jpg" width="650" /><br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/page1.jpg" width="650" /><br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_8609.jpg" width="650" /><br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_8486.jpg" width="650" /><br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_8536.jpg" width="650" /></div></div><br /><iframe src="//www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fdismantlerepair-photo.blogspot.co.uk%2F2011%2F08%2Fovl-september-edition.html&send=false&layout=standard&width=450&show_faces=false&action=like&colorscheme=light&font=arial&height=35&appId=112365025537572" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:450px; height:35px;" allowTransparency="true"></iframe>

Victoria

Right at the end of July I travelled up into London to work with two lovely new people: Amber Scarlett on hair and make-up and the gorgeous Victoria Emslie modelling. Recently it feels like I've barely had the time to work with new people so I was especially excited about this shoot.<div><br /></div><div>Although the pictures weren't particularly themed I am so, so pleased with how they came out and am definitely collaborating with these two lovely ladies in the future - keep your eyes peeled!</div><br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_9179.jpg" width="650" /> <br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_8984.jpg" width="323" /> <img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_8925.jpg" width="323" /> <br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_9206.jpg" width="323" /> <img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_9183.jpg" width="323" /> <br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_9189.jpg" width="323" /> <img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_9036.jpg" width="323" /> <br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_9058.jpg" width="323" /> <img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_9283b.jpg" width="323" /><br /><br /><iframe src="//www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fdismantlerepair-photo.blogspot.co.uk%2F2011%2F08%2Fvictoria.html&send=false&layout=standard&width=450&show_faces=false&action=like&colorscheme=light&font=arial&height=35&appId=112365025537572" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:450px; height:35px;" allowTransparency="true"></iframe>

Rokit AW11 look book shoot

<div>First of all I think an apology is in order for the amount of time it's been since my last blog post - I have been keeping very busy but all the work I've been shooting is either in the process of being retouched or can't be posted yet for one reason or another. I assure there is lots to come though!</div><div><br /></div>Back in April I was approached to shoot <a href="http://www.rokit.co.uk/" target="_blank">Rokit</a>'s AW11 look book by the lovely <a href="http://www.scarletshillingford.com/" target="_blank">Scarlet</a> who was not only styling the whole shoot but designing and putting together the look book too, which I must say she really did excel at as I now have a beautifully laid out and presented look book in my hands.<div><br /></div><div>A big, big thank you to an absolutely wonderful team it was an honour to work with, and below are some of my favourite shots from the shoot. <br /><br /><b>Styling<span class="Apple-style-span" style="white-space: pre;"> & </span><span class="Apple-tab-span">look book: </span></b>Scarlet Shillingford-Blay</div><div><b>Hair stylist:<span class="Apple-style-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span></b>Ally Mair</div><div><b>Make up:<span class="Apple-style-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span></b>Eva Bese</div><div><b>Models:<span class="Apple-style-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span></b>Normen Luzinsky / Laurel Blake / Laura Webb</div><div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://4ormat-asset.s3.amazonaws.com/resources/457935/0x550_1308668863.jpg" width="650" /></div><div><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_3652.jpg" width="323" /> <img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_3685.jpg" target="_blank" width="323" /> <br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_3692crop.jpg" target="_blank" width="650/" /></div><div><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_4008.jpg" width="323" /> <img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_3937.jpg" target="_blank" width="323" /> <br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_4002.jpg" target="_blank" width="650/" /></div><div><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_4056.jpg" width="323"" /> <img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_4095.jpg" width="323" /></div><div><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_3455.jpg" width="323" /> <img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_3421.jpg" width="323" /> <br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_3546.jpg" width="323" /> <img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_3600.jpg" target="_blank" width="323" /></div><div><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_3829.jpg" width="650" /> <br /></div><div><br /></div><div>This time instead of behind the scenes pictures, we have a video thanks to David and Scarlet!

Rebecca De Winter album artwork

Mid-June came the long-awaited album launch for Rebecca De Winter's album, and not only was I finally able to listen to her wonderful songs on repeat, but also able to get my hands on a copy of my first album and inlay artwork! I don't see myself as a proud person but this is a really big achievement for me and I am incredibly happy with the final result.<div><br /></div><div>Rebecca approached me back in January and since then it's been a real adventure creating these images: we were chased and bitten by guard geese, attacked by wild horses and Rebecca ended up being submerged in a sunken boat for the sake of art.</div><div><br /></div><div>Rebecca and fellow bandmate David have kindly agreed to let me post the pictures online, so here they are. I hope you like them!<br /><br /></div><div><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/cover.jpg" width="650"/><br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/1.jpg" width="650"/><br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/2.jpg" width="650"/><br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/3.jpg" width="650"/><br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/5.jpg" width="650"/><br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/6.jpg" width="650"/><br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/8.jpg" width="650"/><br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/9.jpg" width="650"/><br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/10.jpg" width="650"/><br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/back.jpg" width="650"/><br /></div><div><br />And here is one of the promotional posters, featuring one of my favourites from the shoot:</div><div><br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/rebecca.jpg" width="650"/></div><div><br /></div><div>I highly recommend you listen to Rebecca's wonderful music, you can find album track samples and her music videos over at her Facebook page <a href="http://www.facebook.com/rebeccadewintermusic" target="_blank">HERE</a>, and her album is out now on iTunes.

Brighter pastures

For the first time yesterday, I realised my self-portraiture is a bit of a therapeutic thing for me. I'd not done any location self-portraits since I moved house back in May and to finally take the time out and have an hour or two to myself to just go out and do what makes me happiest felt really, really wonderful. <div><br /></div><div>I feel like I've conquered a few silly fears of mine this week and I am feeling a million times happier and more confident about my work for it. This summer is going to be full of shoots and I couldn't be more excited about it!<br /><br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_7538-1.jpg" width="650" /><br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_7760-1.jpg" width="650" /><br /><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/_MG_7496-1.jpg" width="650" /></div><div><br /></div><div>EDIT: I forgot to add this when I originally published this post - here is the first behind the scenes shot I've taken on a self-portrait shoot!</div><div><br /></div><img src="http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z338/dismantlerepair_storage2/photocopy.jpg" width="650" /><br /><br /><iframe src="//www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fdismantlerepair-photo.blogspot.co.uk%2F2011%2F07%2Fbrighter-pastures.html&send=false&layout=standard&width=450&show_faces=false&action=like&colorscheme=light&font=arial&height=35&appId=112365025537572" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:450px; height:35px;" allowTransparency="true"></iframe>
