Fashion is one big adventure
It might be worth explaining first, that I absolutely love everything about China. I’ve had this fairytale-style obsession with the country since I was a small child, back when globalisation hadn’t really hit yet and places still seemed far away and mysterious. As a result I love everything from their food, art, culture, history and …
So this is the last shoot for the September issue project I started for fashion month. It is also the shoot that caused me the most amount of grief, because it was one that I just couldn’t quite figure out how to pull off the vision in my head. To properly explain my vision you …
This was another shoot that had been planned for quite some time. It started off innocently enough back at the start of July, while I was researching another location very close to this one here. I was looking into doing a shoot at Abbey Mills Pumping station, a rather unobtrusive Victorian building from the outside, …
How to describe this shoot. It’s gone through a lot of changes before we ended up with the end result. Originally it was supposed to be shot in Hampstead Heath, hence the name, and as with another shoot I was relying on a Mango dress, that annoyingly fell through. Mango seem to be doing that …
This shoot started off as something completely different. I originally had in mind a more Earth Mother Goddess shoot with white lace, lots of floral garlands and having it shot in the middle of the day.

Hello world, Yesterday’s The Shoot for Tropic Thunder was less inspired by shoots in the fashion magazines than the location itself. The location is St. Dunstan in the East, a ruined church that was bombed out during WWII and then transformed into a small garden in the heart of the financial district, the City of London. It’s …
Hello world, Happy Easter everybody! I hope everybody has a good day, you eat lots of chocolate and enjoy the time with your family. I will be spending the morning controlling a hyperactive one-year old and cooking a massive Easter dinner for our little family. So here’s today’s Inspiration post; a little something pretty to …
Hello world, In today’s inspiration post I thought I’d show you the concept behind yesterday’s ‘Look of the Day’ Orange Crush. It has quite a bit of inspiration coming from some very diverse places, so I’ll try and explain it easily. Here’s an image of the shoot just to remind us of the finished product. …
Hello world, This is a bit of a new one, but I thought I’d show you guys a kind of behind-the-scenes look at the concept behind a ‘Look of the Day’ shoot. Now most of the ones done for it are just a beautiful outfit shot on a street, but some have a bit more …
