Homes and Interiors Scotland

Images shot for this months Homes and Interiors Scotland.

One from today

Today was a rushed visit to Glasgow's Contrast Studios to do 2 fashion shoots. The editing starts tomorrow of the rest of the 2 shoots we did today. But just like Christmas its nice to open one before bed! So even with the tight time limit in the studio we had time to squeeze in this image just for you at the end of the shoot. This is Miss Lisa Lewis currently celebrating her second week with agents Superior Model Management. All the best Lisa! Styling on this shot was done by Angela Corrigan.
Big thanks to the team today all of whom rocked the boat!

POSED magazine editorial shoot

Last June I was selected as a contributing photographer for a new Scottish fashion and photography publication. The magazine is split into two sections the first a 'MUSE' section where each of the photographers were asked to take photos of the first editions muse Stephanie (Superior Model Management) . The clothes were supplied by American Apparel and other than those two factors we had free reign to do as we pleased. The above shots are taken from the session with Stephanie, I was keen to do something a little different with the look of the images and played with a few ideas before opting for the above effect. Stephanie is a former Beauty Queen and I wanted to wrap these images up with a tie-in between her and the wardrobe selected for me. This of course came in the form of the American flag. Its existence in these images is to show the American influence over both our style and our now common place searches for beauty.

The second Section was the 'Quote' section. Again a very limited brief letting the involved photographers really run with their ideas. The above images are a set entitled 'The illusion of symmetry' Its focus is on the imperfect nature of both body and textile. The Model Mhairi (Superior Model Management) was asked to keep as straight as possible to allow this effect to work. The Images range from fun, to unusual, to uncomfortable. The body seems almost contorted in some, but each image holds a quiet pulchritude thanks to Mhairi's hard work in front of the lens.

LOADS OF PHOTOS!!!

With POSED Magazine on its way this month we are all very excited to see the first issue. Shooting (for me at least) started for the second issue on Sunday so I thought I'd use this as a good excuse to pop up a few links and say a few thanks.
HUGE team on Sunday so a quick shout out to them all. The 3 models all from Superior Model Management did a grand job with new comer 16 year old Caron truly shining. The others did themselves and their Agency proud. Check them all out here: Caron, Ross D and Lauren.
Sam Morrison preformed her debut as stylist with grace and ease, showcasing some of this seasons hottest 'Knits and Winter Warmers'. Kat McSwean painted faces and curled eye lashes with her normal wit and good banter (quality job on the eye dots...) and Saks Sarah Graham-Mccombe rokin the hair and styling. Huge thanks to Karen my assistant for the day and all the others that put the effort in.
