And I'd give away a thousand days, oh Just to have another one with you...

Hey Guys,

Finally got round to editing some of the photos I took for my Diversity photoshoot :) I have mentioned it before but the shoot was looking at "plus size" and I used one of my closest friends for the shoot :) This is just a couple of the pics but would love some feedback :)

P.S. Check out my new look :)

I rub my eyes 'cause it's hard to see Surrounded by all this beauty...

Hey guys :)

Its been such a busy week this week, got both of my photoshoots done for my uni projects which is great :) Just means lots of editing and possibly a re-shoot of some of the photos but overall I'm really happy with how they have turned out :)

As promised I have edited a few to post on here to show and hopefully get some feedback :)

The shots are supposed to be used in an advertising campaign so would be used for a billboard or bus.

For this image I used eye rocks from ASOS I think they turned out so well, however they are not the easiest things to apply, but the effect is amazing :) I would definitely use these again! The eye rocks are modelled for me by my housemate Hannah isn't she stunning?!

For this image I used lip rocks also from ASOS and again I love the effect these have and these were surprisingly easy to apply! However not sure how practical they would be if you wore them on a night out for instance. I would definitely use them again for photoshoots though as I love the way the studio lights hit them :)

These are my favourites but I took a lot more!! :)

Let me know what you think :)

Follow the light through the Dreams and Disasters...

Hey Guys,

So, today is day one of my photoshoots!! Basically over the next two days I am going to be ridiculously stressed out as I am doing both of my final shoots for uni with only about 3 weeks left till hand in!! So if it all goes wrong well... lets not go there! But I am super excited about it as I am using the studio a lot more this year which I think had great results on my practice shoot last week :) (see last post)

Today I am doing a shoot on the subject of "Diversity in fashion" so basically we had to find a model who doesn't look like your average Vogue cover model, so that could be due to height, weight, race, age anything really! I chose to look at "plus size" models which in the fashion industry is a 12 or above! I know right since when is a size 12 "plus size." Ive chosen to use my friend who is BEAUTIFUL but just isn't stupidly skinny, which I think personally is a good thing! The shoot is all about her and her life so she is a seasonnaire so she does ski seasons over the winter and goes to a nice hotel in Greece for the summer (alright for some!) and she is one of the most active people I know despite the fact that she is a size 16!

For the shoot I intend to just bring out her personality and lifestyle through the styling, so I will upload the pictures as soon as I can and hopefully get some feedback :)

Watching the world coming down on my head...

Hi guys :)

The title of this post is from an old Yellowcard song Down on my head as it just so happened that I was scrolling through my itunes and decided that I hadn't listened to them for a long time. However the lyrics are also very fitting at the moment as it pretty much sums up how i'm feeling... Ive got soo much coursework to do for uni by December that it literally feels like the world is falling on my head!

Unfortunately I haven't had time yet to do my first shoot but I'm doing a sort of test shoot on Wednesday with my friend Hannah to get use to the studio and lighting etc, so I will upload a few pics on here when i'm done :)

I have however had time to update my lookbook so check it out! Clearly I have my priorities straight!

I have also had time to buy lots of pretty things on the internet with all the money that I don't have! Including this beautiful jewellery from Twirly Trinkets which I was sooo excited about and can't stop wearing :)

I also just got a really nice tan satchel from H&M in the sale for £10 which I have been eyeing up for ages and couldn't resist when it was half price!! Will upload a pic soon! :)
