Great poses, Great Pictures - Felicity's Studio Modelling Portfolio.

We had a great time creating all these pictures for Felicity's portfolio shoot and produced way to many wonderful shots.. But as I always say, too many great shots to choose from is the best problem to have! We worked through a range of poses and styled looks from sexy swimwear to casual to soft-and-sweet 'Teen Mag' and some cheeky shots as well to make an eye catching photoshoot. I love working in the studio and helping you to create fabulous model-looks; just as we have here with Felicity creating her very own fashion modelling story.  I hope you like this selection of Portfolio shots from Felicity's Pro-Modelling Portfolio Package shoot. Book your shoot today!

Fashion Modesty - Baraka Women - Commercial Studio Fashion Photographs.

Sometimes when I am cruising the internet and looking at fashion pictures; I wonder where the fashion has gone. This can certainly be the case with some overtly-emotive 'high fashion' where it seems the saying "less is more" really does mean less and good taste has perhaps gone out the window. Well I suppose everything has its time and place.

But something I keep coming back to about my work, my fashion pictures, is that I do think it is always about the fashion; the fashion the garments, the clothing that the woman or the man wears. I would certainly like to think that it's my dedication to the garment that drew Baraka to my photography and an ongoing client/designer to photographer relationship that has continued for several ranges now. The Baraka philosophy goes like this "Responding to our changing world, Baraka doesn't follow trends nor design collections for the masses. Instead; designing items of fashion for modesty lovers ♥" and you can read more here.

My philosophy when shooting a range for an online catalogue and promotional images is to keep to a simple clean background, light the model and garments well to bring out the fashion, its textures and feeling and highlight all of that through a connection with the model that the viewers can feel too. Its not as simple as many suppose but it is something that I have become quite skilled at achieving shoot after shoot. I hope you enjoy these pictures.

Ajilee Bridal Gowns Advertising Launch - Bride To Be..

Last week saw the launch of the new Ajilee Bridal Gowns via a full page advertisement in the November to January 2014 issue of Bride To Be magazine. I had photographed three gowns for designer Melissa Carmichael to select from for the advertisment (I had also photographed her fashion design graduation range a little way back). For her new Ajilee label our model Hannah McDougall from Chic Management with  beautiful H&MU by Kaori. I shot the wedding dresses in more of a 'classic editorial' manner using blended lighting sources to deliver an 'evening glow' in the studio and radiance to the model and  gowns. Here is one of our first selections from the dress choosen for the full page ad in Bride To Be along with the final selection and the edit for the advertisement which is in a lighter less saturated and more natural colour version.

Hayley - Professional Modelling Portfolio Updated.

It's always lovely to be asked to produce new pictures for a working model. I have photographed Hayley on a number of commercial fashion jobs and on an editorial submission. Great to get back in the studio producing a more mature image for Hayley. We did 3 'slash' 4 looks on the shoot,  a little bit Annie Hall in the business shirt and tie; a little bit sexy in the one piece black swimsuit. Fab girl out on the town in sheer top and washed-out jeans and a couple of black and white images in a cool lingerie style.

Thanks Hayley, it's always great working with you.

Harlette Swim - Launches in Paris - Photographed in Sydney..

Its great to be part of a new range launch; this time it's Harlette Swim from the International Harlette Lingerie label for whom I have been shooting for for a little over a year. It's also nice to be shooting swimwear again and to be doing it in the studio where I often say is where swimwear should always be shot!  Well maybe not always but it is perfect for the very stylish Harlette SWIM range, very time effective; and the client and I are really happy with the results. Here are the first images from the new range, just released for the Paris launch; all photographed and retouched by myself including the flat lay which shows the details of this range extremely well. Hope you like the shots too - many more are on their way..

 It was also great working with two models again and the interesting dynamics you get from the interplay between them; not to mention working with the Harlette mascot of two 'model' Poodles as well! The fabulous black bikini below is a bit of a sneak peek from the new range, of what is yet to come - stay tuned!

No Make-Up Natural Beauty - The Studio, The Model & The Photographer

Sometimes it's best to keep it simple. Just the model with clean fresh skin and hair, a couple of outfits, the studio and some beautiful light. It's one way to let the model really shine, to get to the heart of the matter and see what beauty really is. Introducing Caitlin B.
