Second shoot with Maz with just the coolest german officers cap she brought along, apparently found in a skip in germany. Shot with just one light, 430ex in 28 inch softbox. Much darker than the first set but in my opinion more successful and definitely a style I would like to pursue further.
Just to say we are always taking bookings for shoots whether TF or paid so please get in touch and we would be happy to talk over your ideas.
Maz got in touch recently through Model Mayhem, she’s really funny if a little crazy :) i felt bad cause it took her around 3 hours to get from Ayr to Dundee on the megabus with bags full of props and clothes… she soon perked up though and was great to work with. First attempt at lighting using a ringflash (a cheapy ebay one at that). I Found it pretty difficult and not my usual style but some good results in the end. She sure enjoys drumstick lollies and the whole Dennis the Menace thing looked great. Let me know what you think?
2nd shoot of the day with Sarah. She gets better and better - making our job a little easier. Going for a more playful, burlesque theme but with a bit of class. Thanks to gilly for her wonderful organisation skills and great ideas throughout the shoot… and a massive thanks to Sarah.
An impromptu shoot with our in-house MUA Sarah Robertson from Dundee and our first of 2010. Lots of Xmas goodies to play with on this shoot including brand new beauty dish and octobox. All shot in our home studio. Sarah did her own makeup. Overall I am really happy with this set and hope it’s the start of great shoots to come this year.
Slightly different from our usual stuff but I had to upload a few of the shots we got of our niece and nephew at the weekend - they are such posers and even though it was a miserable and grey day and everything was closed the shots turned out pretty good in the end, alot of fun was had and fin and lily were stars.
My favourite of all 3 sets with Kirsty Miller. All of these were shot in our home studio in Dundee, not the biggest of spaces but very versatile. Really digging this natural and simple look we’ve got going on here. the whole day turned out to be very productive and i would like to thank Ally from Macintyres Dundee, Gillybean and of course Kirsty for pushing to get this shoot done at long last.

2nd shoot of the day with Kirsty Miller, love the styling and especially the hair - too cool! Well done to Ally. Kirsty is so easy to work with and just oozes confidence, if you haven’t booked her - do it now.

Kirsty Miller got in touch ages ago to organise a shoot and we were both so busy it got delayed and delayed but we finally got to work together. She brought along ally from Mcintyres hairdressers Dundee who did an awesome job on the hair and makeup for all 3 sets. More to come - some of my favourites yet!

Wow wow wow, so happy with this shoot – you have to check the whole set, cat must have been freezing but it didn’t bother her one little bit, Sarah did such a good job with the makeup and gilly enjoyed soaking our home studio in Dundee. We’ve been experimenting with lighting alot recently and hopefully it looks a little different from our usual stuff. Cat looks killer anyways so that’s all that matters. A big thanks to everyone involved.

It’s been a while coming – another shoot with the lovely Catriona Rennie. Its was sooooooo chilly and wet so we made it brief . We shot out in the woods near Camperdown park in Dundee. We were going for quite a dramatic, theatrical feel, our inspiration was the film ‘The Village’. I’m digging the way cat’s red lipstick and hair and the rose contrast against the dark woodland setting. Thanks to Sarah again for the great makeup, we couldn’t have done it without you. Another shoot with Cat on the way.
