I was very lucky (and quick) with organising this shoot with Tallulah from Profile Models. We have managed to get a bit of this Summer atmosphere in Regents Park – it was about +30C in the late afternoon, and it felt like Greece or Spain.
It's called called a comfort zone – my home studio, dark blue background and my favourite window light. Sounds very minimal, but I prefer working that way and keep things under control.
I didn't photograph lots of musicians, but I had a privilege collaborating with the ones whose music I really admire. English songwriter and singer Richard Walters is one of those guys.
We did this shoot with Alice Viner some ago. I have posted bits from the session across my social media accounts, but never had a chance to show it as a whole. Now I guess the time has come to fill this gap.
This was a test shoot for a modelling agency, but I'm not a big fan of aggressive edgy looks, so my tests quite often look like portrait sessions. Developed and scanned by Carmencita Film Lab
There are not so many things that can get me out of warm bed on early morning and fog is definitely one of them. These pictures were taken in February this year around Richmond and Twickenam area. All I had with me was just Olympus Mju II and a roll of Fuji 400H film.
To be honest, sometimes I really struggle when I need to define a concept for my next personal shoot or set a straight direction where a project needs to go to. My favourite gigs are the ones with an approximate direction, when you vibe with a model you are working with, and when you both leave plenty of space for experiments. That's kind of shoot we had with Lucy Chappell.
I just can't be grateful enough when beautiful and talented models are willing to collaborate on my personal projects. We have worked with Sophie Thorpe twice, and even though there was minimum preparations and no epic team involved, I was more than pleased with the results.
