Location Location Location

You would think that finding black and white paved steps wouldn't be that hard to find in the centre of London however after quite a search (including an unnerving snoop around some abandoned buildings) the perfect location was found. Plus the shoot turned out to be one of my favourite within the second issue of '7th Man'.




Easy Like Sunday Morning


I may have been called in to work on a Sunday morning but the situation was made slightly better by the fact it was to assist on a nude photo shoot to promote the 7th Man Bag range.



7th MAN MAGAZINE


Last summer the high end menswear magazine 'SEVENTH MAN' became my home whilst working on their second issue. The third issue is due to come out very soon so keep your eyes open, www.7thmanmagazine.com

Westminster Show 2010


One of the main things that impressed me about the students of Westminster was their interesting fabric manipulation, especially in Rachel King and Jessica Madden’s collections. I was very impressed with Madden’s collection, the intricate fabric detailing (plastic coated lace) and the dramatic Elizabethan ruffles was very regal whilst the styling and single colour gave it a chic modern edge. I also loved Tamsin Lilywhite’s collection, best described as equestrian gone wrong, but it was so right. Her floor length spray painted trench coats are on now on my wish list, as well as the ice skates in Hannah Menzie’s collection.

Over all the professionalism of the entire show, from the portfolios to the show setup and not forgetting the clothes themselves did not fail to disappoint. I also think that it was brave of them to not show at Graduate Fashion Week; however I think that the decision has paid off.






Let Them Eat Cake


Last summer I briefly worked for the London based magazine, Let Them Eat Cake. Part of the job was attending press events where you were plied with free food a booze and goodies(it's a hard life!) One such event was for a lingerie pr launch party were there was a bevy of scantily clad models wandering about the event making us feel bad about helping ourselves to our tenth canape.

Better late than never

I had thought about writing all about my summer last year but this photograph says it all for me.
