Understated Opulence

Sorry for the lack of posts, I'm happy to say I have finally FINISHED my University degree with a crazy two weeks of deadlines. It is so surreal and I'm not quite sure it's kicked in yet.

I thought this would be a great time to show you my latest photo shoot at Bar Maroc in Huddersfield. A real intimate setting with Moroccan settings creating a stylish cool place to hang out, share cocktails and snack on pizzas or crepes.

Shooting again with the amazing Nicole Jopek was fun and this time we created a glossy editorial. For the styling I was given a brief of a ladylike style in the form of suit trousers, sheer blouses and midi dresses in vibrant colours combined with a Middle Eastern twist in the form of statement jewellery which gives a sophisticated finish.

The beautiful make up was by Aisha Queeum and the model, Justina Gunina was just so stunning with a polished look which suited the clothes perfectly. Hopefully this shoot will inspire you to create some stylish outfits from a handful of high street stores.

STYLING

 

This was a magazine project for final year,

a location shoot we created.
All the clothes were sourced from

Magic Vintage, who have some amazing pieces!

It was shot beautifully by Nicole Jopek

And our group member, Laura Mann is the stunning model featured.

It's one of my favourite shoots that I'm really proud of.
Especially when myself and Johanna Bras did the hair and makeup ourselves and poor Laura had lovely Vaseline hair for a few days after. We all worked really hard and it seemed to pay off.
 

 

 

 

Now I know alot of people are in the midst of their university meetings and decisions, here's abit of a helpful example of my course in final year.

I study BA (Hons) Fashion Communication and Promotion, and it is a relief it is nearly at it's end. Can't wait to get out there now and work. It's at the University of Huddersfield, feel free to ask me any questions...
