A Very Fantastical Photoshoot

I've been a bit quiet on the blogging front recently as I've had a lot going on work wise and have been travelling up to Dublin quite a bit but I've finally managed to take a day to work from home so I've been catching up on paperwork and doing some much needed blog posts.  I really wanted to share these images from a shoot I styled a little while back with an amazing team of fellow creatives.  Along with designer Samantha Kennedy and photographer Simon Curran we came up with the concept of a character who transformed from being something quite simple to being almost like a woodland queen or warrior.

We started off with styling, hair and make-up being quite pared back and with each image built up the layers of the character.  As always I had great fun shooting with this awesome team and I hope you enjoy our work.

Molly Loves Bowie Photoshoot

So I'm finally getting around to sharing the images from all the shoots I've been working on recently.  This one is particularly special to me as I got to work with my dear friend and designer Samantha Kennedy of Molly Loves Bowie.  The shoot was such fun to be on and we had a great team assembled and I can safely say I have never laughed so much or been covered in so much glitter after a shoot!

My Chicks Have Flown The Nest

Another set of my students have completed their course in Personal Shopping and Styling with me and like a proud Irish Mammy I have to share their final projects with you.  The girls came up with the concept and styled their own shoots and I think you'll agree they are pretty awesome!!

I love how different both girl's shoots were with Lijana opting for a real edgy street wear and modern vibe while Sinead with a more vintage feel with a gorgeous 1920's inspired look.

Enjoy!

Yin & Yang

I just came across these images from a shoot I styled a while back with a fantastic team.  I had forgotten about the shoot so it was a lovely surprise to find them again.  I particularly loved that all the clothing and accessories are from local designers and stores.

Hope you like them too....

Have a lovely rest of weekend everyone!
