Yes, that is his real name.
I loved shooting this test with Eric in the studio, the idea was to use denim garments in different shades and colours, and really just focus on simplicity and expression. I kept the light quite consistent with a few variations, to ensure the images sat well together. Eric was brilliant, despite being quite new to the modelling scene. I’m excited to see where his career takes him.

New editorial up! I absolutely loved working with this team to create these images in the parking lot of the studio (haha- location scouting at its best!) I used natural light for most of these images, but for some I erected my gigantic para umbrella, and used the Profoto kit on location. Thanks team for helping me hold it up against the wind!

Testing with Johnny in the studio, with funky garments by Barney Cools. I love their simple designs (I am particularly in love with one jumper that I wish they made in a girl’s size!) Thanks Johnny for coming down to the studio to test!

A test shoot that I captured last year has been published on Sticks & Stones online! Jonny Harris from GTR and I braved the winter cold to capture some images around the arts centre. I love playing with light and shadow, so this time of year is one of my favourite times to shoot. Jonny was amazing to work with, really relaxed but also open to trying anything. A lot of models feel awkward contorting their bodies into strange poses, or trying potentially unflattering expressions, but Jonny actually initiated the slightly ‘odd’ feel to the shoot.
Here are the images that made it into the online feature…
And here are some more shots that didn’t make the cut…
(The first one is probably my favourite!)
