next bit

Oh dear its been a madly busy last few days, on Thursday I was doing a shoot with wonderfully talented photographer Ellie rose Harvey,  (View her work at http://ellieharvey.com ) at her Hackney studio, our model was the stunning Rosie Hannah D (you can see more of her here http://lookbook.nu/rosiehannah) If you look to your left you can see a photo from a previous collaboration of the three of us, featuring dress by up and coming designer Arisa Fukumoto, (for more information on her please go to )
Right ok now we've got the credit parts done, the shoot was on a sort of halloween type theme, involving various props such as a polystyrene skull which we attached with great difficulty to Rosie's head to create a strange lady gaga style creation, the skull reminded me a bit of the one out of trapdoor, which I was rather shocked to find the youth of today have never heard of (if you've never heard of it either see below) This Lead onto a conversation about kids TV and childhood in general; mum's into health food and what became of the weird kids etc. Its a funny thing this nostalgia business, as a child I seem to remember spending a lot of time wishing I was a grown up, and now I'm a grown up I seem to spend a lot of time thinking back to being a child......Oh dear how morbid, on a more cheerful note Ellie has recently acquired two absolutely gorgeous cats, a mum and daughter called Sophie and Jaliza rose, who caused havoc running around chasing wires and getting lost in boxes, at the end they rather reuctantly agreed to be photgraphed with Rosie, Pic's to follow......
