ON WHITE HORSES
HAPPY NEW YEAR! Who knows what the next couple of months will bring. But in this world of uncertainty it’s lovely to create these magical pictures. We shot them way back in the Summer in The Cotswolds and were lucky enough to have them published in Mini Maven this Christmas. The styling and inspiration came from a TV programme, ‘The White Horses’ I loved to watch as a child. Yes, I’m feeling positive – it’s difficult not to, when I work with so many gorgeous and talented people. So, bring on 2019!

SWEPT AWAY
When most people think of fashion shoots, they always imagine they’re terribly glamorous. Well, I’m afraid it’s not always the case. Working in fashion, you’re constantly shooting out of season. Our poor models are always baking in faux fur coats in the middle of Summer or freezing to death in bikinis in the depth of Winter.
Another myth is that we’re always jetting off to somewhere amazingly exotic – maybe Bali, Maldives or Fiji? No such luck, this time I was heading for the not quite so sunny Kent!
Dungeness is one of the most unusual places I have ever visited with its barren flat landscape and nuclear power station. On the plus side, this beachside location does have amazing light. Unfortunately for our crew, we plumped for the coldest, windy day ever – It must have been over 20 knots. I felt chilled to the bone even in all my layers of sweaters and puffa jacket. How our amazing model Ishika kept her act together in these flimsy cotton and lace little numbers I’ll never know. But she did, not complaining once as the wind practically blew her hair away. What a trooper! Anyhow all is forgotten when we look back at the pics. I love them and can now only think warm thoughts!
