I absolutely love music and vintage fashion. I play the harp, violin and piano, and only get the chance to show off beautiful outfits when I have a school performance. This is why, when the opportunity to participate in a teenage styled shoot presented itself, I could resist!
It was the most exciting experience, talking to Natasha about what the shoot would be like. We shared thoughts and opinions about what clothes would be used, how I would do my hair and make-up, and where it would actually take place. The fact the shoot was to include a fun side and serious side, done in that order, was just perfect. Natasha and Deon knew exactly what to say to help me get the right pose or facial expression. It completely took away any nerves I had about not knowing how to ‘model’.
Having a properly styled sunset shoot, poufy skirt, parasol and all, was the funnest thing I’ve ever done. If skipping and twirling on a vast expanse of sunset bathed grass isn’t already 10/10 for every girl’s idea of a perfect photo shoot, then the fact you get to work with the most amazing and kindest photographers you will ever meet can’t make it anything less!
I’ve already talked non-stop to my friends about the experience, and we’ve agreed a group photo-shoot would be the most amazing present for one of the girl’s upcoming 17th birthday.
If I had to choose three words to describe my experience for this shoot, it wouldn’t be anything other than a dream come true.
