Green Lanterns

Minh-Ly rocks the green look

Shooting update

It's now 12 days since my last shoot and I'm officially in my off-season. My first booked shoots are in March of 2027. That's not to say I won't start working with models again before that.

It's a weird feeling though, no shoot to prepare for, no mood boards to prep and no new images to process.

But it doesn't mean there's nothing to do! I'm working on a number of zines and art books currently. I also finally got all of my shoots since 2015 organised into year based folders. With my and technology's advances in editing, I may well revisit some of these older shoots to see what they may now yield.

Then of course focus starts to turn to 2027. I can probably only really afford one trip to the continent, so the main decision is where. The two candidates at the moment are Italy and Scandinavia. I've wanted to explore the Nordic regions for a while but studios are hella expensive (2 years ago was €1100 for a day with no lighting!). Italy offers an interesting possibility - especially if a decent palazzo can be hired, and Italian models have a different quality...

Decisions, decisions.

Today's content

But back to today's order of business and it's the second look from this shoot with travelling Thai model, Minh-Ly

The last look featured was a happenstance as the dress had broken so the look we ended up was down to her invention and ability to work it.

This look has an earthly green feel to it. A fab sateen jumpsuit with hat/capto create an almost retro fashion vibe.

We were working out of a studio in Birmingham. My first time shooting in the city. This all came about as Minh-Ly was on the way to Basford for a due with Holly (Ivory Flame).

The date for that didn't work for me and I'd already shot with Holly a couple of times, so managing to negotiate a workable solution with Minh-Ly was a result.

To make the trip worth it, I had shot with Tania Rozhko in the morning

There are 30 images in this set and they are available to all members.
