ICE QUEEN

U Magazine shoot which I shot a few weeks ago at the ice rink in Smithfield. Was very fun. Tried to create a fun young shoot this time, rather than anything too high fashion. Am very happy with it. Thank god the girls could ice skate.. They were great on the ice! well done! We went skating ourselves after... We only lasted 10 mins on the ice.. we were extrememly tired after a long days's shoot (is our excuse) oh, and the skates really hurt.

*ALEK WEK*

Here are some shots I took of one of my idols Alek Wek a few weeks back. I was so nervous. She is such a big world supermodel and what if my pics are shit? I mean, if I manage to make Alek look bad then that definitley means I am the worst photographer in the whole wide world. How can anyone make her look bad, she is just so beautiful. So anyway, I am not too happy with these shots as a whole, but keep reminding myself that these were just press shots, rather than a high fashion shoot. I had about 2 mins. I still think she has something very powerful in her eyes in the first shot, and I love her laugh in the second shot. I just wish I had done something more.. I don't really know what. Hopefully there will be a next time.
