Underneath our feet you can hear the rumbling of machines: From the fashion editorial shoot in Newhaven last week. We did the almost final edit last night (myself and emma) and just need to run it past Tash as well- but you’ll be shocked to know that this image didnt even make it in. Thats how freakin hot this shoot is, cos this has hit the cutting room floor, trashed, binned, out. Uploaded for Polaroid week as its one of my favourite images ever- but you should see the one that we replaced it with…. This is two of the most stunning girls I have shot, and together they are pure gold, Sally left and Elin right. For the Banks Hiscox /DarkDaze project. To tell you a bit more, I asked 2 super talented photographers to come on board and work on this new project- we have also all teamed up with Sally Reynolds, Stevi Jelbart and Emma Sandham-King. Its an attempt to really push ourselves into new areas, team up, swap around, trade models and hit you all with some heavy heavy shoots. Plus it will all culminate in something that you can hold in your hands and learn to love… I am so excited by this. The best thing about this shoot was working with my all girl team on every aspect, styling, poses, make-up it was a complete team effort, and even though the building we were shooting in was being knocked down as we stood there- hence the title- it was the most laid back and successful shoot i have done so far. this project has legs… we will be using a lot of Brighton talent- models we know and shoot a lot, but in very different ways. Louie Banks has some insanely good shoot in the bag already, when him and stevi just smashed everyones expectations, and I met up with Emma yesterday and we worked on our next ideas. We will get a blog going really soon so you can keep up with what we are all doing- and we can post some more outtakes etc, just waiting on Sam and Sally to get that going…. Sometimes things appear bigger here
