THE GOOD TIMES ARE SLOWLY KILLING US… PT. II

So I’ve finally been home for a couple of day’s straight and this is the outcome of a night with the boys over at ‘Mouse Knuckle Manor’. My boys, Sam, Chris, Wongy, and Jono, know how to welcome me home and have a good time, they also know how to make do with a cooking pot an incomplete deck of cards and several different kinds of drinks, the outcome is ‘three kings’ formerly ‘four kings’ prior to a few cards either missing in action, destroyed, and or flushed down the toilet…

THE GOOD TIMES ARE SLOWLY KILLING US… PT. I

So I’ve been traveling around a fair bit as of late whilst working on some stuff (you’ll hear about it all soon), most recently was an overnight to Melbourne on the 20th and the 21st this month, with my boys Brendan and Jimmy. Traveling always makes me miss home but it’s the days like these that make you wish that the place you’re in is actually home, but then again what more could you ask for a roof top terrace, some drinks, some food, and maybe a bit of work thrown in between…

Ok here are the shots from a very recent very out of the blue last minute shoot with designer and all round sweet heart Erica Stagg. Prior to the shoot I think we’d talked once I’d never seen the collection and had no idea what I was shooting and went out on a whim hoping the location was well, more than suitable and turns out it was more than adequate, so here are the shots from Erica Stagg’s 2009/2010 summer capsule range…

I know I say this all the time for a lot of the shoots I work on but Erica’s range is nothing far from amazing, the concept behind each piece is clear in plain sight and well executed, with each piece really speaking for itself, and Anna our model despite coming straight from a viewing and been dead tired pulled of every shot and let both herself and the garments equally as powerful frame after frame, and let’s just say wasn’t afraid to get her hands dirty…

Big thanks to Erica for letting my concept to come through in the shots and having it been a little bit more collaborative than usual and letting me try some new techniques, regardless of how the shots looked these were shot in full daylight in the middle of the day and mid afternoon using a kind of light masking technique I’m trying much like they use in the twilight movies only a little different and my own creation…

Big thanks to all the girls for putting up with me as usual I know it’s a hard task and they did without complaint, so here are the shots enjoy…
