A story in words, a story in pictures

An update of my recent photography (projects etc.). Well how recent...Past half a year? Or something like that. Oh, my art as well. The guy with big mad curly hair is my mate Jack and the other model is Ewan. I'll do another post of everyday life and some parties in my next post in a minute. And I'll also give you a website of that collaboration I did with Nia Hardwicke and a whole other team of people for a her final magazine. The one I haven't talked about yet, but like in short summary it was two days in March. First day we did a whole day in a studio, and the second we went to a café on City Road and then to another photography studio.Yeah, anyway, if you click on the link and press fashion, you can see the photos I've taken. I can tell you though, that there were make up artists, stylists and designers behind the photos who worked I'd say even harder, and taking photos is just the easiest most fun thing to do. That's why I love it so much haha! I need to finish editing the images from that shoot, I've got all the time in the world now so it's cool. And I'll also post a video, which Louise filmed of the behind the scenes from that collaboration. :)

This is the project about making men look feminine. Basically challenging the gender conventions but in a beautiful way. Let's just say that I'd like it if men, regardless to their sexuality, would be brave enough to wear feminine clothes. And wear make up. Because why the hell should there be gender boundaries. And boundaries in general. We're all humans and should all be able to express ourselves. Even if it means hiding behind a mask we call make up and pretty clothes.

A little preview of the images from the collaboration. I took around 1600 photos in those two days. Really have to get cracking on editing!

The two collages above are just collages I made for my art project.  This on below is my final piece for my last unit, the one I just finished last month.

The Memories Haunt Me and I'm Scared To Forget It All: photographs

I needed/wanted to upload some of the work i have been creating recently, so instead of babbling on about my life I'll just put up some of the pictures. The first series are of my boyfriend Ewan. Though these images I was trying to make him look feminine and challenge the male stereotype (which was hard since he has mustache). And the second series was a photo shoot I did completely spontaneously with Peter, after spending some time with the 'VICE' magazine which I picked up in London. They really do have some inspiring things in there haha!Some of them are too dark, and the quality's gone bad, I don't know why though, I need to buy a better camera! But yeah, I just quickly grabbed him, put my clothes on him, painted him silver and we when on a shoot, during which I had to climb a huge tree (the shot of peter lying on a wheel from above- i nearly fell off when i was taking that haha!) And then I threw in some photos of me from march so far, mostly with my webcam. 
Okay so I'm going back to finishing off this photography journal, for which i only need to write an evaluation and I'm done! Hope you enjoy!
