Shoot inspiration











Above are some inspirations i have shown my photographer Charlie Whiteway for the shoot. I have worked with him before so decided to use him again as the results last time were really successful as he totally understood what i was after. I want the model to be natural and walk around, lie in the grass rather than overly pose as the clothes are lifestyle based so it wouldn't be appropriate to have really forced poses. In particularly the last piture, the sun is not shining much which adds to the shot and as i want a kind of washed out retro look to suit the 60's/70's feel of the chosen prints it would not be the end of the world if it is a cloudy day! I want the focus to be all about the dresses/prints and really relaxed so the model will primarily be bare foot but i will also take some clogs (to give a more fashion edge but in keeping with the bohemian feel) retro shaped sunglasses, a blanket and straw hat to give the look a more beachy feel as this could be lost if we shoot on the moors for example. 

  • Overall feel of the shoot - playful, relaxed, rural, natural, bohemian. Focus on the dresses/accessories
  • Poses - natural, both looking at camera and away, nothing forced, almost like out takes. 
  • Make-up/hair - totally natural to not take away from the prints, hair down and wind swept/tousled, barely there make-up.
