Avant Garde Fashion Photography
I love being involved in avant garde fashion photography projects. Over the years I’ve had the privilege of working with some fantastic creatives. It is a real pleasure photographing stunning makeup designs, hairstyles, headpieces and clothing. This page contains a small selection of images that have come about through collaborations with models, makeup artists, hair stylists and others. If you have a similar project or a possible idea you would like to develop please do get in touch.

Images from the shoot went on to feature in magazines in the UK and USA with one being chosen as the cover image and also being selected for an international photography salon:

Images from this shoot were featured in articles in several regional newspapers.
