Andrew Griffiths

I recently did a Photo Shoot with Andrew Griffiths who is the lovely owner of Saracen House in Milton Keynes. I loved every minute of shooting with Andrew, he gives great direction, very friendly guy and very fun to work with!

I bought along Emma Downes who is My Make-up Artist in a lot of my shoots and she is a great person with fantastic make-up skills! I'll tell her what I want and it's spot on perfect :)

Here are some recent images I have been sent;

Still got more to come from this shoot :)

More Photos from Foto Retro

Morning everyone!

Hope you all enjoyed a very relaxing nice long 3 day weekend :).

If only every weekend could be 3 days eh....

During the weekend, I had recieved my CD through the post from Steve, Foto Retro.

And rummaged through the CD and found some images which would look great once edited, so thanks to Steve for allowing me to edit the photo's they looked really cool.

Wanna see some :P?

I did my own hair and make-up for the photo shoot and thought it was best to keep it nice and plain.

So I went with dark eyeliner and natural looking coloured lips.

This was our final look which we did upstairs on the bed at Saracen House, amazing little studio!!

This was our 3rd look which we tried, we used the fan machine to make the effect of the dress blowing.

This was one of our strongest looks!

I love this corset!! Was so tight but so worth it :)

Feedback would be great!

Love and Peace

Photo by Andrew Griffiths

Goooood morning all!

Guess what day today is.... Grim Friday! :P The weather really does need perking up today.

I am currently sitting at my desk and it looks like I'm about to go to bed, this weather is seriously like Winter! What the hell ever happened to our summer? I think we had about a week of sun...

Anyways on to a happier note! The lovely Andrew Griffiths owner of Saracen House sent me a photo last night of a Latex Dress by Pandora Deluxe Latex. It is a gorgeous set which I love so much! Really vintage like.

Here is the photo, I played around with the editing, let me know your thoughts :)

Make-up Artist & Hair Styling - Emma Downes

Love this shot and the background is so lush!

I think I may have to resort to making my own latex soon as it's so difficult to work with designers.

Have a great Friday guys! I really want a Mc Donalds of Chinese hahaha!

Foto Retro Final Results

Recently I did a Photo Shoot with Steve, Foto Retro where we shot in a lovely studio called Saracen House.

I have been there quite a lot recently and I love it!! Great place!

If your interested in booking me for a shoot, I defiantly recommend booking Saracen House. Andrew Griffiths is the owner and he is full of fun and a totally awesome guy! Best Studio in Milton Keynes in my opinion.

http://www.saracenhouse.co.uk/

When I arrived at Saracen House I was greeted by a very friendly guy, Steve.

I've not worked with Steve before so it was a great pleasure working with him and he also bought a long some Stockings and Garnments from Stockings & Romance which gave him the stuff.

We did lots of different looks and yesterday he sent me some images so I could have a sneaky peak and I love them!!

Here are some of them;

This hat was a Prop which Steve bought a long and it worked with my outfit!

I bought the outfit from Camden in London last year, came in to great use ;)

This pink item of clothing I am wearing is by Stockings and Romance and so are  the stockings.

They are Nylon Stockings and are way better than the cheap crap you buy from Ann Summers.

Here we used my Pink feather bower and used the bed upstairs to create this image.

Here is another image of me wearing the sailor like dress.

At last but not least here is also another image with the Sailor Dress on.

These knickers were also by Stockings and Romance and the Hat prodivided was by Steve.

Another shot of the feather bower look.

Ring by me!!! I made it :D! Will be selling my rings soon hehe.

What do you think?

Latex Designers

Hello everyone!

Hope everyone is well, my blog is doing great recently and really appreiciate having you guys checking it out :)

People are welcome to comment on my blog posts so do let me know if there are things that you think I should blog about or what you would like to see!

I am currently looking for Latex Designers to collaborate with. I have recently worked with Pandora Deluxe Latex and hopefully got another designer interested. I understand that a lot of Designers are extremely busy and probably get asked a lot but if anyone does know of a latex designer who might be interested please do shout at me hehe.

I have just bought some awesome new shoes which would rock in a shoot and also going to buy some really cool boots soon too! I'm really interested in the Alternative Look at the moment and would like to show my versatility. And I also just LOVE Latex its amazing stuff!

I hope  to one day make my own, hopefully by this year!!

Love & Peace

Tyra Banks

If anyone here watches America's Next Top Model, they will know exactly who Tyra Banks is.

She is such an icon to me as she is just awesome!

Incredible face, great body and a lovely person in general.

She has big legs but a slim little top half and she is just an inspiration to me.

I've got about 4 episodes to Catch up on on ANTM which is showing on Living at the moment.

It's season 10 which is quite behind haha but I could actually watch all the Episodes again and again and again!

Here is one of my favourite close up picture of Tyra, her eyes are piericing, fierce and awesome!

This is another one of Tyra's photo's which I love sooo much!

I want to do something similar to this except in my own unique way.

The colours I think I would like to be brighter, maybe more pastel colours.

But for Tyra, she rocks and totally owns this shot!

I love this too, I think it's so totally cute!! :D

Shiney :)

Here are 2 images from Andrew Griffiths owner of Saracen House in Milton Keynes.

Amazing little studio with great day rates!

They have great lighting equiptment, backdrops and props.

They have a gorgeous little make-up room too.

There are goals which I would have never have done without your inspiration and influence.

Car Booting

This weekend I did a Car Boot Sale at Potterspury in Milton Keynes.

We were selling as it is so much fun and need that extra bit of cash!

Once we had arrived, they gave us this really shitty spot (im not guna lie) it was rubbish but we seemed to attract quite a lot of customers. I find that on a colder day there are less sellers so from a sellers point of view its better but when its hot theres loads of stalls and not enough people to make profit on...

Our view from our stall

So we had just set up and I was too excited to just stand there so I went around the Car Boot Sale to have a look and see if I could get my mits on anything exciting. As I was going round I come across 3 tops which I found all of which were obviously see through (haha) I love sheer see through stuff or things which are patterny and you can see skin underneath, so I grabbed them and one for 20p!! :O

Then I was just strolling around and minding my own business and come across these shoes which would be AMAZING for latex shoots! I went over to them and was speaking to them and actually found out she was a make-up artist and she gets given stuff from the shoots she does and she sells them and luckily enough she had some shoes!! I grabbed them straight away and couldnt believe how much of a bargin I had just found.

The shoes I picked up :)

I also found this awesome china hat which has lace going around the top, not too sure how I am going to keep it on the head but it was £1 so I cant go wrong!

I need to book in some more shoots! Get in touch if your interested :)

Here are some pics I took yesterday of my new skirt I bought on Saturday <3

 

Love & Peace

Photo Shoot with Saracen House

Hey all!

I did a Photo Shoot yesterday with Andrew from Saracen House yesterday.

Saracen House, is a beautiful studio based in Milton Keynes, Stony Stratford.

http://www.saracenhousestudio.co.uk/

Check out their website to see more of their work, I totally recommend anyone booking a photo shoot there. It's full of fun, there are some great backdrops, lighting and props! The guys know exactly what they are doing and have some exceptional images.

Yesterday I took Emma Downes who is a great Make-Up Artist friend of mine who makes me laugh so much :). I picked her up and we made our way to the shoot, when we got there we got all of our stuff out and started thinking of make-up and hair ideas! Always good fun....

We firstly thought we would start with our 'Paint Look' We had the choice of going with either Yellow Paint or Blue Paint, so we thought that yellow would be more effective and it looked amazing! I can't wait to see the images! Here is a sneaky preview;

The photo's on the back of the camera look sooooo cool!

The lighting is spot on too which I love, people that know how lighting works = perfect person for me! haha

We then went on to do a Latex Look which we shot Pandora Deluxe Latex.

I modelled a Black and Red dress and we had 2 whips which were hilarious props to play with and the photo's look amazing and the dress looks ridiculously shiney <3

Can't wait to see those photo's either!!

Pandora's Latex is amazing do check it out;

http://www.pandoradeluxe.com/

Me and Emma pulling a funny face with the Black and Red Latex Dress.

We then went on to doing another Latex Outfit, I did shoot that on Friday but we only got the top with a gorgeous Teddy Bear, which will be my next post :)

So we decided to shoot the bottom of the skirt too so that Pandora can use them for her website!

After the latex shoots we then went on and did a rather glamourous look, which was a see through play suit with long sleeves. I had bought bunny ears, tail and neck bow with me so we did some really cool shots of me pretending to be a bunny.

We then ditched the bunny ears and shot it without the ears and they look awesome!!

This was my make-up for the bunny look;

At last but not least, I had designed a skirt, top, braclet and hat out of newspaper.

Totally random I know, but I really wanted to get creative and decided that I was going to make a dress out of newspaper and I did it!

The photo's look awesome and the folds in the dress and top work great casting shadows.

I'm so chuffed!

Here are some flowers I made and attached them to the top;

So I think overall we did a fantastic shoot especially with all the make-up looks as well.

I will get blogging when I have some photo's of the shoot :).

Have a great day!

Photo Shoot with Foto Retro

On Saturday 13th August, I had been offered to do a photo shoot in the morning with Steve, Foto Retro at Saracen House in Stony Stratford, Milton Keynes. I've not done a Photo Shoot with Steve before but he was such a friendly gentleman and helped me in with my bags and took me to the make-up/dressing room. I love shooting at Saracen house, it's a cute little studio with a gorgeous make-up area. I feel like a celebrity with all the lights around the mirrors lol. Steve showed me the items of Boudoir outfits I was going to be shooting on the day and told me that I was able to keep 2 items :).

I had also bought some clothing and props of my own and I got stuck in straight away!

I started doing my make-up and curled my hair;

I went for a natural look in the eyes with a little bit of eye liner top and bottom.

I then changed into my first outfit which was topless with some cute little panties;

Once we did this shot we then decided to use my Corset and Suspenders with Nylon Stockings.

The outfit looked gorgeous so we did the first part of the shoot with natural make-up and then later on adding a red flower to my hair with some red lips.

And heres a side view of the corset, the back of it is gorgeous with all of the lace.

This is me with the corset on, just had to be tided up at the back and change into suspenders and stockings.

Once we had done this look we then went on to trying out an outfit that I had bought with me.

I bought this dress from Camden when I used to visit London a lot last year, I love it!

I have a little garter with a red little rose on which I put around the top of the stocking. 

I kept my hair curly and made my lips red :).

But we had not finished yet hehe.

This was then the other look which we did and I wore the dress without a bra as I love just being naked ;)

And we thought that we should keep the suspenders and the stockings on, we used a fan so that the dress would go up, so hopefully we got a good shot out of it!

And at last but not least our final look was another item from Steve which he was given to from a Company.

I cant remember the company name but when I do ill put a link up.

This is the outfit that I kept :D I loved it as soon as it was on!

I didnt wear anything under neath and kept it with no top on.

We shot upstairs on the bed and used a feather bower to cover up naughty areas ;)

I am looking forward to seeing the outcome of the photos as we didn't go through them together but I'm sure they will be really cool!

xoxo
