D & G

Absolute FAIL

Did a shoot with Dina and Georgia last week, really wanted to do it in the abandoned children's hospital had it all planned out got tips on how to break in and everything but nooooo luck.

So we went to the green electricity box round the corner as advised but even on top of that there was a wall and an extra bit a wood that meant it was even harder to climb over without breaking your neck! We went round near the gates and found a decent enough climbing spot but due to amount of beeping cars and dodgy looks we got whilst bums and legs waggling in the air we gave up and went to the gates... which were open. We tried to convince the guard to let us take a few photos but he was havin' none of i'.

After a little heart sinking and planning hatching we stayed round the back of the hospital and used the road and various spaces. I did a roll of black and white and roll of colour which just need to be finished before I develop but i was quite happy with how it turned out, really liked the shadows and it was a really sunny day which also helped. So fingers crossed the photos are good but for now here's some fujis (slightly cropped by the scanner).

Wednesday Night

Had some of the girls round before going to digital for a cheap night out, it doesn't take much for these ladies to get overexcited by a good song but add a dash (or a substantial amount) of alcohol and the dance moves that only the private-ness of your bedroom get to see get their public debut and trust me there were some corkers. The most impressive being Jodie's splits, coming from a short and sometimes shy girl a lot of cameras were flashing.

The sun is shining

school photos

You can't tell from this photo but georgia had serious burn lines!

Needless to say tiny bit of sunshine in Britain and we all get half naked but my god was it a scorcher of a weekend, enjoying the bars on the beaches, sitting by the sea and "getting a tan"

BRING ON SUMMER 2010

Burfday beatings

It's always around May time I start to get excited about my birthday, I think its because my brothers birthday is in May which reminds me about what to expect in 4 months time.


(5th birthday)

This year I will be 19 on the 19Th, I still find it hard to believe that I'm 18 let alone getting older. I guess I've never felt myself getting older physically as you never see yourself through the eyes of others, and I when I think about when I was a young adolescent looking at my sister and her friends at 18 I thought they looked so old but to think of myself as looking that old just spins me out.


(18th birthday)

I feel extra excited for this birthday (I've already made plans which consists of making my birthday last 3 days) maybe its the fact that i will be the age of the date, or the fact that my sister told me 19 was her best year (who also coincidentally has the same birthday as me). But I feel that somehow my birthday has already started I've finally finished sixth form college which feels like a massive weight has been lifted off my shoulders as i hated it pretty much all the time I was there. I feel relaxed at once and am looking forward to 4 months coursework free and not missing the 8.02 bus most mornings. I'm going to actually read books rather than analyse them, make clothes rather than distress pieces of fabric, I plan to keep doing shoots i have an idea I'm eager to start, cycle about town and enjoy my hangovers by laying in bed all day rather than getting up at 7 to go to textiles!!! Thank you college for giving me the best birthday present i could ask for.
