Airplanes





Sorry i haven't blogged in a while, but it's been very hectic. I've gone from opening a modelling agency back to styling shoots for my final major project. As i say HECTIC!! These things happen though. So i thought i'd show some images from the shoot that i did at the rochester airport. Which went down a treat i think. So thankful that they allowed us to shoot in such an amazing location.
Want to say a big thank you to the make up artist Chontell, photographers Sebastien & Per, Models, Elena & Will..

Missions





So, this week has been pretty eventful, found out that I do not want to do styling for my final major project but instead start up my own model agency!! Oh yea!! I want to freelance style on the side. I just thought I was selling my soul to bang out 20 shoots, to a standard that I probably wouldn't be happy with. I also got a tattoo with my dad (we have a weird family) got it done by one of the best tattooist's himself..Phil Kyle (love him sooooo nice). The tattoo I got is huge got a lecture of my mother about it, saying I cannot get another one because i'll look like a gypsy (what that means i have no idea!! Mothers for you!! 

So I'm still doing some shoots that I want to do, such as  the airport shoot which is going to branch out to a both men's & women's styling..Also still gonna shoot with the man James Frew as I think that is not to be missed!! 

I spent today with the fashion man himself Mr Humphris trying to find locations for his shoot. Which will be amazing. We ended up breaking an entering into an old hospital. Scared the living pants out of me I tell you now..Then ended up breaking (i say breaking meaning jumping over fences and climbing up a hill and walking about 2 miles) into an old Fort!! It was a nice historical day out with a bit of crime!! Love it!!

Tonight i'm off to LDN baby for the weekend!! I'm sure i'll have some nice pics to put up after my inspiration weekend!!

The Aftermath




So, I had my shoot on monday which was in this amazing flat in Notting Hill actually wanted to live there..But i don't think the photographers friend (who owned the flat) would of liked that!! I'm gonna put up some images of behind the scenes. Matt's (the model) first shoot and I think he did himself proud and me. It was nice to see an old school friend Holly (who did the make up) as I hadn't seen her in years.

It was funny returning the clothes that I used from the shoot..Slightly unnerving they make you feel very bad for returning clothes i tell you now!! After I returned all the suits from that shoot I went and bought about £300 worth of trainers..I wish they weren't men's and were in my size as there amazing. I've already come up with a story of why I'm returning them..My imaginary boyfriend cheated on me so I'm returning the trainers i bought him. Oh yea who would second guess that??

I did the still life shoot today with Steve which went really well, he's a little lighting genius I tell you now and fast which is amazing as I'm not feeling tip top today. Need to go see the dentist!!

Hope you enjoy some behind scenes pics..

First Shoot & Welcome

Yo, so first of all for the people reading this that don't know me, my name is Jade and i'm in my final year at UCA Rochester..And at the moment i'm emmersed into my final major project. Which i'm specialising in mens fashion and making a menswear book. I know sounds hard..but i do like a good challenge.

So tomorrow is my first shoot which is being held in London (Notting Hill to be exact), a few things have gone wrong such as model pulled out so been rushing around for a model but thank god i know some hotties wiv the bodies..and managed to snag myself one for the shoot!! This is the first of 20!! Which has to be completed by May 18th. Exciting, but slightly shitting myself about it..

I'm also thinking about names for my book, anyone got any good names for a mens aspirational book let me know..
