You may remember that a few weeks ago I posted an outfit that I wore for a photoshoot, the photos from that shoot are now back and I'd like to share them all with you! =)
I worked on the shoot with a lovely fellow called James Stubbs, his flickr can be found here under James Stubbs photgraphy. He was fantastic to work with, friendly, very professional and patient =D

It was up to me to style the shoot and I chose a strawberry theme as I'd recently finished an enamel strawberry flower crown and was chuffed to bits with how it came out, so I knew I MUST wear it!
This is the close up of my face and the flower crown, I love the way my hair curls on my cheek in this photo, and of course my awesome new flower crown ;D
I decided to go with a picnic them alongside the strawberries, since it seemed like a pretty obvious accompaniment. I feel it also took some of the awkwardness out of the shoot as its been a long time since I've done a photoshoot and I've had some trouble with my confidence over the past couple of years.
When I was sat on the picnic blanket for some reason I felt like the photo wasn't going to come out very well at all, but it's probably my second favourite out of all of them. I guess I relaxed a little more since I thought the shots would get deleted anyway XD
I love all of the different colours and textures in these two photos!
This is my absolute favourite from the shoot, the set up looks so serene and relaxing!
Both these photos seem to have a lot of atmosphere to them for me. I like that the model (me!) isn't so much the focus and its more about the surroundings and the clothes. It's good that it could be anyone in these photographs, they are more anonymous and less about the individual.
James also did some editing later on and added black and white filters:
The picnic scene from a different angle, this has such a vintage feel to it! You can imagine digging the photo out of a musty smelling shoe box and reminiscing about it!
When I first saw this photo, I'll admit that I missed the colour and it was a bit of a shock after seeing the rest. But then I took a moment to have a proper look at it and realised that the black and white adds a certain silence to it, leaving me to "hear" the image, I can almost listen to the twigs snapping underfoot, the birds in the trees and smell the earthiness.
I hope you enjoyed looking through my photos and don't think that the way I review them is too weird! I felt that doing this shoot was an exciting opportunity for me and I am glad that I can share the photos with everyone! ^_^
Also, if you haven't already, do check out James' [flickr], his work is fantastic!
