SNEAK PEEK

This is Karen in casual elegance and refined simplicity, and it's her second photo shoot with us. The first time she was all glam in sequins and sparkle, this time she wanted to capture the best version of her everyday self.

It's always an honour to photograph people for the second, third or even fourth time. It's even more of an honour when they start at the beginning of their journey telling us they never like a photograph of themselves or have never taken a good photo.

Changing people's minds isn't easy but they soon realise that they are beautiful in their own way and that a bad photograph is just a "poorly created photograph" not a reflection of them. Creating a great photograph takes more effort, thought and experience than people expect, yes a good camera helps, but you need to know how to use it. And after 18yrs I think I've got it mastered.
