Juggling project ideas

Lately I have had to many ideas going through my head, finding it hard to concentrate on one and feel like I'm getting nowhere fast.

I have had meetings on one idea. For the other I will be using more creatives on a test basis, juggling funds.

I have been location scouting for both projects, looking forward to spring and summer. Hoping for nicer weather.

Step by step.

Looking forward to meetings I have arranged and pieces I have had delivered. Hopefully I will soon be able to bring more details to light on my projects. Meanwhile lots of snow, I wish I had a shoot arranged tomorrow but will be hopefully shooting something soon - with lots of ideas in mind is very frustrating not being able to get them out into images. Bit by bit I will work on things, most likely slowly this year but I am aiming for quality over quantity. 

A couple of projects

I have a couple ongoing things - both are costly so will need time and planning.
One is a photography project and the other is a slightly different direction that I am excited to start work on. This will still involve photography but hopefully will be able to shed more light in 2013.

I can't quite believe how fast this year has gone.. I started off thinking I would plan a couple of shoots per month at least but because of time and being busy only a handful came off but they were still costly.

Highlight was defiantly going to NYC and photographing in Central Park. I have met more lovely people this year who are very creative individuals. Getting to work in Muncaster Castle was also amazing. 
Travelling to London for a Battersea Park shoot was a little out of the blue but again got to work with such great people.

Everyone I have worked with this year have put in 100% and I admire that. Lots of people I would like to work with again in the future.

Behind scenes Eden shoot

Some behind the scenes photos from the shoot on Sunday with Eden model & Kelly O makeup & hair & John C Taylor assisting.

We focused on knitwear and simple locations. We were working on top of the car park in Preston using the simple backdrops of blank walls and concrete textures. Also the open space of Preston city landscape as a backdrop.

As can be seen from the floor it had just been heavily raining with grey skies so we started indoors but it soon brightened up and was lovely within half an hour. It was freezing and the team did really well even in the cold conditions, I love the shots I got from the shoot.

We did a couple different looks to vary the shots and they both worked well, it took half a day which was good time management. 

Look forward to working with everyone again on another collaboration.

Eden shoot

Here are a few of the various shots from the shoot on sunday 25th

We went to a car park and also a park & cafe to get a couple different looks.

Eden Nemesis models was lovely to work with as was Kelly O makeup & hair.
