Michelle Clark Graham Five Years of Collaboration

Another post about a regular collaborator after my previous post about my work with Olga Barrassi, it occurred I have never written or posted about my collaborative shoots with Michelle Clark Graham MUA. we have worked together over five years usually a couple of times a year, having lost all my edited images from previous shoots due a external disk dying on me going through images from previous shoots had proven time consuming and also allows me the opportunity to re-evaluate and have a new attempt at processing images with improved skills.

The first time we worked together was 2014 with a model called Oanna who was from Romania, working and living in Birmingham.

Later in 2014 we shot around The Custard Factory on a Bank Holiday weekend, the theme being a vintage with models Sarah Jayne Parker and pin up specialist Violet Ecstasy.

 Again from 2014 a shoot based on a idea of the make up look from the film Maleficent and a image of the poet Edith Sitwell by the photographer Horst as inspiration, with our subject for the day Sherelle


Our only shoot of 2015 was a messy and fun one involving powdered paint, which is not the best idea when you suffer with lung and breathing problems, the models involved were Zoe Page and Rubie Marie.




Onto 2017 we where got to work with identical twins Irina and Violeta after initially contacting them the previous year while they were studying at The Birmingham School of Jewellery, the twins got in contact with us still wanting to shoot and were happy to travel up from Watford to do so.

Shelby and Shiro

 First post of the year and a bitter sweet one. I had previously worked model Jaguar Pearce in 2019, we kept in contact via social media and a local photographers and model group we were both members of, We had arranged to do a golden hour shoot in one of the fields close to my home, then the pandemic struck fast forward to June and a date had been arranged and we were lucky with the weather until the afternoon of the shoot when it clouded over, so  no glorious backlit images of Jaguar and her dogs Shelby a Alsatian Malamute and Shiro a Japanese Spitz. We had an hour or so taking images and surprisingly only other couple walking their dog. The bitter part of the shoot was that Shiro had to be put down due canine cancer.

Prescott Hill Climb

Not only my second post in a week or so, a rare non model related posting, once the weather is warmer I will be walking and shooting urban landscapes around my locale. Last August I went to a Prescott Hills Climbing event for the first time. Although not a driver I have an interest in some motor sports and love looking at vintage motors, Sports photography is not my for forte and I have never been good at it, the good thing about the day was although the weather and light was variable, the venue allowed for many vantage points and me to take some landscapes as well.
