Super exciting to be able to share some images from a shoot I did a few days ago of awesome, natural beauty, Olivia Harriet. Model, actor and traveller, Olivia is equally at home riding bareback on the seashore or backpacking in the Brazilian jungle and the perfect choice for the bohemian style shoot I had in mind. Even better, we were able to shoot in her friend’s amazing eclectically furnished home, full of up-cycled furniture, bric-à-brac and North African objets d’art.

So nice to have plenty of time to slow things down and really think about what I was doing for once. A super fun day! Lots of laughs creating beautiful images with plenty of breaks for tea and hugs with Olivia’s incredibly handsome, enormous black German shepherd, Jax.

In a sunny corner of the conservatory, a rustic wood and wrought iron door sits right next to a distressed, up-cycled white cabinet. The stained wooden floor boards are partly covered by a piebald calfskin rug and an azure wall adds a splash of colour to a scene otherwise full of the soft tones of natural materials. Place a beautiful urban mermaid in that spot and you surely can’t fail to take a really striking image.
