A Year in Review

What a year! 2019... You've been fabulous!

Here are some of my highlights:

Mademoiselle-12

• Winning 2 Silver Awards with the Guild of Photographers - a highly prestigious national competition with incredibly high standards.

Joker-121

• Being a finalist in the Image of the Year competition with my image of the Joker as portrayed by G Brodie Model. From the 1000s of images they receive each month, I am in the final 10 and will find out the results at a glitzy awards ceremony in February (any excuse to get dressed up!)

Lyris-26

• Shooting with some of the finest corsetières in the world at the Oxford Conference of Corsetry held at Jesus College, Oxford. (Image Marie Devilreaux wearing Lyris Design). A huge honour to be asked.
