Photo Project Focus - Head Shots

To set the scene for you, myself and my two best friends drove out to the outskirts of Edinburgh on a surprisingly sunny day armed with cameras, step ladders and unfocused energy. Between the three of us we scouted a beautiful spot in the gorgeous Vogrie Park, not without plenty of cartwheels, hunger games quotes, snap chats and general immaturity from the three of us. 

We had decided to tackle head shots and wanted to take some photos for my blog and for Chelsea to give to her agency to advertise her singing gigs. At the best of times the three of us struggle to complete the simplest of tasks without messing about so a photo shoot was quite a stretch really. Somehow though we did muddle through and the results are rather beautiful if I do say so myself. 

Big thanks must go to Laura for her photography expertise and general ability to make things look better and somehow making things run more smoothly. Also the light that day was stunning so that was a huge help, and of course my model Chelsea who takes a lot of scathing abuse on these shoots but always delivers and we always produce some beautiful shots.



































I thought I would link to my two lovely friends
Instagram and YouTube accounts down here as they are both singers and you should definitely check them out.

Photo Project #2

Rebel Rebel!



The second look Chelsea and I decide do for our Photo Project was a grungier look which was inspired by a lot of photos we saw on tumblr and pinterest. We found an amazing abandoned house that looked burned out that was next to a deserted building site. So with caution of course we decided to take the photos there which we thought fitted in nicely with rebel/punk styling.









The photos above we did at the end of the day and needed editing because of the light we used. I also wanted to add that neither Chelsea or I are trying to glamorize smoking it was just a creative choice for the style of photos. We are both non smokers and aren't looking to offend anybody again it was just a creative choice for the photo project.






































Again special thanks to Chels! This photo shoot was pretty physically draining for her haha! Chelsea is an amazing singer and has a YouTube channel that I will link here and she also has twitter which I will link here be sure to check her covers out!
