Promotional Photoshoot Pieces.

These pieces pictured below are for a photoshoot promoting the website and career of stylist, curator and general creative girlie Sam Barker. I have collaborated with her a few times before on several photoshoots and exhibitions and like me she is an alumni of Nottingham Trent University. All of these particular pieces she asked me to embroider have text and images that are personal to her / promtional for her business. I loved this project as it was mainly text based and the photoshoot is intended to have a retro / fifties club theme. Am very much looking forward to seeing the images!

Back to Reality...

After a wonderfully escapist weekend away in beautiful Norfolk, it's unfortunately now time to get back to real life! I love a good beach hut, and this particular beach in Wells had some rather gorgeous examples that I have to share with you...
