I had a real interest in photography so alongside working full time I began a photography degree on the side. Part of my course was to go back in time and see how photography had evolved and I took an interest in the fashion & documentary world of photography. Seeing how over time photo’s had more airbrushing, more fake images, more unrealistic portrayal of how men and women really looked and knowing this affected a lot of young people and their mental health and I was angry, so I decided to create my own personal project. I decided to put a local socia media post inviting people to come to my house and have their photo’s taken, no make up, no airbrushing just real and raw. I expected maybe one or two replies…… I was innundated and had to close my post after a coupe of hours.

I had the best couple of weeks after that photographing real people in a real and honest but still beautiful and flattering way, helping them to feel completely at ease in front of the camera and have fun at the same time! We all had a blast, I even had a whole party of belly dancers turn up, that was wild!!

This is how it all started and I continue to photograph in my style, real, raw, honest but fun, flattering and an utter blast!
