Inspiration

Source: weheartit

I've been doing some research for our new uni project on hoisery brand Jonathan Aston. I picked out some of my favourite images from weheartit.com to get some inspiration for our project and to see what kind of consumer is buying tights, and how they are using them. There's this whole world of tights out there that i've discoverd! I think an amazing pair of tights can really make an image, and i love the poses and shapes that have been created in these photos to allow maximum focus on the tights.

This editorial for 25 magazine is literally the best thing I've seen in ages. The mixture of photography with illustration is so exciting and has created some really amazing compositions. It's really refreshing to see something different amongst endless editorials of the same thing. Also i think the title of the shoot works really well in portraying the mood of the shoot.

Reminds me of the photomontage days in a level photography! Can someone please teach me how to do this?

actually amazing.

Wild Thing....

I've seen loads of this multiple layering around at the moment, and it's really inspired me for the shoots I'll be doing in the summer. In this photo, i love the innocence of the white clothing, and the contrasting colour pallet. Reminds me of my new angel dress I'm obsessed with...

Blue is the Colour...


Dip died hair is literally everywhere at the moment. It's definitely something that would look rediculousss on me, however it looks amazingly hot on a select few! This photo really caught my eye. I love the contrast of the blue, the pink and the leopard print..yum!

Tattoo, Tattoo

Model: Aline Weber
Photographer: Paola Kudacki
Stylist: Keegan Singh
Aline looks so naturally beautiful in this image. I love the simplicity of using black and white and it always seems to remind of the days when i first got into photography and was obsessed with David Baileys work. Weber's tattoo creates a focal point, and brings it into the 21st century.
i loveee.

Make Love Not War

I've just come across this shoot by Steven Meisel, the god of Italia Vogue. I love how the shoot blurs the lines between feminine and masculine. I like how they have portrayed this shoot, really capturing scenes of everyday war, but putting a romantic twist on things. So i agree, make love not war, especially if you can look like that!

Prada


This Prada dress is to die for.

All Blured Up...


Elle Italia
The 4th image is amazing. Sometimes i love the contrast of seeing a blury image.
As if anyone can look this hot when they go shopping?!

This shoot inspired by the sixties is incredible. I love its simplicity. Can someone turn me into the model in the bottom image please? she is amazing.

The Girl of my Dreams...

My friend Emma introduced me to the amazing Lula magazine forever ago. I was literally blown away by the shoots. With all this dreaming of photography I so nearly just bought a subscription, instead i went for a Vogue subscription...how have i not subscribed before? £20 for 10 issues-amazing.

Home Sweet Home


I have finally got back to reality and am sitting in my uni room in the absolutely freezing Nottingham. I couldn't want to be back in the Dominican Republic more right now.

Holiday was amazing. Coming home to depressing weather and a whole load of Easter work was not so amazing!

Catching up on new editorials i have missed whilst I've been away has been fun fun fun and left me feeling so incredibly inspired.

Sometimes i wake up and i wish i did photography. The more editorials i see, and the more beautiful images i see, the more i want to get out there and take photos again then spend hours editing them.

i actually can't wait to start planning shoots for the summer holidays, maybe it might make me feel a little warmer after doing Nokia in the freeezing for 3 hours!
