What do you love most about modelling?
The things i love most about modelling are all the aspects of fashion modelling, the feel good aspect, the build up to the photos, getting hair and makeup done with a variety of different styles and seeing the outcome of the finished images.
What’s been the highlight of your career so far? I'd say the highlights of my career have been doing a lot of bridal photo shoots and bridal fairs as well as being in a magazine for my friend Becca Rose Beauty, this book was called '111 tips for the bride to be ' which was an online book. Also i've had the opportunity to model stunning handmade gowns and accessorizes from the designer Kathryn Russell. Tell us about some of your recent shoots. Just recently i have done a street fashion based shoot with John Jobling based around Newcastle and the outcome of this shoot produced some great images and a lot of photographers have shown interest in the photos and working with me, also a few month back worked with Grey Photography doing fashion and fitness based shoot which also produced great images, Currently have another shoot arranged with him at the end of the month. |
What really goes on behind the scenes as a model?
Behind the scenes is exciting the preparation of getting everything organised, working out the type of images you are going for, Deciding on the hair and makeup which goes with that style of shoot and which accessories you're going to use, And the most important thing setting your technique and poses right so you get the best from the shoot and a good selection of images.

Which photographers in the industry do you most enjoy working with?
I've worked with a lot of different photographers over my years of modelling this year ive worked with Grey Photography quite a lot and been happy with the images i've received, also enjoyed working with John Jobling, Richard Davison Photography & Picture perfect Photography doing a variety of different styles.
Define your personal style.
I'd say my personal style varies between High street fashion, Party look, and a causal jeans boots and top daytime look.
Who would you say is your 'style muse'?
I love the style of Nicole Scherzinger. She always looks great and very fashionable in everything she wears whether that is casual or dresses.

Vogue or Harper’s Bazaar?
I like the styles from Vogue. They have great high street fashion designs. Is there any particular designer piece you are crushing on right now? Kathryn Russell has so many handmade beautiful designs. She makes from scratch. I would love to model many of her pieces, and she was currently designing a dress, which she says, i could model for her. What do you hope to be doing in the next 5 years? Working for a fashion company and doing catwalks would be my dream. If you could be anywhere else but here, where would you go? Wherever the fashion takes me. |
