A night at the bus station

I've got a few of the final shots from my night time shoot back and without tooting my own horn, they look pretty great! Was all down to the great team I got to work with, they're all super talented so check out their work! Here we gooo...






The photographer was Richard Tarr, he lit this whole shoot with torches, some pretty clever stuff so take a look at his other work here! 

The makeup was done by Miss Chanelle Harrald, one of my best friends and a very talented MUA! Follow her on twitter to see everything she gets up to @Makeup_CC

The beautiful model was Miss Kaily O'Brien, someone I think I'm going to be friends with from a long time to come thanks to this shoot! 

The styling was all done by meee, I actually got my bum into gear and set myself out a facebook page and twitter account so please like my page here and follow me at @veejstyle

oh hiyaa!

I have been sooo bad at blogging recently, but I'm gonna try and get back into it now as I have lots of exciting things happening at the moment! I started my new internship last week at the vintage boutique 'What Alice Found', follow the tab to my other blog to see my intern diary and see what i'm getting up to, it's super exciting! 

As well as that I have been planning for another photoshoot with a photographer from my university which is now upon me and is happening tonight! Were shooting in the dark which will be exciting as this is something I've not done before and he has some pretty cool lighting techniques planned! I won't give to much away about the location because otherwise it will ruin the surprise of the final shots but I think it's gonna be great! I've gone for a 90's neon sport kinda look, think Fresh Prince Of Bel Air, strong 2013 women style ;)! I've been mega prepared for this shoot and got all the clothes / accessories together pretty early and even went out today and brought myself a cute little pink clothes rail...I like to be organised you see!? Well here's a little sneak peak of the outfits but stay tuned for some behind the scenes shots and then the final outcomes! xxx VJ

taddaaa

And here's the final outcomes from my earlier shoot in the New Forest too! 









Although the last few weeks of term were insanely busy with hand ins, I am sooo glad I went ahead and did these shoots anyway as I really enjoyed them and styling is something I definitely want to carry on do as much as I can and work on in the future! If anyone has any tips or advice for me then plleaassee comment :) xxx VJ

Colour Pop!


I actually did this shoot a couple of weeks ago now but I've been so busy with final hand ins at uni that I just haven't had the time to blog at all! Now i'm home for Christmas with a few days to spare before starting back at work so I'm gonna catch up! 

This photo shoot was soooo much fun! The idea behind it was mean girls / clueless style clothes, quite cute and preppy but with an added attitude and LOTTSSS of colour! I got to have a little online spending spree and spent a couple of hundred pounds on a whole bunch of cute little skirts and crop tops. We had a bit of a last minute panic when the models dropped out but at the last minute we went from having no models to three! More than we expected, so I had a bit of a panic thinking I didnt have enough, but after raiding my housemates wardrobes we had more than enough and got some really great shots! We also had a bunch of really cool 90's themed props which were a lot of fun in the photos. So here's some behind the scenes shots and a few of the final outcomes...hope you like them =D



















And here's a few of the final photo's below!




Let me know what you think xxx VJ

Christmas Carousel

Christmas is upon us and everywhere is lit up with pretty lights and decorations all around. Unfortunately I am a massive Scrooge and don't get very excited about the Christmas Festivities, I know I know, what a grump, I wish I liked it! HOWEVER...me and my house mates decided to take a little trip down the Christmas Market in Bournemouth Town square before we all went home and something strange came over me. I got strangely excited and giddy by the whole thing! I'm not sure if it was the one glass of wine I had or the fact that I was over exhausted after my final hand in but I was like a small child! So here's a few little photos to capture this rare moment! 

Hot Chocolate out of a boot!!



Treated ourselves to a little German sausage, had to be done




I got a little bit over excited by the carousel and made my house mate come on with me!

               








Yes, we were the only two people on it....
And that was our little christmassy adventure x
