Little sisters photography

My younger Sister has recently taken up photography as one of her A-level subjects, starting at AS-Level. She bought a Nikon D60 SLR to take her photographs with, and together we have been having lots of fun taking pictures together, and it is usually me in front of the camera.

For her first project she received an A, and I would like to think that it is my contributions that have helped, however, she would never agree.
In the first project she had a free run of what she shot and the style of it, now for the second the theme is advertising.
Here are some of my favourite from the first project and a few fun ones.

Fashion Antidote to January Blues

Christmas is officially over, everyone is back at work and most have probably broke their New Years resolutions already. It's a fact that January is depressing, (even if it is my birthday month).

Usually the first to suffer with January blues, I am feeling surprisingly upbeat at the moment. A very chilled and quiet Christmas and New Year has left me ready and prepared for all the challenges this year has, and what better way to start than a new job.

Finishing my internship at Dune Press Office before the holidays, I have now started a new placement at Fashion Antidote a fashion school based in Brick Lane, it is run by Susan Backhouse, previously a fashion designer herself, Susan's collections were sold in Harvey Nichols, Liberty, Topshop and Macy's, so she know's what she is talking about. Course's include; Learn to Sew, Illustration, Design and Fashion Business.
My role is in PR & Marketing of the business as Susan wishes to expand, with idea's such as Fashion Holidays to Ibiza watch this space.
