Independent Styling Shoot

Over the christmas holidays me and my friend decided to produce another styling shoot together, the "inspiration travels from overseas from the masters of minimalism in design, Scandinavia". In this shoot the aim was to capture the innovative, distinctive and bold ready to wear shapes, whilst keeping a minimalistic touch. I decided that a neutral backdrop would work well for this shoot and I knew a renovated pub at the end of my road that would be perfect… The neutral grey tone of the pubs exterior was muted and soft which contrasted really well with the prominent, sharp visuals of the clothing. 

Another aim for this shoot was to promote the clothing and accessories worn by the model in a fun and inventive way, it was agreed that we needed a full body shot to really capture the essence of the outfit and close ups on the two major accessories; Vagabond shoes and Acne bag. A composition that couldn't of worked better even if we tried was the depiction of the Vagabond shoes with the colour coordinated cat perched perfectly next to her feet… This shot was a perfect way of portraying fashion in a unique and dynamic way, I am really pleased with the results and I have decided that I will try and incorporate more quirky responses (like the cat) without making the images look to contrived.
