Shooting.

 I'm doing a little story for a textiles magazine.
Frankly, I am excited, but we'll see how it goes.
I might end up on the cutting room floor.
Can happen.
My dear friend J did the shoot.
She is an absolute perfectionist.
Very generous with her time and attention.





 She wouldn't have a bar of my light-box bathtub.
 We had to do the full catastrophe set up on the rear deck.
A flashing snoot included.
Silver 'umbrellas'. The works.
 My little light-box was not needed.
Sniff.


 I will stick to what I know.
Do you?

    I rather like the red. And the pink...well you know me and PINK! I think a bathtub is a very clever make-do light box actually. I must try that. You are cleverness personified Flora, I tell you. Mimi xxx

      J is a perfectionist with light!!! The light box did not cut the cheese! But, the tub works well within reason...xx

    Oh Mel
    How exciting. Can't wait to hear what magazine it's for - BEST of luck to BE published.
    I am subscribed to "Cloth Paper Scissors", so it would be an total bonus if I open an upcoming edition and see your work.

    And the Bathtub Photo/Light Box?
    It's perfect!

    I've never thought of using the bathtub for a light box effect, that's genius I think! Shame it wasn't used, but you can always try that trick again next time a photo shoot is needed! :)

    Looking forward to hearing that your items were featured in the magazine! :)
