'A Picture Perfect Park'

Samsung X Graduate Fashion Week

I was commissioned by Samsung to create an editorial with their new phone, the Samsung Galaxy S21 alongside a written article surrounding my creative process. The article will be released on the Samsung website from May 10th 2021.

"Covid-19 restrictions and lockdown meant I have been cooped up in my house for the past year. Through the cold winter months, I have been imagining of what my ‘perfect day’ would be; with the people I love, the sun beaming, and really just the idea of being free. From here, I knew that this is what I wanted to capture through my imagery. I love telling a story, and this is my drive as a photographer.  You can take inspiration from anything, as long as you have an idea, just go for it!"

“I love  experimenting with different angles and poses whilst shooting too and smartphone photography really encourages this. Smartphones are able to take numerous photos so quickly that you have the chance to experiment more and play around within the shoot. Asking models to stand or lie in what may seem as the most ridiculous poses can work out to be the best images. Don’t be afraid to do the images you want to do! In this shoot, for example, I really wanted to capture an image of my model lying on the grass in an almost collapsed position. I was continuing my story surrounding the ‘perfect day’ post lockdown where all we would want to do is to stretch out and be free outdoors after the months we have been confined to our houses. It was a strange request to ask my model to just lie down, flat out on the grass, but it turned out to be one of my favourite images. Communicating with your models is essential; I always bring my mood boards with me and explain the story behind the editorial before we begin to shoot.”

"Ultimately, seeing the final images is my favourite part as a photographer. Seeing the one small idea you once had in your head turn into a collection of photos you can physically see is magical. I love how photography has become so accessible too; Smartphones now have this amazing camera quality that you don’t need excessive equipment to get great shots and they’re portable too so you can literally take it anywhere you like. I think the biggest tip I can give as a photographer is to find your story and tell it. No matter how small or crazy you think your idea is, just go for it."
