Photographer Inspiration: Michael Donovan

Michael Donovan imagery utterly transfixes you (but mostly me) with the bazaar and the sexual. Evocative elements of rawness, playfulness and the disturbed are beautifully balanced and cannot be denied. And it is this tantalizingly twisted combination that is a particular weakness of mine.

I'm also intrigued by his experimentation with the medium - whether it appears to be ripping, burning, scrunching, layering or drawing, it adds yet another layer of visual interest and meaning.

Vlada Roslyakova by Nagi Sakai for Tush #26

I just love the use of colour in both accessories and makeup, as well as the playful and sexy nature of the hair styling.

I Assisted These Shoots: WHO's Sexiest People Issue 2011

I know I've been completely absent in the blogging world of late, but styling has been SO fricken crazy, I don't even have words (which is very rare if you know me!)

So here are the results of what I've been up to the last couple of months while assisting Lara Lupish...

I'm dying over these Louis Vuitton pieces that were on set at last week's Who Magazine shoot.

I Assisted This Shoot...

Hey peeps, sorry for being sooo absent of late. Styling has been absolute craziness - and between that and my retail job, there's more or less never a spare moment.

So I assisted Lara Lupish on this shoot for New Idea a couple of weeks ago with photographer Pierre Toussaint and his team - here are some behind the scenes picks...

 AMAZING jewels from Cerrone

Me working hard!
