Cooling off

It certainly makes my job easier when you come across back grounds that compliment your outfit, particularly when it’s cold and the light is low. I’ve come to learn plenty about photography in natural light which really stems from starting off with a digital camera in my lounge room and owning no other equipment. I’m not a huge fan of flash photography either but I think you can get more emotion from using natural light.

What I’m wearing:
Dress: Current season Zara
Leather stud bag: Siricco
Lucite cuff: Minty meets Munt
Watch: O’Clock
Pearl earrings: Bead shop which has since shut down
Heels: Verali
Square ring: Turkish jewellery shop
p.s- I did my own hair(well, I always do!) and learnt how to do the fishtail plait or reverse braid by watching YouTube tutorials. God bless YouTube!

    The straight lines of this frock are very flattering, and the nude shoes elongate your legs. Very well put together.
