Somewhat surprisingly, 2021 has been a year of photoshoots for me. It all started back in February when I booked a Valentine's webcam shoot with Emerald Photography and had lots of fun swishing around in the corner of my home office wearing a vintage robe and red lace lingerie. Debbie was such fun to work... Continue Reading →
When I started planning photoshoots this year, I was mostly doing it to a) show off some of the lovely lingerie I've collected over the years, and b) because I enjoy meeting photographers and becoming a part of their creative process. I find photography fascinating, it's been a hobby of mine for some time, and... Continue Reading →
There's no denying that this year has been a difficult one, and most people's lives have changed dramatically in ways we couldn't have imagined twelve months ago. Something a lot of us are coming to terms with is how our bodies have changed due to a reduction in the amount of movement in our daily... Continue Reading →
It's been a while since I had a photoshoot. Back when my hobby was burlesque, I was in front of the camera quite a lot and was certainly no stranger to posing in my undies.

Four years on and the site was looking a bit dated, so... Continue Reading →
Back in January, I reviewed Karolina Laskowska's bespoke lingerie service. At the end of the post I said that I had a photoshoot planned and now, finally, the time has come to tell you all about it and share some of the shots from that day. I enlisted the camera skills of the fantastic Paul... Continue Reading →
The Vigilant Citizen has, this weekend, flagged up a 'disturbing' photoshoot for Paris Vogue which uses child models. Whether or not featuring children in photographs for a women's fashion magazine is appropriate, I'm not sure that I would describe the images as disturbing. Photographers and the magazines they work for like to find a theme... Continue Reading →
On Sunday I had the pleasure of taking part in a dark and twisted bedtime stories-themed photoshoot. I was Red Riding Hood and Topper was the Wolf - our friends Claire and Benjamin were Sleeping Beauty and the Prince. We'd all rehearsed performances for later that evening, but the shoot was to capture the essence... Continue Reading →
