Miss Watson gets all the best shoots

Throughout my years of sourcing inspirational imagery, compiling mood boards and filling sketchbooks, one face keeps cropping up... 

Some of the most magical and theatrical shots have Emma Watson at their heart. For me personally, I think it is her quintessentially British charm that so many stylists and photographers are drawn to. I am a huge lover of all things English paired with theatrics and beautiful settings. 

Pre 'chop' Emma Watson had a very classical look about her, which leant itself perfectly to shots such as these:

 

Amazing shots and set-ups from Norman Jean Roy. Editorial for Teen Vogue.

 

  

This one makes me smile as the red dress is very reminiscent of Hermione in 'Deathly Hallows 1'

Ellen Von Unwerth is another emerging favourite of mine...

Presently, with her much more edgy look, the editorial style has somewhat changed. I don't favour it AS much, but you can't deny - she is still damn photogenic!

Retro

New Year 2011/12 saw me say goodbye to my beloved HTC phone...not intentionally I might add, it was just one of those NY mishaps. However after mourning its loss throughout the course of Jan I am now happy to announce that a replacement (in secondhand form, courtesy of a kind lady called Sue) is on its way!

What have I missed the most about my little Wildfire? The Retro Cam App of course!

So here are a few of my favourite Retro memories that I managed to salvage on the trusty Facebook...

Wishing for the summer

I love the winter...when we have Christmas in our sights! Now that festive period has past i'm officially in the January funk. We need sunshine not snow! Especially since the Lacock Estate Yard does not do well in the cold-Bertie BMW often goes for a slide on the ice-rink about this time of year.

SO, i'm reliving beautiful days in the long grass, sunshine and a warm breeze...watching Made in Chelsea for the first time. Ahh the days. I'm thinking back to Mayfield, East Sussex where I spent a few days with the fabulous Holly capturing her brilliant fashion creation on camera...
