BEACH BUMS

I can't believe it's October and we're still enjoying the beach every weekend. This long Summer has been wonderful. I do wonder whether that means another very cold Winter and Spring though. Time to stockpile some wood for the fires!

ORIGINAL SATCHEL STORE

Some images from a recent fashion story for The Original Satchel Store on their new soft tote and satchel range...

Anna and Martin; an engagement on the beach

I'm so pleased to see Anna and Martin's engagement shoot on the beautiful new fine art wedding blog Wedding Sparrow.

These engagement pictures may look calm and serene but all three of us were nearly stranded out at sea when the tide came rushing in unexpectedly. Luckily some local lifeguards came to give us the nudge to get off the beach. 'Are you doing a Hollister shoot?' one of them asked - well, Anna and Martin are just that gorgeous!

Looking at the tide, we thought we had 15 minutes or so to move but then we noticed the water was coming towards us at speed. 'How long have we got?' Anna asked the lifeguards. 'About a minute,' came the answer. We grabbed our shoes and ran but not before stopping to grab a few shots by a pink buoy ;0)

ROAD TRIP

I recently went on a road trip in a vintage VW camper van to shoot a fashion story for The Original Satchel Store and their gorgeous new tote bags and soft leather satchels. We high-tailed it down to Beachy Head on the stunning south coast during a windy Summer day before heading to the beach in Eastbourne. The results are just beautiful so whilst Im working on those, here's a few behind the scenes shots....
