Natasha is a natural and sensual beauty, every image always a great success. She needs no elaborate garments, just a piece of flowing silk.

This painterly image of Jessica turned out exactly the way I envisaged. Her slender arms give it a poetic feel, it describes ultimate female beauty matching the soft flowing fabrics.

This beautiful model acted as the most stunning evil fairy.. always making magic with Jessica.

My Model Jessica changed her hair colour and an explosion of magical colours like deep ruby, red wine and copper exploded in front of my lens...

Every so often, magic happens in my studio, this beautiful Pixi came to visit and we had so much fun. The big Peacock chair was covered in flowers matching the outfit that I made with different coloured tule fabric. The pixie ear hiding under her hair added the final touch of magic. My Pixi lady is called Jessica.

I have always been fascinated by the Greek Goddess Aphrodite. She was the goddess of love, pleasure and beauty. In many of my conceptual images I use flowing fabrics and the beauty of the female form.

I enjoy creating my own costumes and to be honest this was suppose to be part of a future creation. I just loved the way the fabric curled and decided it can be used as a frame for some implied sensuality.
