Inspiration where do you find it?
Recently we took a family vacation and went to Bali, Indonesia.
It has been 19 years since I have been there, the last time was when Miranda was one year old.
The question that always comes up is where do you get your inspiration from, well most of the time I'm not quite sure, it could be as simple as a book I have read, a movie I have watched, or the models looks. sometimes it is an item I have found.
This shoot was inspired by a couple ideas.
Hannah my youngest daughter, has been very busy with her business Hannah's Hair feathers,
her and her cousin, Hilary spent last summer off to markets, putting in hair feathers for customers and designing feather earrings.
While we were on our vacation we found this head dress. Who would have thought that you would find this in Bali?
So this was the beginning of it all.
Sophie Leach the make up and hair artist, and I been going back and forth with ideas, and this is what we came up with.
These photos were taken up in a Jebel on the way to Hata border.
My lighting assistant, Bryson, a little tired at the beginning of the shoot,
but got into it once we were there.
We were on location about 4 o'clock, it was a little windy at our first stop, so we snuck around into the rocks and found it a little less stressful.
Here is a link to Hannahs Hair feathers, enjoy... always a pleasure.
