Earlier in the year I was fortunate enough to be invited along to the open day organised by Eric Murphy and his staff at Banana Studio in Newcastle. It was a really good day out all round, not only from the point of view of working with some great models but also being able to chat with lots of other photographers whose work I was familiar with from various modelling web sites. Had a really fun shoot with Natalie Overton who was lovely and very patient when I was trying to explain the images I was looking to achieve. The star of the day however had to be Demari Vi Sith who had travelled up from London for the weekend. Demari has a really unique style, influenced by her strong dance background, and was an absolute joy to shoot. Made my job really easy as all I really had to do was push the button!! Even though I only worked with her for a relatively short time I felt very happy with the images we created, in no small part due to her skill and professionalism. Definitely someone who I would like to work with again. Big thank you to Eric and his staff for making us feel so welcome.
