Shoot with Lucy Pinder

Yesterday was our Lingerie test shoot with Lucy Pinder. After taking me 3.5hrs to get to Ruths, which is usually a 1.5hr journey (just as well I planned for such a disaster on the roads and left ridiculously early), we finally got into the swing of the day.

Our initial plan was to create more of a commercial fashion look with Lucy as opposed to a traditional lingerie shoot. Of course, lingerie is where she excels, so it would be rude not to use this to our advantage, but with the clever styling by the amazing Nadine and Anton, lighting set ups and photography from Ruth, hair by Zoey and me doing makeup, we pulled together some truly gorgeous shots… not to mention her natural beauty. Always makes our job easier!

We stuck to the original gritty theme. Hair was dampened, I used a lot of gloss on the eyes and SFX Sweat down her chest. Lighting was made quite harsh and high contrast and the stylists used some great metal textured accessories, my favourite being a glitzy cropped blazer that picked up the lighting perfectly.

Lucy was so easy to work with, happy to try anything and was very laid back about the shots, which was lovely as it left us to create our vision without any restrictions.

I can’t post any images yet, but of course the second I can… I will!
