About me
From young I have always looked at magazines, billboards, adverts, music videos, websites and wonder who put these outfits together? What was the reasoning for the colour palette and the texture? What was the inspiration? These questions led me to study Fashion and Fashion Styling, through out my studies I have come to realise I have an overwhelming sense of achievement when an photoshoot is over and sense of joy when images are realised. These two feelings will always keep me thriving to become a Fashion Stylist.
