New work – Fluid dynamics
These little creatures are my latest personal series. They aren’t quite sure of their place in the world yet, but they’re on their way to find out!

This shoot was criminally good fun, and although it was quite a challenge to break things in a visually interesting way, it was nice to be a bit haphazard with the styling to give it an ‘accidental’ feeling. I wanted [...]
