To start off, I have written my main influences down...
*Tim Walker is my favourite photographer! I love everything about his work; the mystical effects, the fairy tale themes, the dramatic clothes, the amazing locations, the impressive lighting, the models, the concepts, it goes on and on. I would absolutely love to meet that man! If anyone knows his number, gimme!
*Sarah Moon is my second favourite photographer because I love how elegant, beautiful and dreamy her photographs are. Whenever I look at one of her images it's like looking into someones dream. I'm also a big fan of the vintage concept which is why I love the style of her photos.
*Music is an obvious influence. I'm a big fan of Florence & the machine, the oldie bands obviously (Beatles, Smiths), The Cure, oh it goes on. Most recently I love Lisa Mitchell, an Australian singer who isn't very well known. Her music is so... cute.
*Art is another obvious one, since it's everywhere! My uncle always buys vintage art and unique paintings for me sometimes and it really gives me some amazing ideas.
*My childhood is another. I had a weird childhood; good times and bad times. I love how simple childhood is, I always believed in fairy tales! I was a sucker for them. Especially Sleeping Beauty!
*Nature is another influence. I grew up in Australia where there is so much nature everywhere around you and so there's many amazing locations. I now live in Kent where I am still surrounded by beautiful locations. This is mainly why I completely prefer location shoots.
*People are a major influence for me too. Someone's mind and even one word a person speaks can spark an idea. I love unconventional beauty.
*There's so many other artists which I LOVE but there's just, well, way too many to list!
