PHOTO SHOOT

It has been a very busy week, what with meeting The Sartorialist, going to The Peter O'Brien for A-Wear fashion show, ( a beautiful final collection, head to A-Wear soon so as not to be dissapointed, The black coat with ruffle detail is a personal favourite, only €200 ) The David La Chapelle exhibition at The Sebastian Guiness Gallery, The Theatre to see The Blue Dragon and doing a new photo shoot! Life is busy with culture. Here is a little taster of the concept for the shoot.

I took inspiration  from 15th and 16th century portraits such as..

Lady with an Ermine by Leonardo Da Vinci


 Laura Battiferri by Bronzino

We shot in the basement of Turbotstown House in Westmeath, big Thank you to Cha cha and Peter.
