Styling for photoshoot page
Notes:
Alice - please do get involved with the backdrop styling if you want to.
The photos of our models are just for illustration - so you know what they look like.
Once we have clothes, please feel free to be involved in their headgear - if we need to source hats or flowercrowns or real flowers in their hair.
The whole shoot is as you can see full of colour and sophisticated but bohemian without being trendy, at least thats the aim!
We will have some rugs down also for one of the sets.
Equally if you see a jumpsuit alternative or something else for them to wear do feel free to explore this. As long as its either secondhand, preloved or vintage or consciously/ethically made I'm really open.
We could borrow clothes, shoes, accessories and props from Emmaus.
Rachel Lane-Pyle will do hair and makeup, and could use real flowers for one of them possibly...
Where you see things missing, such as a supplier for headgear for example or one for high end vintage dresses, I have contacted a fair few people so no leads currently, but am still trying.
We may need to source a shirt or a t-shirt for the male acrobat, at some point.

Our Studio 54 couple:
Tammy and Samantha
Tammy size 8, height 5ft 5inch
Samantha sample size 12, height 5ft 3inch
Backdrop - indoors as pictured
Hexagonal backdrop to have lightbulbs but no macrame
Could be a Phannatiq dress (in another colour to Suzannes) for one of the models.
Thinking maybe turbans for both or for one of them
Our 1950's Mad Man Couple:
Emily and Wayne
Emily Size 12. I really hope we can find something glam enough - she may be able to help us there herself
Wayne Size chest 40, waist 34, inside leg 29, collar 16.5, height 5ft 7inch, shoes size 7
We will have a real harpist and have asked PollyandPetal to come up with something with a similar vibe to the pink and orange backdrop
Our Burning Man Couple:
Suzanne and Renee
Suzanne Size 12 (she said just about) she is very keen she has something gathered at the waist, I said don't worry we have Alice on board!
Renee Size Medium, height 5ft 11inch, waist 30, leg 32
We will have real acrobats possibly on stilts or on hoops above them as backdrop, and also if the venue allows it we could have fire sticks
