My icon is pinched from HB Au Mar 08, a photo of a lovely model taken by Simon Lekias.

I mainly post bad photos I've taken of published fashion images that I like or find interesting. While I'm appalled at the manipulative nature of fashion marketing and advertising, I'm equally delighted by the sumptuous images the industry creates. (Well. Ok. So I'm more delighted than appalled ..)

Much as I enjoy the high quality, scanned images that other people post, I prefer to shoot glam in its natural habitat - the mag. Yes, I don't have a scanner. I'm a lifetime member of the global movement Models-not-celebrities-on-fashion-magazine-covers. Or I would be if there was such a thing.

Have a great day!
