About the photograph.

Am y ffotograffau.

 

This is Olivia, a model I booked for a two-hours outdoors photo-shoot, in the countryside north of Newport (Welsh: Casnewydd).

 

Olivia is wearing a winter outfit containing of a Size S black faux fur jacket with leopard patterns collar and cuffs, from Leana of London. The company is likely to have been a manufacturer or a trader, but there is not much details about Leana, and the company may have closed down before the Internet became popular.

 

She is also wearing a white cowl neck jumper, the design of the cowl gives the illustration of wearing a scarf, along with black trousers, and white ankle height trainers.

 

In the photo, Olivia is posing by leaning against the back of the Freelander, with her left arm resting on the spare wheel, and her left foot leaning on the bumper.

 

The vehicle is a 2005 Land Rover Freelander.

 

It is a diesel 2.0L Td4 SE model with manual gearbox, and a BMW M47 engine. The tyres are BF Goodrich T/A KO2 All Terrain tyres on steel wheels. The Freelander was an entry-level Land Rover from 1997 to 2006, before being replaced by the Freelander 2 until 2015.

 

As Olivia was booked for two-hours, we were at a different location only for 50 minutes before coming over to this location, and spent another 50 minutes here.

 

 

What is this all about?

 

This is the first in a series of a long-term project I started working on, which is called Project: Freelander Ladies. It is a variation of the so called Land Rover Girls type of photographs. Generally, the majority of the Land Rover Girls kind of photos tend to be of younger women posing next to mostly either the Series or the Defender production models, and less common are the Discovery or Range Rover models. There are barely enough photos of women posing next to a Freelander, so my aim is to create some, specially for the Freelander owners and fans to enjoy.

 

In addition to this being a “cars and girls” kind of photography which is the main role, there are other roles, including photographs needed for a graphic design project.
