New Editorial. Cake Magazine. Wish I Could

Out this week in Cake Magazine is another collaboration of mine with the fabulous duo of AL&K Photography. The Wish I Could Editorial is inspired by the pared back aesthetic of the late, great Corinne Day's early work. The styling and beauty are minimalist, the look often focusing on a single luxurious piece, such as the cashmere cardigan in the shot above. Featuring the stunning Vanessa Jobb of Premier Model Management the shoot had an all female crew on the day including Make Up by Shino Ariizumi and Hair by Michiko Yoshida. I think the result is an intimate snapshot of a girl, home alone, unselfconscious and lost in thought. Click the image below to see the entire editorial on Cake-mag.com

Jack of all Trades, Master of Some

Being head of a small company you quickly realise that your responsibilities lie far outside of the tasks in your main job description. Hence I am web-designing away at ten thirty on a Tuesday night. I won't lie I've always enjoyed fiddling with Photoshop and pals, and taking on these tasks has some advantages. In this case I can update my site as and when I fancy, making multiple tweaks without having to send seven emails and have a twenty minute phone call with a webmaster (if that is the correct term, que a barrage of corrections from real techies). So for now I am my own webmaster, one day I will have to devolve responsibility for tasks like these but for now I will continue to be a control freak. The debate about devolving responsibility, delegation, work/life balance and productive use of time I will leave for another post. Pop over to my website today to check out newly released editorial for Berlin based Kaltblut magazine.
