It's been a while since I posted some sports luxe excellence with END. Clothing on the blog, so today I'm back with their latest piece on the most recent Adidas x Stella McCartney collab. Since 2005 Stella McCartney has been bringing sleek cuts with eco-concious constructions to Adidas' high performance sportswear for multiple killer collections.
This seasons pieces are no different with innovation and the environment underpinning some great athleisure creations. Organic cotton and recycled materials come together as gym staples ready to elevate your workout wardrobe alongside...
You might recall me blogging back in the spring about an incredible British Brand where local seamstresses create sustainable linens, Freya Lillie. That's because we were looking behind the scenes on location at their AW21 shoot, which has now been published in Flanelle Magazine just in time for us to get in the autumnal spirit! You can get a glimpse of their latest line of luxury linens that are made to order and fit your body like a glove. Whilst these may be an Autumn release, the gorgeous breathable fabrics are wardrobe staples for all year round.
It was my first time using some new Stila...
Take a deep breath and watch this little clip to transport yourself a sunny beach day get away with your other half, adorned with the finest jewellery in dazzling bright colours, what a dream! If you hadn't guessed already, it's another behind the scenes blog to show a day in the life of Jo on location, longside some of the stunning released images too. This time I'm with Ruby and Oscar for their latest summer collection - Colour Pop!
I always look forward to it when the opportunity comes up to work with Ruby and Oscar, I've been lucky enough to have done a couple campaigns...
The sun might be gracing us with plenty of its presence lately, but it certainly wasn't for this Gold Boutique summer shoot back in the end of April! Out on location in the hip area of Newcastle, luckily for us the Ouseburn boasts some super cool graffiti filled arches and walkways that perfectly reflect the intended vibe for the final images. They offered an amazing backdrop and some refuge from the heavens opening before heading to the studio for some close-ups.
When I was considering the make-up I looked over the moodboards I was sent and really felt instantly inspired by the street style...
One of the many amazing aspects of my business it that I get to meet some really interesting people. It's such a wonderful opportunity to sit one to one with talented and brilliant humans to have a chit chat with them whilst I create their make-up looks ready for the day ahead. I've lost count of the admirable women I have been fortunate enough to work with, but working with Hilary to create new headshots was certainly up there as one of the most inspiring women in business!
I met Hilary Dunne many years ago and of course we clicked straight away, both of us being strong willed business women...
Dare I even mention Autumn Winter 2021 clothing? I know we haven't even had our great British summer of freedom we're all hoping for yet, but over on location with Freya Lillie we're getting a head start on crunchy leaves and sweater weather for a shoot featuring their AW21 range.
Obviously, I'm not gonna be showcasing the collection for them, the professional images will be released when they're launching the line in August. However it's such a thrill to be back at work that I was excited to show you these behind the scenes sneak peaks we took and chat to you about trying out some latest...
After finishing another show season earlier this year I landed back in the UK reeling with inspiration and excitement. Luckily for me that coincided with an opportunity to work with some new make-up I'd yet to try. I teamed up with coveted photographer Lee Scullion to put brush to skin and dip into my creative energy with a handful of new Shiseido products.
We wanted to create a photo set with japanese influences full of spirit that captured the essence of the moment with a warm and soft focus on the eyes as the windows to the soul. Beauty Modé is the crossroads where spirituality meets cosmetic...
I am so lucky to work with so many clients and photoshoots and one of my all time favorite clients is Rock N Rose. I have been working with Rock N Rose for many years now and always get excited when I create the looks for their latest collections.

Skincare: Evolve
