It’s trendy I swear

I am a Stan.

I am a Stan for Neo.

I just rate this guy like you wouldn’t believe.

Like IMG where you at? I’m pretty sure you’re the best in the biz and Neo is the best.

I met Neo through the wonderful Kirsty Bunny Management (and as I’m typing I’m realising I haven’t replied to an email there eek) when I was searching for talent for a previous shoot. Kirsty was seriously the most helpful industry rep I had dealt with. She asks for mood boards and sends talent she thinks will work and does everything she can to make it work for both parties.

Don’t you expect really, really, ridiculously good-looking people to be a bit arrogant?

Same.

But I think it’s safe to say this shoot wouldn’t have happened had that been the case. Like who’s got the time?

So we shot the other shoot (blog to come) and I said to everyone OK I owe you a shoot! You gave your time and expertise for me for your portfolios, and I’d like to do the same for you.

Neo’s Portfolio Shoot

It started off as this, it very quickly became BOSS. Another gem joined – Sheshe Sustainable Stylist. I’m definitely the bottom of the heap where talent is concerned here. This addition turned an idea into a glorious fashion-fiesta with looks from The Service Depot, Underlena and Neo + Sheshe’s own incredible collection items.

Oh oh oh and also!

I got to play with a light. Oh small fry, little lass, small fry – alas! I loved shooting with a strobe, why had I not explored this before? So much joy! My on-camera connection to the trigger was a bit fickle and I fixed that (thanks for answering my call Jono) – that and the size of the soft-box (large) fitting in the size of the studio (small) were the only challenges there. Excited to add to my kit. Goodby new kitchen…let there be light!
