so of course. . . it was my Birthday this week at long last!
Can't believe i'm actually 20 now! absolutely insane!!! i'm still about 8 in my head i think!
I got some really lovely Birthday messages though, I woke up to dozens on Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr which was nice, so big thanks to all of you that wished me a Happy Birthday on Tuesday
also apologies for the disappearing act i've pulled over the past few days! Birthday's make me very grumpy and i just couldn't think of anything to blog about!
anyway. . .
today i have some awesome photos to share with you all!
over at the 'Sweet Ginger Emporium' they've been busy whipping up an amazing fashion shoot to showcase some of the shops super duper handmade items!
the clothes and accessories were modeled by Shauna McCallion and Sarah Hendy,
dresses by the talented Jonee Fisher (+ some funky up-cycled pieces by Ciara Kilgallon and Julie James)
accessories by Danielle Lowell, Janet Withey and Jade Boylan (aka me!)
this was the result. . .
pretty darn AMAZING right!!!
Phil very VERY kindly sent me a set of the photos to put on here but obviously, full copyright belongs to him so do not, under ANY circumstances copy of steal these pictures. . . because he will hunt you down and beat you with a light stand or camera tripod!
seriously. . . he will! so don't even think about nabbing any of these lovely shots!
also, i suggest you go and check out some more of Phil's amazing photography right now via this link, just keep scrolling down the page for more and more amazingness! - Phil Kneen
