CHASE...

CHASE magazine monthly feature

I cannot wait to introduce you to a wonderful project I have recently had the privilege to work on.

 CHASE magazine is the North Eats newest fashion and lifestyle magazine.

 The brain child of the truly inspirational Lisa Elliott (she's put everything into starting a magazine from scratch, funded solely by herself... if that's not girl power, then I don't know what is?!)

The magazine aims to highlight the beautiful, inspirational fashion that is available to us in the North and to expose a city that is a hub of style, creativity and art.
Wonderful photo shoots, event reviews and compelling features all taking place in and around the North East make this magazine so very special.

With a team consisting of some of the best creative's in the North; Chris Davis of Specular , Marie Harkness of Harkness, UNIT44, Carly Musleh of Beautysauce, Georgia  Claire of Georgia Claire Photography Daniel Bonar of Daniel Bonar Salon and...me of well, here! This project is only going to get bigger and better.

I have a monthly double page spread in the magazine, sort of like my blog.
It consists of things I'm loving, fashion, trends, outfit posts and everything in between so you can catch up with what I'm up to- I will also be contributing some features, art directing and styling photo shoots with aforementioned creative's.

The magazine is free and distributed  all over the City so you can pick one up in any coffee shop, boutique, restaurant, personal shopping suit... even through your front door if you're lucky ;)

Another shoot collaboration with the painfully talented Chris Davis of Specular for The Sunday Sun.

This particular shoot was with actress, Lauren O'niel (of the match.com advert- "girl on the platforms smile") She was such a sweetheart and so much fun to work with.

The theme of the shoot was hollywood 1920's... so you can imagine my excitement! Composure was definitely needed when I was let loose in the department store whilst pulling clothes.

I went for glamour of the highest order with a variety of Ghost dresses that dripped off the body like molton, liquid gold (daydreams of wedding dresses ensued... don't worry, marriage is not even slightly on the cards yet, but a gal just can't help herself when faced with this kind of impossibly fitting gown.)
Smokey eyes and deep waved finger curls completed the look.

 The location was in an old Theatre in the city centre and the rooms were so grand it felt as though we were actually present 'of the time'. It was absolutely divine and probably a little more of an opportunity for me to realise my dreams of being in a Fitzgerald novel, I know, I know...
