Katie Higgins


A month after I had taken up shooting models, and pursuing photography as a career, I had worked with Katie Higgins for three days in a row. Her being a Fine Art student also, we had both collaborated our creative ideas, shooting from morning till night, with the assistance of my inspirational aunty, Eleanor, to create wonderful images that we shall always be proud of. Katie willingly modelled in a freezing cold lake, lay upside down on a sofa and even "levitated," proving her determination to get the perfect image. This model is truly a pleasure to work with.






And, here we are, five months since the last time we worked together, shooting rather strange portraits. My style of photography has clearly developed and changed (compare above and below images - taken 5 months between each other) but one thing had remained the same, the mutual respect and ability we both had to work with together, (with a few giggles and 'the photographers turn to lie down and pose for demonstration' along the way). Earlier today we shot a tasteful 'nude' or 'false nude' shoot, including baby powder, mesh cloth and a vintage model of a ship. Katie's unusual, (and stunning) features were truly perfect for this shoot and were what made these photos unique and memorable. The idea was to create a feeling of loneliness, alienness, with a hint of freedom. I am absolutely in love with these images and I hope to create more like these in the near future. And, I most certainly will be working with this talented model again.
