I dream of red letters and snakes
I had the most delightful pleasure of being able to take a portrait of the most gorgeous and talented Bell last night. She was so kind as to let me into her home, but not only that, help me drag in all my equipment and then let me rearrange her lounge room, and all of it done with a big smile, good humor and the offer of a glass of red wine. Which of course I took with great delight.
Thank you so much sweetheart for allowing me to invade your space. I only hope I did your beauty and light justice with my humble photography….

ahh I am so glad you said that, cause that was exactly what I was trying to do. it is good to hear feedback from the people who know her and can see what I see in her and that it translated in the image. thanks so much Nic x

Good golly, what an incredible portrait. Even if I didn’t know Bell, I would know and feel the enchantment and words and spells in this way you’ve captured her, darling. This is a sight for sore eyes, how sensitive and apt it is too. Completely evocative, bravo honey x
jemimalovesbigted replied
thanks so much Holly. such wonderful praise and puts my mind at ease knowing that I have managed to share Bell successfully as that was exactly what I was aiming for.
hope your travels have been wonderful and you have landed safely in Manchester. you are going to have so much fun over there. x

Sweetheart, what a fabulous memory of such a fun night…..watching you weave your magic with the lights and props, seeing your immaculate photographer’s eye at work. All I had to do was pour the wine and play with words – a perfect night for me! Thank you for your patience and lovely company, and for the little red snake on my windowsill. I’d do it again anytime! x x
jemimalovesbigted replied
haha, your the best. do you like it? I hope you do. I am still working on the other one that we spoke about, it will take a little longer to put together, but the shots look fantastic. be careful on offering your modeling services so freely, I may just have to take you up again on that one day. =D xx

The famous “red notebooks”, I see-well done for capturing the elusive, unique, yet totally enthralling “Bell” in her natural inhabitat-a great series.
