Sydney Jo Jackson
My twist on beautiful model, singer and dancer Sydney Jo Jackson, who was a real pleasure to work with. I was also impressed by the professionalism of the delightful Nicola Hamilton who came over to do the make up at very short notice.
Part of the brief was to produce some B/W versions, so after burning much midnight oil just to see how things turn out, this is my first ‘print’, abeit a digital one.

Oh John….I just love your work! Very inspirational indeed. Everything about this is pure perfection :)

Thank you Shelly, you are always so kind. Sydney is very versatile and this is a different style from anything she has in her book so I hope she will like it! You saw it first on RB! LOL. :-))

Stunning work John. She should be pleased with the result.
John Hooton replied
Thank you so much Gail. I hope Nicola likes it too as these are also for her book. I thought she did a cracking job and I will be posting a completely different look of Sydney soon. Gotta get a few zzzzzs first!!

Enjoyed the Black and White image over the colour gave some added excersie to the brain….

Thank you very much Larry, your opinion is appreciated.

Love this even better than the colour, the lighting is superb and really sets the photo off.
