It’s always fun to shoot with young Miss Buckitt; she’s full of creative ideas & very bendy, which is always a winning combination 
Plus she lives near me in East London so is handy.
The plan for this shoot was to shoot something involving wax, play around with gels ( I keep my place neutrally coloured so as to match what the model brings, but it’s nice to change things round), & to see just how close Charlie’s legs could get to her ears.
This shot involved melting candles directly onto Charlie’s chin (ouch!) It was her idea, I don’t generally go round inflicting pain on my models.
For the gel shots, I lit the room with a pink gel , & used two striplight soft boxes on Charlie, with egg crates over then to control the light spill. The overall effect seems strangely flamingo-like.
This was probably the bendiest of all shots. She doesn’t train or anything, she’s naturally this way.
Attempting to look all sweet & innocent. Almost pulling it off, the lack of clothes probably doesn’t help.
This is a shot from further back so you can get an idea of the lighting set-up.
And finally, this is George, who helps me set up the lights, & saves the model from having to stand there while I fiddle about trying to get the right effect.
