It’s not often that I get to work on creative shoots as I’m largely an art director for commercial shoots. I was really pleased to be asked to work on this shoot for Beauty Scene as the stylist by my friend Mira Parmar, who is an excellent celebrity make-up artist. I was thrilled to pull beautifully elegant bodywear from Wolford, Raine and Bea and Emma Harris. The jewellery for the shoot was all from fine jewellers and ran the gamut from minimalist pieces by Irena Chmura to the actual Royal Engagement ring by Garrard. We shot diamonds by Marco Bicego, Artic Circle Diamonds, Lily Gabriella and a stunning topaz halo necklace by Victoria Barker. It was an expensive day to say the least… we even had security for the diamonds on set. I must admit I could’t resist trying on a few things and let’s just say I’m saving my pennies…
