Eufloria: With Photography by Danniella Jaine and Five other Lovely Ladies.


So a couple of months ago I was given the opportunity to create a stunning set of pictures, with six of the loveliest ladies I've ever had the pleasure of working with!

All images belong solely to the designers, models and photographer who created them. Do not repost these images without gaining permission from those involved in creating them

 The project was entitled "Eufloria" and was the brain child of the fantastic Photography by Danniella Jaine; a fashion photographer of great skill, with a large online following, who sourced the models and items to shoot herself. The shoot was intended to remove some of the stigma surrounding S&M by introducing a level of purity and innocence; using flowers and daisy chains as bonds.

Headdress and Floral Eye-Patch by Reinka.


We also had the honour of working with two very talented independent designers; The lovely Reinka, who designed and hand made all the beautiful Floral Headdresses and FlutterbyDaisy, who created the Skirts and Pixie top worn by Miss Violet.

The roll I was given was Stylist. I helped dress the ladies, and provided the model's (and photographer's) choice of corsets from my personal Corsets-UK collection (and had the pleasure of lacing them up, hehe). I also helped to choose the location, my favourite shoot place on Earth, the gorgeous grounds of Keele University/ Keele Hall (with great thanks to the people in the Reception, who kindly allowed us a large dressing space and storage for our spare equipment for free).

The models I was lucky enough to work with were:
Burlesque performer and Accordion player Lux DeLioux.
Stunningly willowy, European Artiste Miss Violet,
and the Cage Dancing, Latex Loving Eve Elle.

As the shoot progressed, it started to take on it's own form, becoming more an expression of the ladies strength and beauty than the idea originally intended. I was blown away, not by the near gale force winds, but by the professionalism of the four lovelies I worked with that day. The weather was most certainly not on our side, yet the girls managed to hold a pose and shake off the bitter wind better than most, while Danniella's ever steady hands captured some of the best pictures I've seen in a long time.

I Particularly love this picture as it shows the Individuality of each lovely model.
Plus the way the skirts fall on each of them is just stunning.
 
Please do go and take a look at the ladies' websites (as linked above). Reinka and FlutterbyDaisy have some examples of their stunning pieces for sale, with links to their online stores. While Photography by Danniella Jaine has her extensive portfolio. All images are used only with the expressed permission of all involved.

Hoping I will soon be able to move onto a new topic. My next post will be either a Club Review or (preferably) of the Squeakier, Latex variety! Stay tuned.
